SIDE AIR BAGS
The car is fitted with front side bags for
driver and passenger (for versions/ mar-
kets, where provided) for protecting the
chest and window bags (for versions/ mar-
kets, where provided) for protecting front
and rear passengers’ head.
Side bags (for versions/markets, where
provided) protect car occupants from side
crashes of medium-high severity, by plac-
ing the cushion between the occupant and
the internal parts of the side structure of
the car.
Non-activation of side bags in other types
of collisions (front collisions, rear shunts,
roll-overs, etc...) is not a system malfunc-
tion.
In case of side crash, an electronic control
unit, when required triggers the inflation
of the cushion. The cushion immediately
inflates, placing itself as a protection, be-
tween the occupant’s body and the struc-
ture that could cause injuries. Immediate-
ly after, the cushion deflates.
Side bags (for versions/markets, where
provided) are not a replacement of but
complementary to the belts, which you
are recommended to always wear, as
specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
FRONT SIDE BAGS - CHEST
AND PELVIS ZONE
PROTECTION fig. 16
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
Front side bags are housed in the seat back
rests, they consist of an instant inflation
cushion designed to increase protection
of the occupants’ chest and pelvis zone in
the event of a side crash of medium-high
severity.
SIDE WINDOW BAGS - HEAD
PROTECTION fig. 17
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
They consist of two “curtain” cushions,
one on the right and the other on the left
side of the car, located behind the side
coverings of the roof and covered by
proper finishing.
Window bags have been designed for pro-
tecting the head of front and rear occu-
pants in the event of side crash, thanks to
the wide cushion inflation surface.
IMPORTANT In the event of side crash,
you can obtain the best protection by the
system keeping a correct position on the
seat, allowing thus a correct window bag
unfolding.
