than 12°C (with a tolerance of plus
or minus 4°C).

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELT(continued)
Force limiter
Above a certain severity of impact,
this mechanism is used to limit the
force of the belt against the body so
that it is at an acceptable level.
Warning relating to the
service life of airbags
and pretensioners
Pyrotechnic systems for
airbags and pretensioners have a
limited service life: refer to the
servicing booklet for your
vehicle for the replacement
frequency.
Driver and passenger airbags
These are fitted to both the driver
and the front passenger seats.
An “Airbag” marking on the
steering wheel and dashboard and a
label in the lower section of the
windscreen inform you of the
presence of additional means of
restraint (airbags, pretensioners,
etc.) in the passenger compartment.
Each airbag system consists of:
- an airbag and its two gas
generators (for the small or
large-volume bag depending on
the severity of the frontal impact)
mounted on the steering wheel for
the driver and in the dashboard for
the passenger;
- a computer for both systems,
which includes the impact
detector and the monitor
controlling the electrical trigger
system for each of the gas
generators;
- A single warning light on
the instrument panel.The air bag system uses the
principles of pyrotechnics. This
explains why, when the air bag
inflates, it will generate heat,
produce smoke (this does not mean
that a fire is about to start) and
make a noise upon detonation. In a
situation where an air bag is
required, it must inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor,
superficial grazing to the skin.
