Front Airbag System
The front airbag system consists of
one airbag in the steering wheel and
one in the instrument panel on the
front passenger side. These can be
identified by the word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system is triggered
in the event of a front-end 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 upper body and head of
the front seat occupants
considerably.
{Warning
Optimum protection is only
provided when the seat is
in the proper position
0Seat Position 033.
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions. (Continued)

Fit the seat belt correctly and
engage securely. Only then the
airbag is able to protect.
Side Airbag System
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 is triggered
in the event of a side 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 upper body and pelvis
in the event of a side-on collision
considerably.
{Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Note
Only use protective seat covers that
have been approved for the vehicle.
Be careful not to cover the airbags.
Curtain Airbag System
The curtain airbag system consists
of an airbag in the roof frame on
each side. This can be identified by
the word AIRBAG on the roof pillars.
The curtain airbag system is
triggered in 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.

Maxi-Cosi Cabriofix with ISOFIX
base, for children up to 13 kg.
. Group I
Duo Plus with ISOFIX and Top
tether, in this group.
. Group II, Group III
Kidfix with or without ISOFIX for
children from 15kg up to 36kg.
When a child restraint system is
being used, pay attention to the
following usage and installation
instructions and also those supplied
with the child restraint system. Always comply with local or national
regulations. In some countries, the
use of child restraint systems is
forbidden on certain seats.
{Danger

Selecting the right system
The rear seats are the most
convenient location to fasten a child
restraint system.
Children should travel facing
rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This ensures that the
child's backbone, which is still very
weak, is under less strain in the
event of an accident.
Suitable are restraint systems that
comply with valid UN ECE
regulations. Check local laws and
regulations for mandatory use of
child restraint systems.Ensure that the child restraint
system to be installed is compatible
with the vehicle type.
Ensure that the mounting location of
the child restraint system within the
vehicle is correct, see following
tables.
Allow children to enter and exit the
vehicle only on the side facing away
from the traffic.
When the child restraint system is
not in use, secure the seat with a
seat belt or remove it from the
vehicle.
Note
Do not affix anything on the child
restraint systems and do not cover
them with any other materials.
A child restraint system which has
been subjected to stress in an
accident must be replaced.
