80)Always make sure that the chest section
of the seat belt does not pass under the
arms or behind the back of the child. In the
event of an accident the seat belt will not be
able to secure the child, with the risk of
injury, including fatal injury. Therefore the
child must always wear the seat belt
correctly.
81)Do not use the same lower anchorage to
install more than one child restraint system.
82)If a Universal ISOFIX child restraint
system is not fixed to all three anchorages, it
will not be able to protect the child correctly.
In a crash, the child could be seriously or
fatally injured.
83)Fit the child restraint system when the
car is stationary. The child restraint system
is correctly fixed to the brackets when you
hear the click. Follow the instructions for
assembly, disassembly and positioning that
the Manufacturer must supply with the child
restraint system.
84)If the vehicle was involved in an accident
of a certain severity, have the ISOFIX
anchorages and the child restraint system
replaced.
85)If the vehicle was involved in an accident
of a certain severity, have both the child
restraint system and the seat belt it was
attached to replaced.SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS) - AIRBAG
The vehicle is equipped with:
front driver airbag;
front passenger airbag;
driver and passenger front side bags
for pelvis, chest and shoulder protection
(Side bags);
side bags for head protection of front
seat passengers and rear side seat
passengers (window bag).
The location of the airbags on the vehicle
is marked by the word "AIRBAG" in the
middle of the steering wheel below the
Alfa Romeo emblem, on the dashboard,
on the side trim or on a label placed next
to the airbag deployment area.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front (driver and passenger) airbags
protect the front seat occupants in the
event of head-on crashes of medium-high
severity, by placing the cushion between
the occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Therefore non-activation of airbags in
other types of collisions (side impacts,
rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not
indicate a system malfunction.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of but complementary
to the seat belts, which should always beworn, as specified by law in Europe and
most non-European countries.
In the event of impact, those not wearing
a seat belt are projected forwards and
may come into contact with the bag
which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is compromised in
these circumstances.
Front airbags may not activate in the
following situations:
frontal impacts against highly
deformable objects not involving the
front surface of the vehicle (e.g. wing
collision against guard rail, etc.);
vehicle wedging under other vehicles
or protective barriers (e.g. trucks or
guard rails).
Failure to activate in the conditions
described above is due to the fact that
they may not provide any additional
protection compared with seat belts, so
their activation would be inappropriate.
In these cases, non-deployment does not
indicate a system malfunction.
Driver's side front airbag
This consists of an instantly inflating bag
contained in a special compartment in the
centre of the steering wheel fig. 93.
