2015 VAUXHALL ZAFIRA TOURER seats

Seats, restraints53Airbag system
The airbag system consists of a
number of individual systems
depending on the scope of
equipment.
When triggered the airbags inflate
within milliseconds. They also deflate
so quickly that it is often unnoticeable during the collision.9 Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an
explosive manner.
Notice
The airbag systems and belt
pretensioner control electronics are
located in the centre console area.
Do not put any magnetic objects in
this area.
Do not stick anything on the airbag
covers and do not cover them with
other materials.
Each airbag is triggered only once.
Have deployed airbags replaced by
a workshop. Furthermore, it might be necessary to have the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, parts of
the panelling, the door seals,
handles and the seats replaced.
Do not make any modifications to
the airbag system as this will
invalidate the vehicle type approval.
When the airbags inflate escaping hot gases may cause burns.
Control indicator v for airbag systems
3 108.
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.
Additionally there is a warning label
on the side of the instrument panel,
visible when the front passenger door is open, or on the front passenger sun
visor.
The front airbag system is triggered in
the event of a front-end impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.

54Seats, restraints
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and head of
the front seat occupants
considerably.
9 Warning
Optimum protection is only
provided when the seat is in the
proper position.
Seat position 3 37.
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Fit the seat belt correctly and
engage securely. Only then is the
airbag 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.
9 Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Notice
Only use protective seat covers that
have been approved for the vehicle.Be careful not to cover the airbags.

Seats, restraints55Curtain 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.
The curtain airbag system does not
protect passengers on the third seat
row.9 Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
The hooks on the handles in the
roof frame are only suitable for
hanging up light articles of
clothing, without coat hangers. Do
not keep any items in these
clothes.
Airbag deactivation
The front passenger airbag system
has to be deactivated if a child
restraint system is to be fitted on this
seat. The side airbag and curtain
airbag systems, the belt
pretensioners and all driver airbag
systems will remain active.
The front passenger airbag system
can be deactivated via a key-
operated switch on the right side of
the instrument panel.

56Seats, restraints
Use the ignition key to choose the
position:OFF *=front passenger airbag is
deactivated and will not
inflate in the event of a
collision. Control indicator
OFF * illuminates
continuously in the centre console. A child restraint
system can be installed in
accordance with the chart
Child restraint installation
locations 3 58. No adult
person is allowed to occupy the front passenger seat.ON V=front passenger airbag is
active. A child restraint
system must not be
installed.9 Danger
Risk of fatal injury for a child using
a child restraint system on a seat
with activated front passenger
airbag.
Risk of fatal injury for an adult
person on a seat with deactivated
front passenger airbag.
If the control indicator ON V
illuminates for approx. 60 seconds
after the ignition is switched on, the
front passenger airbag system will
inflate in the event of a collision.
If both control indicators are
illuminated at the same time, there is
a system failure. The status of the
system is not discernible, therefore
no person is allowed to occupy the
front passenger seat. Contact a
workshop immediately.
Change status only when the vehicle
is stopped with the ignition off.
Status remains until the next change.
Control indicator for airbag
deactivation 3 108.

Seats, restraints57Child restraintsChild restraint systems
We recommend the Vauxhall child restraint system which is tailored
specifically to the vehicle.
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.9 Warning
When using a child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag systems for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated; if not, the triggering of the airbags poses a risk of fatal
injury to the child.
This is especially the case if rear-
facing child restraint systems are
used on the front passenger seat.
Airbag deactivation 3 55.
Airbag label 3 53.
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 makes sure that the child's backbone, which is still very
weak, is under less strain in the event
of an accident.
Suitable are child 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.
Notice
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.
