Airbag system 177

Using the system Safety Driving Tips General Maintenance Breakdown assistance Technical Data

In certain accident situations, the front, side and head airbag are deployed

together.

If the airbags are deployed, the airbags are filled with a propellant gas and inflated

in front of the driver and front passenger ⇒ fig. 171. The airbags inflate in fractions

of a second and at a high speed in order to be able to offer that additional protec-

tion in the event of an accident. The forward movement of the driver and of the

front passenger is cushioned when they make contact with the fully inflated airbag

and the risk of injury to head and chest is thus reduced.

The specially developed airbag allows the gas to flow out of the inflated airbag in a

controlled manner (depending on the load of the particular car occupant) in order

to cushion head and chest areas. The airbag then deflates subsequently to such an

extent, after an accident, to again provide a clear view forward.

A grey white, non harmful gas is released when airbag is inflated. This is perfectly

normal and is not an indication of a fire in the vehicle.

The airbag develops enormous forces when triggered, which can lead to injuries if

the sitting position or seated position is not correct ⇒ in “Important safety

information regarding the front airbag system” on page 177.

Important safety information regarding the front airbag system

Correct use of the airbag system considerably reduces the risk of

injury!

WARNING

• Never transport children on the front seat of a vehicle without using a

proper restraint system. If airbags are deployed in the event of an accident,

the child might suffer severe or even fatal injuries!

• For the driver and front passenger it is important to maintain a distance

of at least 25 cm from the steering wheel or dash panel ⇒ fig. 172. Not main-

taining this minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be

able to properly protect you - hazard! The front seats and the head restraints

must always also be correctly adjusted to match the body size of the occu-

pant.

• It is essential to always switch off ⇒ page 182, “Deactivating an airbag”

the front passenger airbag when attaching a child safety seat on the front

passenger seat where the child is seated with its back facing in direction of

travel (in some countries also when the child is facing the direction of travel).

If this is not done, there is a risk of the child suffering severe or even fatal

injuries if the front passenger airbag is deployed. In certain countries

national legal provisions also require that the side or head passenger

airbags be deactivated. When transporting a child on the front passenger

seat, please comply with the appropriate national regulations regarding the

use of child safety seats.

• There must not by any further persons, animals or objects positioned

between the front seated occupants and the deployment area of the airbag.

• The steering wheel and the surface of the airbag module in the dash

panel on the passenger side must not be stuck onto, covered or modified in

any other way. These parts should only be cleaned with a dry cloth or a cloth

moistened with water. No objects such as cup holders, mobile phone

mounts, etc. may be attached to the covers of the airbag modules or be

located within the immediate area.

• No modifications of any kind may be made to parts of the airbag system.

Any work on the airbag system including installing and removing system

components because of other repair work (e.g. removing the steering

wheel) must only be carried out by a specialist garage.

• Never carry out changes on the front bumper or on the body.
