Safety
●
The side and hea
d airbags are managed
through sensors located in the interior of the
front doors. To ensure the correct operation of
the side and curtain (head) airbags neither
the doors nor the door panels should be
modified in any way (e.g. fitting loudspeak-
ers). If the front door is damaged, the airbag
system may not work correctly. All work car-
ried out on the front door must be done in a
specialised workshop.
●
In a side-on collision the side airbags will
not work if the sensors do not correctly meas-
ure the pressure increase on the interior of
the doors, due to air escaping through the
areas with holes or openings in the door pan-
el.
●
Never drive if the interior door panels have
been removed or if the panels have not been
correctly fitted.
●
Never drive the vehicle if the loudspeakers
in the door panels have been removed, un-
less the holes left by the loudspeakers have
been closed properly.
●
Always check that the openings are closed
or covered if additional loudspeakers or other
equipment are fitted inside the door panels.
●
Any work carried out to the doors should be
made in an authorised specialised workshop.

WARNING
The airbag is deployed at high speed in frac-
tions of
a second.
●
Do not obstruct the head-protection airbag
deployment areas.
●
Never secure objects over the curtain air-
bag cover or in its deployment area.
●
Occupants of the front seats and rear side
seats must never carry any other people, ani-
mals or objects in the deployment space be-
tween them and the airbags. Make sure that
all the vehicle occupants, including children,
observe this.
●
The clothes hangers are intended only for
light articles of clothing. Do not leave any
heavy or sharp-edged objects in the pockets.
●
Do not mount accessories on the doors.
●
Use only sun blinds which have been ex-
pressly approved for use in your vehicle.
●
Do not turn the sun blinds towards the win-
dows if there are objects, e.g. pens or garage
remote controls, secured to them.
