Front Airbags - Alfa Romeo 4C Owner's Handbook Manual

Main safety rules to be followed when
carrying children
❒ follow the instructions supplied with
the child restraint system itself, which
the manufacturer must provide.
Keep the instructions in the car along
with the other documents and this
handbook.
Do not use child seats without
instructions; always check the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling the belt;
❒ only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry two
children using one child restraint system;
always check that the belts are not
resting on the child's neck;
❒ while travelling, do not let the child sit
incorrectly or release the belts;
❒ never carry children on your lap, even
newborns. No-one could hold on to a child
in the event of an accident; in the event of
an accident, replace the child restraint
system with a new one. Also have the
seat belt to which the child restraint
system was attached replaced.
❒ Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. Strictly comply with
the instructions provided when fitting a
child restraint system.
❒ When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or
remove it from the vehicle. Do not leave it
unsecured inside the passenger
compartment. In this way, in the case of
sudden braking or an accident, it will not
cause injuries to the occupants.
IMPORTANT
59) The diagrams are indicative and
provided for assembly purposes only. Fit
the child restraint system according to
the instructions, which must be included.

FRONT AIRBAGS

DRIVER AND PASSENGER FRONT
AIRBAGS
The car features multistage front airbags
("Smart bag system") for driver and
passenger.
The front driver/passenger airbags are
designed to protect occupants in the
event of frontal impacts of medium-high
severity, by placing the bag between the
occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Therefore, non-activation of the front
airbags in other types of collisions (side
collisions, rear shunts, rollovers, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
Airbags are not a replacement of but
complementary to the seat belts, which
you are recommended to always wear. In
the event of impact, those not wearing a
seat belt are projected forwards and may
come into contact with the bag which is
still inflating. The protection offered by
the bag is compromised in these
circumstances.
