Airbag system36

If the front airbag deploys, the knee airbag also deploys in severe frontal colli-

sions.

When the system is deployed, the airbag starts to fill with a propellant gas,

and inflates between the lower part of the instrument panel and the driver

⇒page 35, fig. 22.

Although they are not a soft pillow, they can “cushion” the impact and in this

way they can help to reduce the risk of injury to the lower extremities.

All this takes place instantaneously, so fast that many people do not even

realize that the airbags have deployed. The airbags also inflate with a great

deal of force and it is important for occupant safety that nothing should be in

their way when they deploy.

Fully inflated airbags in combination with properly worn safety belts slow

down and limit the occupant's forward movement and help to reduce risk.

Important safety notes on the knee airbag system

Airbags are only supplemental restraints.

Always wear safety belts correctly and drive in a proper seated position. There

is a lot that you and your passengers must know and do to help the safety

belts and airbags to provide supplementary protection.

WARNING

An inflating knee airbag can cause serious injury. Wearing safety belts

incorrectly and improper seating positions increase the risk of serious

personal injury and death whenever a vehicle is being used.

•The airbag system cannot protect you properly if you are seated too

close to any of the airbag locations. When adjusting their seating posi-

tions, it is important for drivers to keep their upper bodies and knees to the

following minimum safe distances:

−25 cm between the chest and the steering wheel/instrument panel.

−10 cm between the knees and the lower part of the instrument panel.

•The risk of personal injury increases if you lean forward or to the side,

or if the seat is improperly positioned and you are not wearing your safety

belt. The risk increases even more should the airbag deploy.

•Always make sure that the knee airbag can inflate without interference.

Objects between yourself and the airbag can increase the risk of injury in

an accident by interfering with the way the airbag deploys or by being

thrust into you as the airbag deploys.

−No objects of any kind should be carried in the footwell area in front

of the driver's seat. Bulky objects (shopping bags, for example) can

hinder or prevent proper deployment of the airbag. Small objects can

be thrown through the vehicle if the airbag deploys and injure you or

your passengers.

•Make sure there are no cracks, deep scratches or other damage in the

area of the instrument panel where the knee airbag is located.

•If children are incorrectly seated, their risk of injury increases in the

case of an accident ⇒page 46.
