Abstract
An occupant sensing ECU determines an occupant state on a seat by comparing occupant determination threshold values with a corresponding sensed load data value, which is originated from load sensors. The ECU stores an adjustment value, which is used to adjust a predetermined design value of each of the occupant determination threshold values. The adjustment value is a difference between an empty-state 0 point load value and a predetermined design value of the empty-state 0 point load value.
