The system’s integrated self-diagnostics
allows faults to be quickly remedied. Important
zDo not affix or place accessories or other
objects within the deployment zone of
the belt tensioners (in the area of the belt
buckle). Do not make any modifications
to belt tensioner components and the
inertia real device because this will
invalidate the vehicle type approval. zThe belt tensioner and airbag system
control electronics can be found in the
centre console area. In order to avoid
malfunctions, do not store magnetic
objects in this area.
zWhen using the rear seat, make sure that
the components of the front seat belt are
not damaged by shoes or other objects.
Not dirt must get into the inertia reel of
the seat belt.
zWe recommend that you have the seats
removed by a workshop.
zThe belt tensioners only deploy once,
which can be detected by illumination of
the control indicator v. Have deployed
belt tensioners replaced by a workshop.
zThe applicable safety regulations must
be adhered to when the vehicle is
disposed of. The vehicle should therefore
be disposed of by a recycling company.
9 Warning
Have cause of fault remedied
immediately by a workshop.
9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of seat belts or belt buckles) can
cause the belt tensioners to deploy, with
risk of injury.

Note
zChildren under 12 years of age or 150 cm
must only travel in an appropriate child
restraint system on the seats in the rear
row 3.
zWhen transporting children, use the child
restraint systems suitable for the child’s
weight.
zBe sure that child restraint systems are
properly installed - see the instructions
accompanying the child restraint
system. zThe covers of the Opel child restraint
system can be wiped clean.
zDo not stick anything on the child
restraint systems and do not cover them
with any other materials.
zOnly allow the child to enter and exit on
the side of the vehicle facing away from
the road.
zA child restraint system which has been
subjected to stress in an accident must
be replaced.

60 Seats, InteriorImportant
zNo objects or accessories must be placed
in the area in which the airbags inflate,
as they could cause injury when the
components are deployed.
zDo not place any objects between the
airbag systems and the vehicle
occupants. Danger of injury. Do not
install a child restraint system 3 on the
front passenger seat. Danger to life.
zUse the hooks in the roof frame only to
hang up light articles of clothing or coat
hangers. Do not place any objects in the
pockets of the hanging items – risk of
injury.
zThe airbag systems and belt tensioner
control electronics can be found in the
centre console area. In order to avoid
malfunctions, do not store magnetic
objects in this area. zDo not stick anything on the steering
wheel, instrumnet panel or front seat
backrests in the vicinity of the airbags.
Do not cover any of these areas with
other materials.
zUse only a dry cloth or interior cleaner to
clean the steering wheel, instrument
panel and front seat backrests. Do not
use any aggressive cleaning agents.
zOnly protective covers which are
approved for your vehicle with side
airbag may be fitted on the front seats.
When fitting the protective covers, make
sure that the airbag units on the
outboard sides of the front seat
backrests are not covered.
zThe airbag systems are triggered
independently of one another
depending on the severity of the
accident and type of impact.
zEach airbag is only deployed once. Have
deployed airbags replaced by a
workshop immediately.
zThe speeds, directions of movement and
deformation properties of the vehicles,
and the properties of the obstacle
concerned, determine the severity of the
accident and triggering of the airbags.
The degree of damage to your vehicle
and the resulting repair costs alone are
not indicative that the criteria for
triggering of the airbags were met. zDo not perform any alterations on the
components of the airbag system, as this
would render the vehicle unroadworthy.
zWe recommend having the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, all panelling
parts, the door seals, the handles and
the seats removed by a workshop.
zThe applicable safety regulations must
be adhered to when the vehicle is
disposed of. The vehicle should therefore
be disposed of by a recycling company.
zAnyone weighing less than 35 kg should
seat in the rear seat.
9 Warning
As with any other object, child restaint
systems must not be carried on a
passenger’s lap. Danger to life.
9 Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an explosive
manner – risk of injury!
