Safety and Security
Occupant safety
Front airbags
Driver and passenger airbags are de-
ployed:
in the event of certain frontal impacts
if impact exceeds a preset deployment
threshold
independently of the head-thorax air-
bags
The airbags will not deploy in impacts
which do not exceed the system's deploy-
ment thresholds. You will then be protect-
ed by the fastened seat belts.
The passenger airbag will only be deployed
if:
the passenger seat is occupied
the 7 indicator lamp on the glove
box is not lit ( page 76)
the impact exceeds a preset deploy-
ment threshold

1 Driver airbag
2 Passenger airbag
3 Kneebag
!
Do not place objects heavier than 20
lbs (9 kg) on the front passenger seat.
This could cause the front airbag or the
head-thorax airbag on the front passen-
ger side to deploy in a crash which ex-
ceeds the system's deployment
threshold.
Kneebag
The kneebag is located on the driver-side
lower instrument panel. It is designed to
operate together with the driver airbag in
certain frontal impacts exceeding a preset
threshold. The kneebag operates best in
conjunction with a properly positioned and
fastened seat belt.
