Votre véhicule est équipé de COUSSINS GONFLABLES
INTELLIGENTS (ADVANCED AIRBAGS) conçus selon les normes de
sécurité américaines applicables aux véhicules à moteur
(FMVSS208). Le boîtier électronique de coussins gonflables (ECU )
utilise les informations reçues des capteurs, etc. détaillés dans le
schéma ci-dessus de composition du système pour commander le
déploiement des coussi ns gonflables. Ces informations comprenne nt
des informations sur la gravité de la collision et les occupants. Le
déploiement rapide des coussins gonflables est obtenu au moyen
d’une réaction chimique dans les dispositifs pyrotechniques, qui
produit un gaz inoffensif permett ant d’amortir le mouvement des
occupants.
AVERTISSEMENT
■ Précautions avec les coussins gonflables SRS
Respectez les précautions suivantes concernant les coussins gon flables
SRS.
À défaut, des blessures graves, voire mortelles, pourraient s’ensuivre.
● Le conducteur et tous les passagers à bord du véhicule doivent porter leur
ceinture de sécurité correctement.
Les coussins gonflables SRS sont des dispositifs de protection
complémentaires aux ceintures de sécurité.
● Le coussin gonflable SRS conducteur se déploie avec une puissan ce
considérable et peut occasionner des blessures graves, voire mo rtelles,
notamment lorsque le conducteur se trouve très près du coussin
gonflable. L’autorité fédérale chargée de la sécurité routière aux États-
Unis, la NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) conseille:
Sachant que la zone de danger pour le coussin gonflable conduct eur se
trouve dans les premiers 2 à 3 in. (50 à 75 mm) du déploiement, placez-
vous à 10 in. (250 mm) du coussin gonflable conducteur pour gara ntir
une marge de sécurité suffisante. Cette distance est à mesurer entre le
moyeu du volant de direction et le sternum. Si vous êtes assis à moins de
10 in. (250 mm), vous pouvez changer votre position de conduite de
plusieurs façons:
• Reculez votre siège le plus possible, tout en continuant à pou voir
atteindre confortablement les pédales.
• Inclinez légèrement le dossier du siège. Bien que les véhicules soient différents les uns des autres, la plupart
des conducteurs peuvent s’asseoir à une distance de 10 in. (250 mm),
même avec le siège conducteur complètement avancé, simplement e n
inclinant un peu le dossier de siège. Si vous avez des difficultés à voir
la route après avoir incliné votre siège, utilisez un coussin f erme et
antidérapant pour vous rehausser ou, si votre véhicule est équi pé du
réglage en hauteur du siège, remontez-le.
• Si votre volant de direction est réglable, inclinez-le vers le bas. Cela
vous permet d’orienter le coussin gonflable vers votre buste plutôt que
vers la tête et le cou.
Le siège doit être réglé selon les recommandations de la NHTSA ci-
dessus, tout en conservant le contrôle des pédales et du volant, et la vue
des commandes au tableau de bord.
