Seats, interior43
zThe airbag system is additionally
triggered in the event of a serious
accident involving a frontal impact, and
forms a safety cushion for the driver and
front passenger. In the event of a side
impact, the side airbag system 3
protects the occupants in the front of the
vehicle, and the curtain airbag system
protects both front and rear outboard
seat occupants. Three-point seat belts
The front and rear seats are equipped with
three-point seat belts with automatic
retractors and locking devices, allowing
freedom of body movement when the
vehicle moves at a constant speed,
although the spring-tensioned belts are
always a snug fit.
The belt has a “vehicle sensitive retractor”
which is designed to lock during heavy
acceleration or deceleration in any
direction. In the event of an accident, persons not
wearing seat belts endanger their fellow
occupants and themselves.
Control indicator
X for driver’s seat belt
reminder - see page 72.
Control indicator k for front passenger’s
seat belt reminder 3 - see page 46.
Seat belts are designed to be used by only
one person at a time. They are only
suitable for children aged up to 12 or
smaller than 150 cm if used in conjunction
with a child restraint 3 .
For children up to 12 years of age, we
recommend the Opel child restraint
system 3 - see page 47.
9 Warning
The airbag system se rves to supplement
the three-point seat belts and belt
tensioners. The seat belts must therefore
always be worn.
Disregard of these notes can lead to
injuries which may be fatal. Vehicle
passengers must be informed
accordingly.
Be sure to read the descriptions of all the
restraint systems on the following pages. 9 Warning
Always wear your seat belt, and that
means also in urban traffic and when you
are a rear seat passenger. It can save
your life!
Pregnant women too must always wear a
seat belt, keeping the lap belt low and
snug on the hips and pelvis (not the waist
or abdomen, where actuating belt
tensioners could cause serious injury in
the event of a collision).

Seats, interior58
zAfter airbags deflate, you may notice a
burning smell, smoke and white powder
in the interior, which is normal. Although
they may cause skin or eye irritation,
these substances are non-toxic.
z Hazard warning lamps may flash and
locked doors may be unlocked
automatically when airbags deploy 3.
z The speeds, directions of movement and
deformation properties of the vehicles,
and the properties of the obstacle
concerned, determine the severity of the
accident and triggering of the airbags.
z The degree of damage to your vehicle
and the resulting repair costs alone are
not indicative that the criteria for
triggering of the airbags were met.
z Do not perform any modifications to the
components of the airbag systems, as
this will render the vehicle unroadworthy. z
We recommend having the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, all panelling
parts, the door seals, handles and the
front seats removed by a workshop.
z When disposing of the vehicle, please
observe the applicable safety
regulations. Take the vehicle to a
recycling company for disposal.
Use of child restraint systems 3 on front
passenger’s seat
9 Warning
The systems can be triggered abruptly
and cause injury if they are handled
improperly.
9 Warning
Child restraint systems as well as other
heavy objects must never be carried on
the lap of passengers; risk of fatal injury.
9 Warning
No child restraint system may be
installed to the front passenger’s seat.
