OPDS: Occupant Position Detection System - measures occupant height and seat position to determine if the passenger seat-back airbag should be disabled. This seat-back airbag has an indicator lamp on the instrument cluster that illuminates when an occupant is detected in an unsafe position or if their backs are not pressed firmly against the seat back.
Conditions that may turn off the seat-back airbag include a small child leaning with his or her head in the deployment path of the side airbag, or an adult who is slouched forward (his or her back not fully contacting the seat) and leaning into the deployment path of the seat-back airbag. Either of these situations may injure the occupants if the seat-back airbag is allowed to deploy.
