Airbag system

WARNING

●

If you do not wear a seat belt, if you lean

forward, or are not seated correctly while the
vehicle is in motion, you are at a greater risk
of injury if the side airbag system is triggered
in an accident.

●

In order for the side airbags to provide their

maximum protection, the prescribed sitting
position must always be maintained with
seat belts fastened while travelling.

●

In a side-on collision the side airbags will

not work if the sensors do not correctly meas-
ure the pressure increase on the interior of
the doors, due to air escaping through the
areas with holes or openings in the door pan-
el.

●

Never drive if the interior door panels have

been removed or if the panels have not been
correctly fitted.

●

Never drive the vehicle if the loudspeakers

in the door panels have been removed, un-
less the holes left by the loudspeakers have
been closed properly.

●

Always check that the openings are closed

or covered if loudspeakers or other equip-
ment are fitted inside the door panels.

●

Occupants of the outer seats must never

carry any objects or pets in the deployment
space between them and the airbags, or al-
low children or other passengers to travel in
this position. It is also important not to at-
tach any accessories (such as cup holders) to

the doors. This would impair the protection
offered by the side airbags.

●

The built-in coat hooks should be used only

for lightweight clothing. Do not leave any
heavy or sharp-edged objects in the pockets.

●

Great forces, such as hard blows or kicks,

must not be exerted upon the backrest bol-
ster because the system may be damaged. In
this case, the side airbags would not be trig-
gered.

●

Under no circumstances should protective

covers be fitted over seats with side airbags
unless the covers have been approved for use
in your vehicle. Because the airbag deploys
from the side of the backrest, the use of con-
ventional seat covers would obstruct the side
airbag, seriously reducing the airbag's effec-
tiveness.

●

Any damage to the original seat upholstery

or around the seams of the side airbag units
must be repaired immediately by a special-
ised workshop.

●

The airbags provide protection for just one

accident; replace them once they have de-
ployed.

●

Any work on the side airbag system or re-

moval and installation of the airbag compo-
nents for other repairs (such as removal of
the front seat) should only be performed by a
specialised workshop. Otherwise, faults may
occur during the airbag system operation.

●

Do not attempt to modify components of

the airbag system in any way.

Head-protection airbags*

Location of head-protection airbags.

The head-protection airbags are located on
both sides in the interior above the doors

and are identified with the text

“AIRBAG”.

In conjunction with the seat belts, the head-
protection airbag system gives the vehicle
occupants additional protection for the head
and upper body in the event of a severe side
collision

WARNING

●

In order for the head-protection airbags to

provide their maximum protection, the pre-
scribed sitting position must always be main-
tained with seat belts fastened while travel-
ling.

●

For safety reasons, the curtain airbag must

be disabled in those vehicles fitted with a
screen dividing the interior of the vehicle.
