Overview
ISOFIX
WARNING
On the retaining eyelets that are used to install the
▶
child seat with the ISOFIXSystem provided, do not
attach any other child seats, belts or objects.
The ISOFIXSystem enables the child seat to be at-
tached quickly and securely. The Holding eyes for in-
stalling the child seat using the ISOFIX-System are
located on the outer rear seats, possibly also on the
front passenger seat.
A child seat with the ISOFIX-System can only be in-
stalled in the vehicle if it is approved for this vehicle
type. More information is available by asking a ŠKO-
DA partner or from a vehicle list that comes with the
child seat.

Airbags
Usage
The airbag system offers additional occupant protec-
tion in the event of severe frontal and side collisions,
as a supplement to the seat belts.
The best possible protective effect of the airbag is
achieved only when the seat belt is also worn. The
airbag system is no substitute for the seat belts.
Functionality
When sinking into the inflated airbag, the forward
movement of the body is damped and the risk of in-
jury is reduced.
As the airbags inflate, smoke is released. This
does not indicate a vehicle fire.
Airbag deployment in the event of an accident
Airbag deployment is influenced by many factors.
The decisive factor is the deceleration curve that oc-
curs on impact.
WARNING
Danger of serious or fatal injuries!
Maintain the correct seating position.
▶
Do not keep your limbs in the deployment area of
▶
the airbags.
The airbag is not deployed in the following situa-
tions.
Minor frontal and side collisions.
▶
Rear collision.
▶
Vehicle rollover.
▶
If the measured deceleration rate is below the refer-
ence values programmed in the control unit, the air-
bags are not deployed despite possible serious dam-
age to the vehicle.
