Tone Generator

The air bag readiness indicator is the prime means of determining the air bag system condition. However, a series of five sets of five tones will be heard if the readiness indicator is out and a fault occurs in the system. This also means that the Supplemental Air Bag System is in need of service. The tone pattern will repeat periodically until the fault and indicator outage are serviced. Unless serviced, the Supplemental Air Bag Restraint System may not function properly in the event of an accident.
