PASSENGER’S FRONT AIR BAG
fig. 15
It consists of an instant-inflating cushion
contained into a special recess in the
dashboard, this cushion has a volume big-
ger than that of the driver.
fig. 14F0R0099m
fig. 15F0R0100m
The airbags are not deployed in the event
of collisions of low severity (for which the
withholding action of the seat belts is suf-
ficient). For this reason, the seat belt must
be worn at all times. In the case of side
collisions, the seat belts hold occupants in
the correct position and prevent being
thrown out of the car by a very violent
collision.
DRIVER’S FRONT AIR BAG fig. 14
It consists of an instant-inflating cushion
contained in a special recess in the cen-
tre of the steering wheel.
Do not apply stickers or oth-
er objects on the steering
wheel, passenger side airbag cover or
side upholstery on roof. Do not place
objects on the passenger side dash-
board because these could interfere
with the correct opening of the airbag
(e.g. mobile phones) and cause severe
injury to occupants.
WARNINGIn the event of a collision, a person not
wearing a seat belt may be thrown for-
ward and con into contact with the bag
before it has fully opened. The protection
offered by the cushion is reduced in such
a case.
Front air bag may not be activated in the
following situations:
❒in collisions against highly deformable
objects not affecting the car front sur-
face (e.g. bumper collision against guard
rail, etc.);
❒jamming of the car underneath other
vehicles or protective barriers (e.g. un-
derneath a truck or a guard rail); in this
case, the bags would offer no addition-
al protection with respect to the seat
belt and their deployment is unneces-
sary. No deployment in such cases is
consequently not the sign of a fault.
