Front airbags and knees
airbags
For these airbags to deploy, it re-
quires a violent frontal impact ap-
plied on all or part of the frontal
impact zone (see illustration) from
forward of the vehicle in a horizon-
tal plane.
The airbag interposes itself be-
tween the vehicle's front occupant
and the dashboard to cushion the
person from being thrown forward.
The airbag thus limits the risk of
trauma to the head and chest. For
the driver, the knees airbag pro-
tects the knees.
The front passenger’s airbag can
be deactivated. See “Passenger's
airbag deactivation”.
Side airbags and curtain
airbags
Deployment of these airbags re-
quires a violent lateral impact ap-
plied on all or part of one of the
lateral collision zones, coming in a
horizontal plane from the side.
The role of the side airbag is to
place itself between the occupant
(driver or front passenger) and the
door panel, thus limiting the risk of
injuries to the chest.
The rear side airbags give the rear
passengers (except the central
passenger) the same protection
as that given by the front side air-
bags to the front occupants.
The role of the curtain airbag is to
place itself between the front or
rear occupant and the windows,
thus limiting the risk of injuries to
the head.
