An inflated air bag slows down and reduces
the movement of the occupant. When the
occupant makes contact with a front air bag
or head-thorax air bag (cabriolet only),
hot gas flows out of the inflated front air
bags and head-thorax air bags (cabriolet
only). This reduces the load on the occu-
pant’s head and upper body. These air bags
are consequently deflated after the acci-
dent.
Driver front air bag/passenger front air
bag The front air bags are designed to reduce
the potential of injury in certain frontal
impacts.
Driver front air bag and passenger front
air bag are deployed
R at the start of an accident with high
vehicle deceleration in the longitudinal direction
R independently of other air bags in the
vehicle being deployed
R never in the event of a rollover, unless
high vehicle deceleration in the longi-
tudinal direction is detected
i The front air bags in this vehicle have
been designed to inflate in two stages.
This allows the air bag to have different rates of inflation that are based on the
rate of relevant vehicle deceleration
and a fastened or unfastened seat belt as assessed by the air bag control unit.
On the passenger side, the front air bag
deployment is additionally influenced
by the passenger’s weight category as
identified by the Occupant Classifica-
tion System (OCS) (Y page 39).
The lighter the passenger side occupant,
the higher the vehicle deceleration rate required for the second stage inflation
of the air bag.
The air bags will not deploy in impacts
which do not exceed the system’s deploy- ment thresholds. In such instances, the seat
belts are designed to protect you.
The passenger air bag will only be
deployed if
R the system, based on OCS weight sensor
readings, senses that the passenger seat
is occupied and the 40
indicator lamp is not lit (Y page 41)
R the impact exceeds a preset deployment
threshold
The driver front air bag is located in the
steering wheel housing, the passenger
front air bag above the glove box. :
Driver front air bag
; Passenger front air bag
Knee bags :
Driver’s knee bag
; Passenger knee bag
The knee bags are designed to provide
increased protection for the driver and
passenger against the risk of injuries to
the knees, thighs and lower legs. The knee
bags are located on the lower instrument 36
Occupant safety>> Safety.

The thorax-pelvis side air bags are inte-
grated into the driver and passenger seat
backrests. :
Thorax-pelvis side air bags Occupant Classification System
The Occupant Classification System (OCS)
automatically turns the passenger front air bag on or off based on the classified occu-pant weight category determined by weight
sensor readings from the passenger seat.
i Based on the classified occupant
weight category determined by weight
sensor readings from the passenger seat,
the system does also deactivate
R head-thorax air bag (cabriolet)
R the window curtain air bag (coupé)
R the thorax-pelvis side air bag (coupé)
R the seat Emergency Tensioning Devi-
ces
R the seat belt force limiter.
Occupants must sit properly belted in a
position that is as upright as possible with their back against the seat backrest and
feet on the floor to be correctly classified.
If the occupant’s weight is transferred to
another object in the vehicle (e.g. by lean-
ing on armrests), the OCS may not be able to properly approximate the occupant’s
weight category.
i If the seat, including the trim cover and
cushion, needs to be serviced in any way, take the vehicle to an authorized elec- tric drive smart center. Only seat acces-
sories approved by smart may be used.
Both driver and the passenger should
always use the 40indicator
lamp as an indication of whether or not
the passenger is properly positioned
(Y page 41). G
WARNING
If the 40indicator lamp illu-
minates when an adult or someone larger
than a small individual is in the passenger seat, have the passenger re-position him-
self or herself in the seat until the
40indicator lamp goes out.
In the event of a collision, the air bag con- trol unit will not allow passenger front air
bag deployment when the OCS has classified
the passenger seat occupant as being up to
or less than the weight of a typical
12‑month‑old child in a standard child
restraint, or if the passenger seat is
sensed as being empty.
When the OCS senses that the passenger seat occupant is classified as being up to or
less than the weight of a typical
12‑month‑old child in a standard child
restraint, the 40indicator
lamp will illuminate when the ignition is
switched on and remain illuminated, indi-
cating that the passenger front air bag is
deactivated.
When the OCS senses that the passenger seat is classified as being empty, the
40indicator lamp will illu-
minate and remains illuminated.
When the OCS senses that the passenger seat occupant is classified as being heavier
than the weight of a typical 12‑month‑old
child seated in a standard child restraint
or as being a small individual (such as a
young teenager or a small adult), the
40indicator lamp will illu-
minate for approximately 4 seconds when
the ignition is switched on and then,
depending on occupant weight sensor read- Occupant safety

Once the anti-theft warning system has
been armed, a visual and audible alarm is
triggered when
R someone opens a door or the tailgate
R someone enters the vehicle’s interior
R there is motion inside the vehicle
R someone attempts to raise the vehicle
The alarm will also be triggered when
unlocking and opening the driver’s door
with the key.
i The alarm will stay on, even if the
driver’s door is immediately closed. For
canceling the alarm, see (Y page 49).
Close the windows and the tailgate before
arming the alarm system. Make sure there
are no moving objects inside the vehicle. X

flashes rapidly. The anti-theft warning
system arms after about 25 seconds. When the anti-theft warning system is armed, warning system indicator lamp
:
flashes about every three seconds.
i You can also arm the anti-theft warning
system by locking the vehicle without
using the remote control (Y page 177).

Exterior lamp switch
For safety, smart recommends that you
drive with your low‑beam headlamps on
during the day. In certain countries, local laws dictate that low‑beam headlamps are
switched on automatically during opera-
tion of the vehicle.
i If you drive in countries where vehi-
cles drive on the other side of the road
than the country in which the vehicle is
registered, you must have the headlamps
modified for symmetrical low beams.
Relevant information can be obtained at any authorized electric drive smart cen-
ter. Exterior lamp switch
