pressure in the seat side cushions and in
the backrest side bolsters is increased.
R if the vehicle skids ,the fron tside windows
and, on the Coupé, the panorama sliding
sunroof, are closed so that only asmall gap
remains.
If th ehazardous situation passe swithout
resulting in an accident ,PRE-SAFE ®
