Airbag system

Brief introduction

Why is it so important to wear a

seat belt and to sit correctly?

For the inflating airbags to achieve the best

protection, the seat belt must always be worn

properly and the correct sitting position must

be assumed.

The airbag system is not a substitute for seat

belts, but it is an integral part of the vehicle's

overall passive safety system. Please bear in

mind that the airbag system can only work

effectively when the vehicle occupants are

wearing their seat belts correctly and have

adjusted the headrests properly. Therefore, it

is most important to properly wear the seat

belts at all times, not only because this is re-

quired by law in most countries, but also for

your safety ››› page 15, The whys and

wherefores of seat belts.

The airbag inflates in a matter of seconds, so

if you are not properly seated when the air-

bag is triggered, you may sustain fatal inju-

ries. Therefore, it is essential that all vehicle

occupants assume a correct sitting position

while travelling.

Sharp braking before an accident may cause

a passenger not wearing a seat belt to be

thrown forward into the area of the deploying

airbag. In this case, the inflating airbag may

inflict critical or fatal injuries on the occupant.

This also applies to children.

Always maintain the greatest possible dis-

tance between yourself and the front airbag.

This way, the front airbags can completely

deploy when triggered, providing their maxi-

mum protection.

The most important factors for triggering the

airbag are the type of accident, the angle of

impact and the vehicle speed.

Whether or not the airbags are triggered de-

pends primarily on the vehicle deceleration

rate resulting from the collision and detected

by the control unit. If the vehicle deceleration

occurring during the collision and measured

by the control unit remains below the speci-

fied reference values, the front, side and/or

head-protection airbags will not be triggered.

Take into account that the visible damage in

a vehicle involved in an accident, no matter

how serious, is not a determining factor for

the airbags to have been triggered.

WARNING

●Wearing the seat belt incorrectly or as-

suming an incorrect sitting position can

lead to critical or fatal injuries.

●All vehicle occupants, including children,

who are not properly belted can sustain

critical or fatal injuries if the airbag is trig-

gered. Children up to 12 years old should

always travel on the rear seat. Never trans-

port children in the vehicle if they are not

restrained or the restraint system is not ap-

propriate for their age, size or weight.

●To reduce the risk of injury from an inflat-

ing airbag, always wear the seat belt prop-

erly ››› page 15.
