Abstract
A gas generator or a gas bag module for a vehicle safety system has a signal emitter which is able to be stimulated by an electromagnetic exciter field applied from the exterior or by a magnetic field impulse applied from the exterior, for the emission of a signal. Such signal is detected by means of a manually movable detector (30).
