ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for triggering a vehicle occupant restraint device, in which a sensor signal generated by a crash sensor is fed to a triggering device and to a clearing device supplying a clearing signal. The sensor signal is integrated in the clearing device and subjected to an examination algorithm. The output signal of at least one additional crash sensor is fed to the clearing device. Then, the two output signals are linked to one another and are subsequently integrated during an observation period. A clearing signal is generated when the integral exceeds a threshold value.
