Safety
Operation
The front airbags are controlled by an ECU which activates them
when there is a sufficiently severe head-on collision (direction of
impact between 11 and 1 o'clock p.m.).
In the event of a collision with an impact force that causes
deceleration that exceeds the value set for the internal sensor, the
ECU will transmit a signal to deploy the airbags. The airbags will
begin to inflate, breaking the cover along the breakage line and will
deploy completely in a few tenths of milliseconds. Once deployed,
they will serve as protection between the driver and/or passenger
and structures that could cause injury.
The airbags deflate immediately afterwards.
Warning
The driver and passenger should not carry objects (drink cans
or bottles, pipes, etc.) that may cause injury if the airbags are
activated.
Persons, animals or items must not be placed between the
airbags and the occupant.
Environment
When the system is activated, gases are released in the form
of fumes, together with the gas used for inflating the airbags.
These gases are not harmful.
The driver's airbag
has been designed to be deployed according
to the following strategy:
• For low severity crashes, the airbag control unit will not deploy
the airbag.
• For crashes of higher severity, the control unit will deploy the
driver airbag in low energy mode.
• For crashes of even higher severity, the control unit will deploy
the driver airbag in high energy mode.
The passenger airbag
has been designed to be deployed
according to the following strategy:
• For low severity crashes, the airbag control unit will not deploy
the airbag.
• For crashes of higher severity, the control unit will deploy the
passenger airbag in low energy mode.
• For crashes of even higher severity, the control unit will deploy
the passenger airbag in high energy mode.
Warning
The driver and passenger must always fasten their seat belts
and sit in an upright position, as far as possible away from
the airbag, in order to have optimal protection in all types of
collision.
Warning
Always keep the backrest of your seat in the upright position
and sit with your back properly resting against it.
Important note
Do not modify the system components or wiring, under any
circumstances.
