Airbag Safety System
In conjunction with wearing seat belts,
the airbag system gives the vehicle
occupants additional protection in the
event of a severe collision.
Airbags are designed to work with the
seat belt system. If a seatbelt is not
used or is used incorrectly, this may
diminish the protection provided by the
airbag in the event of a collision.
WARNING:
Vehicle occupants can
be killed or seriously injured in
a crash if they are not wearing a
seat belt - even with airbags fitted.
The main components of an airbag sys-
tem are:
– Electronic monitoring system (SRS
control module and sensors).
– Driver airbag.
– Passenger airbag.
– Driver and passenger side airbags.
– Driver and passenger inflatable
curtains.
– Pretensioning seat belts.
Airbag Warning Lamp
OFF
A fault has been detected in
the airbag safety system if
this warning lamp illuminates
whilst driving. This could mean
that one or more of the airbags
may not activate in the event
of a collision.
WARNING:
If the airbag warning
lamp does not illuminate as the
ignition is turned on, or remains
illuminated for more than a few
seconds, have the fault rectified
immediately by your approved
Lotus Retailer. Ignoring the lamp
could result in the airbags or belt
pretensioners not operating when
needed.
WARNING:
Do not use any
electrical test equipment or
modify the wiring for any
electrical accessories in the
vicinity of SRS components or
wiring harnesses. Doing so may
disable the airbag system or
cause its unintended deployment
and result in personal injury.
Seat Belt Pretensioners
A severe frontal impact sufficient to
trigger the airbag system activates
pretensioners within both front seat
belt retractors, tightening the belts to
increase occupant protection.
