Fig. 15 . 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. In conjunction with the seat belts, the front
airbag sys

tem gives the driver and the front
passenger additional protection for the head
and chest in the event of a severe frontal col-
lision.
Their special design allows the controlled es-
cape of the propellant gas when an occupant
puts pressure on the bag. Thus, the head and
chest are protected by the airbag. After the
collision, the airbag deflates sufficiently to
allow visibility.
