Seats, restraints49Curtain airbag system
The curtain airbag system consists of an airbag in the roof frame on each
side. The location is identified by the
word AIRBAG on the roof pillars.
The curtain airbag system is triggered in the event of a side-on impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the head in the event of a
side-on impact considerably.
9 Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
The hooks on the handles in the
roof frame are only suitable for
hanging up light articles of
clothing, without coat hangers. Do not keep any items in these
clothes.
Airbag deactivation
The front passenger airbag system must be deactivated for a child
restraint system on the passenger
seat according to the instructions in
the tables 3 54.
The other airbag systems, the belt
pretensioners and all driver airbag
systems will remain active.The front passenger airbag system can be deactivated via a key-
operated switch on the passenger
side of the instrument panel.
Use the ignition key to choose the
switch position:
* OFF:front passenger airbag is
deactivated and will not
inflate in the event of a
collision. Control indicator
* OFF illuminates
continuously in the centre
consoleV ON:front passenger airbag is
active

50Seats, restraints9Danger
Deactivate passenger airbag only
in combination with the use of a
child restraint system, subject to
the instructions and restrictions in
the tables 3 54.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal
injury for a person occupying a
seat with a deactivated front
passenger airbag.
If control indicator V illuminates for
approx. 60 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the front passenger
airbag system will inflate in the event
of a collision.
If both control indicators are
illuminated at the same time, there is
a system failure. The status of the
system is not discernible, therefore
no person is allowed to occupy the
front passenger seat. Contact a
workshop immediately.
Change status only when the vehicle is stopped with the ignition off.
Status remains until the next change.

Child restraint systems9 Danger
If using a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag system for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated. This also applies to certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in
the tables 3 54.
Airbag deactivation 3 49.
Airbag label 3 44.
We recommend a child restraint system which is tailored specifically to the vehicle. For further information,
contact your workshop.
When a child restraint system is being
used, pay attention to the following
usage and installation instructions
and also those supplied with the child
restraint system.

Seats, restraints51Always comply with local or national
regulations. In some countries, the
use of child restraint systems is
forbidden on certain seats.
Child restraint systems can be
fastened with:
● Three-point seat belt
● ISOFIX brackets
● Top-tether anchors
Three-point seat belt
Child restraint systems can be
fastened by using a three-point seat
belt 3 54.ISOFIX brackets
On rear seats
Fasten vehicle-approved ISOFIX
child restraint systems to the ISOFIX
mounting brackets. Specific vehicle
ISOFIX child restraint system
positions are marked in the table by IL
3 54.
The vehicle is equipped with guides in
the backrests to support the
installation of the child restraint
system.
ISOFIX mounting brackets on the
rear seats are indicated by the
ISOFIX logo on the backrest.
Open the flaps of the guides before
mounting a child restraint system.
After removing the child restraint
system, close the flaps.
On front passenger seat
Place the child restraint system in the
centre of the seat and push
backwards. Make sure that the child
restraint system is engaged properly.
Top-tether anchors
On rear seats
Top-tether anchors are marked with
the symbol : for a child seat.

52Seats, restraints
In addition to the ISOFIX mounting
brackets, fasten the Top-tether strap
to the Top-tether anchors.
ISOFIX child restraint systems of
universal category positions are
marked in the table by IUF 3 54.
On front passenger seat
An additional fastening point is
located on the passenger seat rail in the rear foot well.Selecting the right system
The rear seats are the most
convenient location to fasten a child
restraint system.
Children should travel facing
rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This ensures that the child's
backbone, which is still very weak, is
under less strain in the event of an accident.
Suitable are restraint systems that
comply with valid UN ECE
regulations. Check local laws and
regulations for mandatory use of child restraint systems.
Ensure that the child restraint system to be installed is compatible with the
vehicle type.
Refer to the tables on the following
pages, the instructions supplied with
the child restraint system and the vehicle type list of non-universal child
restraint systems.
The following child restraints are
recommended for the following
weight classes:
● Group 0, Group 0+
Maxi Cosi Cabriofix plus Easyfix,
for children up to 13 kg
● Group I
OPEL Duo, for children from 13 kg to 18 kg in this group
Ensure that the mounting location of
the child restraint system within the
vehicle is correct, see following
tables.
Allow children to enter and exit the
vehicle only on the side facing away
from the traffic.
When the child restraint system is not
in use, secure the seat with a seat belt or remove it from the vehicle.

Seats, restraints53Note
Do not affix anything on the child
restraint systems and do not cover
them with any other materials.
A child restraint system which has
been subjected to stress in an
accident must be replaced.
