Principle
The active pedestrian protection system raises
the bonnet if the vehicle's front end collides with
a pedestrian. Sensors underneath the bumper
are used for detection.

the bonnet for the subsequent head impact.
Safety notes

is made with individual components of the
hinges and bonnet locks. There is a danger of
injury or damage to property. Do not touch indi‐
