offers additional protection for the driver’s and passenger’s head
and chest in a serious frontal collision.
In serious lateral collisions the side Air Bags reduce the risk of
injury to the body parts exposed to the danger for the front seat
occupants.
The Air Bag system is not a replacement for the seat belt but a
complementary element of the passive safety concept of the
vehicle. Please note that the best possible protection to be offered
by the Air Bag system can only be effective when the seat belts are
fastened.

. In these cases,
the vehicles occupants are protected in the conventional way by
the seat belts.
It is not possible to define globally when exactly the Air Bag system
will be triggered given that the circumstances of each impact may
vary enormously.
During inflation, the Air Bag emits a fine dust. This is quite normal
and there is no fire risk.
K
Description of front airbags1)
When the system is triggered, the bags are inflated by gas opening
in front of the driver and passenger.
The Air Bag inflation is considerably rapid and takes fractions of a
second, to offer the best protection in the case of an accident.

It is extremely important to observe all safety regulations when the vehicle
or any components of the Air Bag system are scrapped. Technical Service
Centres are familiar with these regulations and can provide the necessary
details.
K
Function of side airbags1)
When the system is triggered, the bags inflate using gas.
The Air Bag inflates in a split second to be able to offer additional
protection during an accident.

21 Air Bag system
Safety FirstControls and equipment Tips and Maintenance Technical Data
Function of head airbags*
When the system is triggered, the bags inflate using gas.
In this way, the entire window area is protected as well as the door
frame areas (up to mid-door range), thus protecting passengers in
the front and rear seats.
The inflated Air Bag will lose pressure relatively slowly through its
tissue due to the pressure caused by the lateral movement of the
occupant. In this way the risk of damage to the upper body due to
a crash is greatly reduced.
When the lateral Air Bag is deployed*, the head Air Bag is
automatically deployed on the side of the impact.
