Dispositifs complémentaires à la ceinture avant (X82 PH2 - Renault)
Load limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this
mechanism is used to limit the force of
the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.
Airbags driver and passenger
front
Fitted to the driver and passenger
sides.
An airbag marking on the steering
wheel and the dashboard (airbag A
area) indicates that this device is fitted.
Each airbag system consists of:
– an airbag and gas generator fitted on
the steering wheel for the driver and
in the dashboard for the passenger;
– an electronic unit for system monitor-
ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
– a single
å
warning light on the
instrument panel.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS
(2/6)
The airbag system uses py-
rotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the
airbag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a banging noise. In a situ-
ation where an airbag is required, it
will inflate immediately and this may
cause some minor, superficial graz-
ing to the skin or other problems.
A
The passenger airbag
airbag only protects the
front side passenger; the
front centre passenger is
only protected by the seat belt.
Please follow the usual safety in-
structions (wearing the seat belt).
Risk of injury in the event of an
accident.
