Airbags
System designed to contribute towards improving   the   safety   of   the   occupants   (with  
t

he   exception   of   the   rear   centre   passenger)  
i

n   the   event   of   violent   collisions.   The   airbags  
s

upplement   the   action   of   the   force-limiting  
s

eat   belts   (with   the   exception   of   the   centre   rear  
p

assenger).
If
  a   collision   occurs,   the   electronic   detectors  
r

ecord   and   analyse   the   front   and   side   impacts  
s

ustained   in   the   impact   detection   zones:
-
 
i
n   the   case   of   a   serious   impact,   the   airbags  
a

re   deployed   instantly   and   contribute  
t

owards   better   protection   of   the   occupants  
o

f   the   vehicle   (with   the   exception   of   the  
r

ear   centre   passenger);   immediately   after  
t

he   impact,   the   airbags   deflate   rapidly   so  
t

hat   they   do   not   hinder   visibility   or   the   exit  
o

f the occupants,
-
 
i
n   the   case   of   a   minor   or   rear   impact   or   in  
c

ertain   roll-over   conditions,   the   airbags  
m

ay   not   be   deployed;   the   seat   belt  
a

lone   contributes   towards   ensuring   your  
p

rotection   in   these   situations. This
  equipment   will   only   deploy   once.  
I

f   a   second   impact   occurs   (during   the  
s

ame   or   a   subsequent   accident),   the  
a

irbag   will   not   be   deployed   again.
Impact detection zones
A. Front  impact   zone.
B. S ide   impact   zone.
Deployment
  of   one   or   more   of   the  
a

irbags   is   accompanied   by   a   slight  
e

mission   of   smoke   and   a   noise,   due  
t

o the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge
  incorporated   in   the   system.
This
  smoke   is   not   harmful,   but   sensitive  
i

ndividuals   may   experience   slight  
ir

ritation.
The
  noise   of   detonation   related   to   the  
d

eployment   of   one   or   more   airbags  
m

ay   result   in   a   slight   loss   of   hearing   for  
a

  short   time.
The airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off.

Aero-acoustic deflector Operating the roof when
driving
If a roof operation is started before the vehicle's speed is above about 70 mph (120 km/h), exceeding this speed limitation leads to the
following situations, depending on the type of roof operation in progress: - an operation in progress in zone A is stopped,
The roof opening and closing control operates up to about 70 mph (120 km/h). Above this speed, a message in the screen informs you that operation of the roof is not possible (speed too high).
An aero-acoustic deflector is available to improve the acoustic comfort of occupants of the vehicle in certain driving conditions (high speed), by reducing the turbulence in the passenger compartment resulting from the displacement of air. On opening the roof, the aero-acoustic deflector may be deployed if it is not secured. On closing the roof, the deflector folds away automatically.
 With the roof open, this deflector can be folded away manually and secured at its centre: press vertically down on the cross member near the paddle at the top of the deflector and clip this paddle in the cut-out.  To release and deploy the deflector manually, press vertically down on the cross member near the paddle to unclip it from the cut-out and pull it gently towards you.
