44 Seats, restraints
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and pelvis in
the event of a side-on collision
considerably.
9 Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Note
Only use protective seat covers that
have been approved for the vehicle.
Be careful not to cover the airbags.
Curtain airbag system
The curtain airbag system consists of
an airbag in the roof frame on each
side. This can be identified by the
word AIRBAG on the headlining trim.
The curtain airbag system is triggered
in the event of an accident of a certain
severity. The ignition needs to be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the head in the event of a
side-on impact considerably.
9 Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Airbag deactivation
Front airbag and side airbag systems
for the front passenger seat have to
be deactivated if a child restraint
system is to be fitted on this seat. The
curtain airbag system, the belt
tensioners and all driver airbag
systems will remain active.
