64 Safety systems
When triggered the curtain airbag inflates
within milliseconds and provides a safety
barrier in the head area on the respective
side of the vehicle. This reduces the risk of
injury to the head considerably in case of a
side impact.
9
Warning
There must be no objects in the area in
which the airbag inflates. Do not place
the hands or arms on the covers of the
airbag systems. Important information –
see page 66.
The three-point seat belt must always be
correctly fitted – see page 57.
The curtain airbags will not be triggered in
the event of:
z the ignition is switched off,
z frontal collisions,
z accidents in which the vehicle overturns,
z collisions involving a rear impact,
z collisions involving a side impact outside
the passenger cell.

Airbag control indicator v
The front airbag system, side airbag
system 3 and curtain airbag system 3 are
monitored electronically together with the
belt tensioners, and their operational
readiness shown by the control indicator in
the instrument panel. When the ignition is
switched on, the control indicator lights up
then extinguishes. If it does not light up, or
if it lights up during driving, there is a fault
in the airbag systems or the belt tensioners.
The systems might not be triggered in the
event of an accident.
9
Warning
Have the cause of the fault remedied. We
recommend that you consult your
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
The system's integral self-diagnosis facility
allows faults to be quickly remedied. Have
your Car Pass ready to hand when
consulting a Vauxhall Authorised Repairer.
