ABSTRACT:
A disabling system is provided for a supplemental inflatable restraint system in a vehicle. The disabling system includes a seat movable forward and rearward in the vehicle. The seat has a predetermined seat position. The disabling system automatically disables the supplemental inflatable restraint system when the seat is moved forward of the predetermined seat position and automatically enables the supplemental inflatable restraint system when the seat is moved rearward of the predetermined seat position. In a preferred form of the invention, the predetermined seat position occurs when the seat is fully forward in the vehicle such that the supplemental inflatable restraint system is automatically disabled when the seat is at the fully forward position.
