Ultrasonic parking sensors
3
When reverse gear is selected, the park
pilot switches itself on automatically.
Manual activation is possible at speed
below 25 km/h by using the r button in
the instrument panel.
An acoustic warning sounds when the
vehicle approaches an obstacle behind.

Tyre pressure loss monitoring
system (DDS = Deflation Detection
System)
3
If a tyre loses pressure, it grows smaller. It
then rotates at a different speed than the
other tyres. If the system detects a
difference in speed, control indicator w
illuminates red.
Picture no: 18245s.tif
After tyre pressure is corrected or a tyre or
wheel is changed, the system must be
initialised by pressing the DDS button.

Airbag system Front airbag 3
The front airbag system consists of one
airbag in the steering wheel and one in the
instrument panel. These can be identified
by the word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system comprises:
z an airbag with inflator in the steering
wheel and a second one in the
instrument panel,
z control electronics with impact sensors,
z the control indicator for airbag
systems v in the instrument,
Picture no: 17112t.tif
z the system for deactivating the front and
side airbags for the front passenger 3,
z the control indicator * for deactivated
front passenger airbag systems and the
LEDs in the button * 3.
The front airbag system will be triggered:
z depending on the severity of the
accident,
z depending on the type of impact,
z within the range show n in the illustration,
z independent of the side airbag 3 and
curtain airbag system 3.
The ignition must be switched on. Exception:
The front and side airbags for the front
passenger have been deactivated
3
because a child restraint system is
mounted on the front passenger seat.
Deactivation of airbag systems for front
passenger 3, see page 375.
Mounting of Opel child restraint systems –
see pages 363, 368.
Examples of events causing the front
airbag system to deploy:
z Impact against a non-yielding obstacle:
the front airbags are triggered at low
vehicle speed.
z Impact against a yielding obstacle (such
as another vehicle): the front airbags are
only triggered at a higher vehicle speed.

Also, the front airbag system is not
deployed for the front passenger when the
airbag systems for the front passenger are
deactivated 3.
Deactivated airbag systems for the front
passenger 3 are indicated by constant
illumination of the LEDs in the button *
and the control indicator *.

systems 3 375.

systems 3363, 368.
Picture no: 18320s.tif
Side airbag 3
The side airbag system consists of an
airbag in each front seat backrest. This can
be identified by the word AIRBAG.
The side airbag system comprises:
z an airbag with inflator in the back of the
driver’s and front passenger seat
respectively,
z the control electronics,
z the side impact sensors,
z the control indicator for airbag
systems v in the instrument,
z the system for deactivating the front and
side airbags for the front passenger,
z the control indicator * for deactivated
front passenger airbag systems.
Picture no: 17114t.tif
The side airbag system will be triggered:
z depending on the severity of the
accident,
z depending on the type of impact,
z within the range shown in the illustration
on the centre door pillar of the driver’s or
front passenger side,
z independently of the front airbag
system.
The ignition must be switched on.
Exception:
The front and side airbags for the front
passenger were deactivated because a
child restraint system is mounted on the
front passenger seat.

Curtain airbag 3
The curtain airbag system consists of an
airbag in the roof fram e on each side. This
can be identified by the word AIRBAG on
the roof pillar.
The curtain airbag system comprises:
z an airbag with inflator in the roof frame
on the driver’s and front passenger side
respectively,
z the control electronics,
z the side impact sensors,
z the control indicator for airbag
systems v in the instrument.
Picture no: 17114t.tif
The curtain airbag system will be triggered:
z depending on the severity of the
accident,
z depending on the type of impact,
z within the range shown in the illustration
on the centre door pillar of the driver’s or
front passenger side,
z together with the side airbag system,
z independent of the deactivated front
passenger airbag systems,
z independently of the front airbag
system.
The ignition must be switched on.
Picture no: 18185s.tif
When the curtain airb ag is triggered it
inflates within milliseconds and provides a
safety barrier in the head area on the
respective side of the vehicle. This reduces
the risk of injury to th e head considerably in
case of a side impact.
