passenger's front airbag if it is deactivated, in
the event of a
serious front impact to all or part
of the front impact zone A , in the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane
and directed from the front to the rear of the
vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the thorax
and head of the front occupant of the vehicle
