How The Airbag System Works
• The Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) Module de-
termines if a frontal, side, or rollover collision is severe
enough to require the front and/or side airbags to
inflate. The front airbag inflators are designed to
provide different rates of airbag inflation from direc-
tion provided by the ORC. The ORC may also modify
the rate of inflation based on the occupant size pro-
vided by the Occupant Classification Module. The
ORC will detect roll overs, not rear impacts.
