Adaptive Forward
Lighting (AFL).
New
Meriva can be specified
with an optional halogen
lighting system, featuring
dynamic curve light and static cornering
light. The result? Better visibility and
enhanced safety too. For more technical
information please turn to page 57.
Integrated safety systems.
New Meriva has a rigid central safety
cell, designed for maximum protection,
plus availability of the latest passenger
restraint technology – airbags, seatbelt
systems and active-safety front seat
head restraints. The chassis is also
packed with active-safety features,
specially enhanced to help you keep
control in all driving situations.
Active-safety front seat head
restraints.
New Meriva’s active front
seat head restraints move up and forward
under a rear impact to minimise the risk
of whiplash injury and guard against
other head and upper body injuries.
Standard on Exclusiv and SE models,
optional as part of the Protection Pack
on Expression and S.
Child safety.
All New Meriva models
feature pre-fitted ISOFIX mountings
on the outer rear seats. When used
in conjunction with the accessory
Vauxhall Duo ISOFIX child seat, the
system ensures a fixed anchorage for
the child seat. The ISOFIX attachment
also features Vauxhall’s Top Tether
restraining strap system for greater
security under extreme braking.
Vauxhall’s two other child seats – the
rear-facing Baby Safe and the KID –
cater from birth to 12 years. All Vauxhall
child seats (including the Duo ISOFIX
illustrated right) can be fixed using the
standard lap and diagonal seatbelts.
New Meriva’s wide-opening FlexDoors
®
offer easier access to the rear seat, so
it’s even simpler to secure a child safely
into a child seat. With front and rear
doors open, New Meriva also creates
a partially enclosed area at the side of
the car. Effectively a parent- and child-
friendly zone that makes it easier to
control children as they step in or out
of the car.
Airbags.
New Meriva is equipped with
front and side-impact airbags for driver
and front passenger (front only on
Expression models). The front passenger
airbag can be deactivated for child seat
use. Curtain airbags are also standard
on Exclusiv and SE models.
Vehicle illustrated features accessory Vauxhall
Duo ISOFIX child seat, available at extra cost.
