FRONT AIR BAGS
The car is provided with front air bags for the driver and
the passenger, driver’s knee air bag (for versions/markets
where provided) and front side bags (side bags – window
bags).
The front air bags (driver, passenger driver’s knee bag)
protect the occupants of the front seats in the event of
moderate to serious front impacts by positioning the bag
between the occupant and the steering wheel or the dash-
board.
Therefore non-activation in other types of collisions (side
collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is not a system
malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make the bag inflate in the
event of a frontal impact.
The bag will inflate instantaneously placing itself be-
tween the front occupants body and the structures which
could cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
The front airbags (driver’s, passenger’s, driver’s knee air
bags) do not replace but rather complement the seat
belts, which you are always recommended to wear, as
specified by law in Europe and most non-European coun-
tries.
In the event of an impact, someone not wearing a seat belt
could move forward and come into contact with a bag
which is still in the opening phase. The protection offered
by the bag is reduced in such a case.The front air bags may not be activated in the following
situations:
❍front collisions against highly deformable objects not
affecting the front surface of the car (e.g. bumper col-
lision against guard rail, etc.);
❍car wedging under other vehicles or protective barri-
ers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection compared
with seat belts, so their activation would be inappropri-
ate. Therefore, failure to come into action in the above
circumstances does not mean that the system is not work-
ing properly.
Do not apply stickers or other objects on the
steering wheel, on the dashboard in the pas-
senger side airbag area, on side upholstery
on roof and on the seats. Never put objects (e.g. mo-
bile phones) on the passenger’s side dashboard since
they could interfere with proper air bag inflation
and also cause serious injury to the passengers.
