NOTE
The sensors react differently depending on
the course of the collision and whether or
not the seatbelts on the driver and passen-
ger side are used.
It is therefore possible that only one (or
none) of the airbags may inflate in a colli-
sion. The airbag system senses the force of
the collision on the car and adapts accord-
ingly so that one or more airbags are
deployed.
The capacity of the airbags is also adapted
to the collision force to which the vehicle is
subjected.
Location of the front passenger airbag in a left-
hand drive car.
Location of the front passenger airbag in a right-
hand drive car.
Airbag on the driver's side
The car has an airbag to supplement the pro-
tection afforded by the seatbelt on the driver's
side. It is folded up into the centre of the steer-
ing wheel. The steering wheel is marked
AIRBAG.
WARNING
The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seat-
belt is not used or is used incorrectly, this
may diminish the protection provided by the
airbag in the event of a collision.
Passenger airbag
The car has an airbag to supplement the pro-
tection afforded by the seatbelt on the passen-
ger side. It is folded up into a compartment
above the glovebox. Its cover panel is marked
AIRBAG.
WARNING
To minimise the risk of injury if the airbag
deploys, passengers must sit as upright as
possible with their feet on the floor and
backs against the backrest. Seatbelts must
be secured.
WARNING
Do not put objects in front of or above the
dashboard where the passenger airbag is
located.
