Front passenger airbag located in

the s

g wheel ››› Fig. 16 and the airbag
for the front passenger is located in the dash
panel ››› Fig. 17. Airbags are identified by the
word “AIRBAG”.
When the driver and front passenger airbags
are deployed, the covers remain attached to
the steering wheel and dashboard, respec-
tively ››› Fig. 16 ››› Fig. 17.
In conjunction with the seat belts, the front
airbag system gives the driver and the front
passenger additional protection for the head and chest in the event of a severe frontal col-
lision.
The s

pecial design of the airbag allows the
controlled escape of the propellant gas when
an occupant puts pressure on the bag. Thus,
the head and chest are surrounded and pro-
tected by the airbag. After the collision, the
airbag deflates sufficiently to allow visibility.

text “AIRBAG” in the upper region of the
backrests.
In conjunction with the seat belts, the side
airbag system provides additional protection
for the upper body in the event of a severe
side collision.
In a side collision, the side airbags reduce
the risk of injury to passengers to the areas
of the body facing the impact. In addition to
their normal function of protecting the occu-
pants in a collision, the front and rear outer
seat belts also hold the passengers in the
event of a side collision; this is how these air-
bags provide maximum protection.

em mounting using the vehicle seat belt.
You can secure a child seat to the rear seat or
front passenger seat in the following ways:
● Child seats in groups 0 to 3 c
an be secured
with a seat belt.
● Child seats for groups 0, 0+ and 1 can be
fa

stened without seatbelts, using the “ISO-
FIX” system, using the “ISOFIX” ››› page 18
securing rings.
● During installation of some models of
group I, II and III chi
ld seats in the rear seat,
difficulty may arise in mounting given that
the seat comes into contact with the head re- straint. In this case, adjust the height of the
head r

estraint or remove it from the seat fol-
lowing the instructions in the corresponding
chapter ›››
 page 128. Once you remove
the child seat, replace the head restraint in
its original position. » 17

*:
“ISOFIX” and Top Tether child seat mounting system* Child seats can be secured quickly, easily
and s
af
ely

on the rear outer seats with the
“ISOFIX” and Top Tether* system.
Two “ISOFIX” retaining rings are fitted on
each rear seat. In some vehicles, the rings
are secured to the seat frame and, in others,
they are secured to the rear floor. The “ISO- FIX” rings are located between the rear seat
back
rest and the seat cushioning. The Top
Tether* rings are located at the rear of the
backrests of the rear seats (behind the seat
backrest or in the boot). To understand the compatibility of the "ISO-
FIX" syst
ems in the vehicle, consult the table
below.
The body weight permitted and information
regarding sizes A to F is indicated on the la-
bel on child seats with “ universal” or “semi-
universal” certification. 18
