2016 VAUXHALL CORSA deactivate airbag

48Seats, restraintsCurtain airbag system
The curtain airbag system consists of an airbag in the roof frame on each
side. The location is 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.
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 must be deactivated for child restraint
system on the passenger seat
according to the instructions in the
tables 3 51.
The other airbag systems, the belt
pretensioners and all driver airbag
systems will remain active.Use the ignition key to choose the
switch 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 consoleV ON:front passenger airbag is
active

Seats, restraints499Danger
Deactivate passenger airbag only
in combination with the use of a
child restraint system, subject to
the instructions and restrictions in
the tables 3 51.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal
injury for a person occupying a
seat with a deactivated front
passenger airbag.
If the control indicator 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 91.Child restraints
Child restraint systems
We recommend Vauxhall child
restraint systems which are tailored
specifically to the vehicle.
The following child restraints are recommended for the following
weight classes:
● Group 0, Group 0+
Maxi Cosi Cabriofix plus Easyfix, for children up to 13 kg
● Group I
VAUXHALL Duo, for children
from 13 kg to 18 kg in this group
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.
Check local laws and regulations for
mandatory use of child restraint
systems. In some countries, the use
of child restraint systems is forbidden
on certain seats.

50Seats, restraints9Danger
If using a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag system for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated. This also applies to certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in
the tables 3 51.
Airbag deactivation 3 48.
Airbag label 3 43.
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.
Selecting the right system Only use suitable restraint systems,
e.g. those that comply with valid
UN ECE regulations.
Ensure that the child restraint system to be installed is compatible with the
vehicle type. Refer to the tables on
the following pages, the instructions
supplied with the child restraint
system and the vehicle type list of
non-universal child restraint systems.
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 beltor remove it from the vehicle.
Child restraint systems could be
fastened with ISOFIX mounting
brackets, Top-tether if available,
and/or a three-point seat belt. Refer
to the following tables.
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.
