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

upplement the action of the force-limiting
s

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.
The airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off.
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. 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 may
r
esult in a slight loss of hearing for a
s
hort time.
