Occupant Protection
The extensive measures taken on the body to improve
the passive safety are supplemented by the
components for active safety. Due to the special
requirements for cabriolets, there is also an active
rollover protection system for when the roof is open in
addition to the airbag and restraint system.
The Eos has single-stage airbags for the driver and
front passenger as well as side and head airbags in
the seat backrests. Each door has a pressure sensor to
detect side collisions. The front passenger airbag can
be deactivated with a key switch in the glove
compartment.
The front seats have 3-point seat belts with belt force
limiters and pyrotechnic belt tensioners. The two rear
seats have 3-point belts with belt force limiters, but
without belt tensioners.
The airbags and belt tensioners can only be activated
for 150 ms after the power supply fails.
In accidents, in addition to the airbag and belt
tensioner functions, the fuel pump is switched off in all
engine versions above a threshold value defined in
the airbag control unit. When equipped with the
3.6l engine, the system also automatically disconnects
the two 6-volt batteries.
