Airbags
1 Front airbags for driver and front
passenger
2 Side impact head protection system
(front and rear

3 Side airbags (front and rear side

Protective effect
The front airbags supplement the three-
point safety belts by helping to provide
additional protection for the front-seat
occupants in the event of a severe fron-
tal collision in which the protection af-
forded by the belts alone may no longer
be sufficient. The head protection and
side airbags help provide protection in
the event of a severe collision from the
side. Each of the side airbags is de-
signed to help support the upper body.

mation.<
