Curtain airbags*
System which contributes towards the
protection of the driver and passengers (with
the exception of the rear centre passenger) in
the event of a serious side impact, in order to
limit the risk of injury to the side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is fitted in the pillars and the
upper part of the passenger compartment.
Deployment
It is deployed at the same time as the
corresponding lateral airbag in the event of a
serious side impact to all or part of the side
impact zone B, perpendicular to the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane
and directed from the outside towards the
inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag inflates between the front or
rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.
* Depending on the country of sale.

The knee airbag improves protection for the
driver's knees in the event of a serious front
impact.
It is fitted in the dashboard below the steering
column.
