and the airbag for
the front passenger is located in the dash

. Airbags are identified by the
word “AIRBAG”.
When the driver and front passenger airbags
are deployed, the covers remain attached to
the steering wheel and dashboard, respec-
tively ››› Fig. 14

.
In conjunction with the seat belts, the front
airbag system gives the front occupants ad- ditional protection for the head and chest in
the ev
ent of a severe frontal collision ››› .
Their special design all o
ws the controlled es-
cape of the propellant gas when an occu-
pant puts pressure on the bag. Thus, the
head and chest are protected by the airbag.
After the collision, the airbag deflates suffi-
ciently to allow visibility. WARNING
