Airbags
AIR BAGS
The air bags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
in the event of a serious collision;
they work in conjunction with the force
limiting seat belts. In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse
the front and side impacts suffered in
t h e i m p a c t d e t e c t i o n z o n e s :
-
in the event of a serious impact, the air
b a g s i n fl a t e i n s t a n t l y a n d p r o t e c t t h e
occupants of the vehicle. Immediately
a f t e r t h e i m p a c t , t h e a i r b a g s d e fl a t e
rapidly, so that they do not hinder the
visibility of the occupants nor their
possible exit from the vehicle.
- in the event of a minor or rear
impact and in certain roll-over
conditions, the air bags will not
be deployed; the seat belt alone
i s s u f fi c i e n t t o p r o v i d e m a x i m u m
protection in these situations.
The seriousness of the collision
depends on the nature of the obstacle
and the speed of the vehicle at the
moment of impact.
