SAFETY
120
being as far away as possible from the
steering wheel. Being too close to the
steering wheel when the airbag is deployed
may cause serious injury.
98) The passenger airbag can be
deactivated on the Connect system
by selecting the following functions in
sequence on the main menu: “Settings”;
“Safety”; “Passenger air bag” and
“Deactivation”.
99) Do not affix rigid objects to the garment
hooks or support handles.
100) Do not rest your head, arms or elbows
on the door, on the windows or in the
window bag area to prevent injury during
deployment.
101) Never lean your head, arms or elbows
out of the window.
102) If when setting the ignition device to
ON the warning light does not turn on
or stays on whilst driving, a failure may
have occurred in the restraint systems. In
this case the air bags or pretensioners may
not be deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before continuing, contact an
Alfa Romeo Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.
103) In case of a LED OFF failure
(located on the front courtesy light), the
warning light appears on the instrument
panel.
104) On cars with side bags, do not cover the
front seat backrests with extra covers.
105) Do not travel with objects in your lap,
in front of your chest or held in your mouth
(e.g., pipe, pencil etc.). They could cause
severe injury if the airbag is deployed in a
crash.
106) If the car has been subject to theft,
attempted theft, vandalism, or flooding,
have the air bag system inspected at an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.
107) Malfunction of the airbag failure
warning light is indicated by the activation
of an airbag failure icon and a dedicated
message on the instrument panel display.
The pyrotechnic charges are not disabled.
Before continuing, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
108) The front airbag deployment threshold
is higher than that of the pretensioners. For
impacts whose intensity falls between the
two levels, normally, only the pretensioners
will be activated.
109) The airbag does not replace seat belts
but increases their efficiency. Because front
airbags are not deployed for low-speed
crashes, side collisions, rear-end shunts
or rollovers, occupants are protected, in
addition to any side bags, only by their seat
belts, which must therefore always be
fastened.
