During a side collision, the combined curtain and side airbags will be deployed on the vehicle's side of impact, reducing the risk of injury to the
areas of the vehicle occupants' bodies facing the impact.
Curtain airbags
Fig. 65 On the left­hand side of the vehicle: location and deployment zone of the curtain airbag
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings →Introduction 
In the interior, a curtain airbag is fitted above the doors on both the driver and front passenger sides  → Fig. 65 . The airbag location is identified
by the text AIRBAG.
Once triggered, the airbag inflates at high speed.
Always keep the deployment zones of the combined curtain and side airbags clear.
No other people, animals or objects may be carried between the occupants of the front seats and the airbag deployment zone. Make sure
that children and passengers also keep to this rule.
The built-in coat hooks should only be used for lightweight clothing. Do not leave any heavy or sharp objects in the pockets.
Do not fit any accessories to the doors.
Do not fit seat covers or protective covers over the seats unless they have been expressly approved for use in the vehicle. Otherwise the
combined combined curtain and side airbags may not be able to deploy if it has been triggered.
WARNING
Incorrect use of the driver and front passenger seat could hinder the proper function of the combined curtain and side airbags and cause
serious injury.
Never remove the front seats from the vehicle or alter any components of these seats.
If too much pressure is applied to the backrest side bolster, the combined curtain and side airbags may not be triggered correctly, may not
trigger at all or may trigger unexpectedly.
Any damage to the original seat upholstery or around the seams of the combined curtain and side airbag units must be repaired immediately
by a qualified workshop.
