Front airbags and knees airbags
For these airbags to deploy, it re-quires a violent frontal impact ap-plied on all or part of the frontal impact zone (see illustration) from forward of the vehicle in a horizon-tal plane.
The airbag interposes itself be-tween the vehicle's front occupant and the dashboard to cushion the person from being thrown forward. The airbag thus limits the risk of trauma to the head and chest. For the driver, the knees airbag pro-tects the knees.
The front passenger’s airbag can be deactivated. See “Passenger's airbag deactivation”.
Side airbags and curtain airbags
Deployment of these airbags re-quires a violent lateral impact ap-plied on all or part of one of the lateral collision zones, coming in a horizontal plane from the side.
The role of the side airbag is to place itself between the occupant (driver or front passenger) and the door panel, thus limiting the risk of injuries to the chest.
The rear side airbags give the rear passengers (except the central passenger) the same protection as that given by the front side air-bags to the front occupants.
The role of the curtain airbag is to place itself between the front or rear occupant and the windows, thus limiting the risk of injuries to the head.
Impact detection zones
A Area of frontal impact
B. Area of side impact
These airbags may not deploy if there is only a slight collision on the side of the vehicle, or if the vehicle rolls over.
They will not deploy for a front or rear collision.
