GENERAL
• The programmed restraint system (SRP) limits
the force of the belt on the body.
MAB11197S
All operations on the air bag and pretensioner
systems must be carried out by qualified and trai-
ned personnel.
These safety features are complementary.
In the event of a frontal impact of sufficient
force:
• the front seat belts retain the driver and pas-
senger.
• The pretensioners tighten the front seat belts
in such a way that they flatten them against the
body.
• The air bag cushions inflate :
- from the centre of the steering wheel to pro-
tect the driver’s head,
- from the dashboard to protect the front pas-
senger’s head (according to equipment).
