Lateral airbags

In the event of a serious side impact, this system
protects the driver and front passenger to
mitigate the risk of injury to the chest between
the hip and the shoulder.
At the front, each lateral airbag is fitted in the
seat backrest frame, door side. At the rear, each
lateral airbag is fitted in the rear pillar.
Deployment
The lateral airbags are deployed on one side in
the event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone B.
The lateral airbag inflates between the hip
and shoulder of the vehicle's occupant and the
corresponding door panel.
Curtain airbags
System contributing towards greater protection
for the driver and passengers (with the exception
Have your seat belts checked regularly by a
dealer or a qualified workshop, particularly if

Airbags
General information
System designed to help improve the safety of the
occupants sitting in the front seats and the rear
outer seats, in the event of a violent collision. The
airbags supplement the action of the seat belts
equipped with a force limiting system.
Electronic detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts sustained in the impact
detection zones:
–
In the e
vent of violent impact, the airbags
deploy instantly and help better protect the
occupants of the vehicle; immediately after the
impact, the airbags deflate rapidly in order not
to hinder the visibility or the possible exit of the
occupants.
–

In the e
vent of a slight impact, a rear impact
and under certain rollover conditions, the airbags
may not deploy; only the seat belt helps to protect
you in these situations.
* For more in formation on Deactivating the front passenger airbag, refer to the corresponding section.
The seriousness of the impact depends on the
nature of the obstacle and the speed of the
vehicle at the moment of collision.
The airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only deploy once. If a
second impact occurs (during the same or a
subsequent accident), the airbag will not be
deployed again.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone
B. Side impact zone
When one or more airbags are deployed,
the detonation of the pyrotechnic charge
incorporated in the system makes a noise and
releases a small quantity of smoke.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight irritation.
The detonation noise associated with the
deployment of one or more airbags may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front airbags

This system protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front impact,
in order to limit the risk of head and chest injuries.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.
Deployment
They deploy, except the front passenger airbag if
it is deactivated*, in the event of a serious front
impact to all or part of the front impact zone A.
The front airbag inflates between the thorax and
head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the
steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard,
passenger's side, to cushion their forward
movement.

74Safety05
The front passenger airbag must be
deactivated before installing a rearward
facing child seat. Otherwise, the child risks
being seriously injured or killed if the airbag is
deployed.
