The curtain airbag system is triggeredin the event of a side-on impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the head in the event of a
side-on impact considerably.9 Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.

The front passenger airbag system
must be deactivated if a child restraint is to be fitted on the front passenger
seat in accordance with the
