The AIRBAG warning lamp is located in the right-hand part of the main instrument unit. This lamp informs the driver when a fault occurs in the Airbag system. The central warning lamp serves as a second airbag warning lamp and does not go out until all its warning inputs are normal.

The AIRBAG warning lamp is supplied with current (+15 circuit) in the main instrument unit via pin 1 (K20) of the Airbag control module.

If a fault should arise in the system, the AIRBAG warning lamp and the central warning lamp will come on and at engine speeds above 310 RPM, MIU will send a request to SID to activate the acoustic signal.

If the Airbag system has been activated - sent detonating current to the explosive charges in the gas generators - the AIRBAG Warning lamp and central warning lamp will light up and stay on.

The airbag control module lights the lamp when the ignition is turned on. If there are no faults, the lamp will go out after about 3 seconds.
