remove rod C fig. 65 from housing D with the
other, inverting the opening motion, then fit
it back into its catch;

AIRBAGThe car is fitted with front airbags for driver and
passenger, front side bags for driver and passenger
chest-shoulder protection (for versions/markets,
where provided), and window bags for protecting
the heads of front occupants.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front (driver and passenger) airbags protect
the front seat occupants in the event of head-on
impacts of medium-high severity, by placing
the bag between the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-deployment in other types of
impacts (side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
Front (driver and passenger) air bags are not a
replacement of but complementary to the seat
belts, which you are recommended to always wear,
as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat
belt move forward and may come into contact
with the bag which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is reduced in these
circumstances.Front air bags may not deploy in the following
situations:
❒frontal impacts against highly deformable
objects not involving the front surface of the car
(e.g. wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒car wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection
compared with seat belts, so their deployment
would be inappropriate. In these cases, non-
deployment does not indicate a system
malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering
wheel, on the
dashboard in the passenger side airbag area,
on side upholstery on roof and on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the
passenger side of the dashboard since they
could interfere with correct inflation of
the passenger airbag and also cause serious
injury to the passengers.
