The key can be inserted and removed in
both positions.
IMPORTANT Use the switch only with
the engine off and the ignition key
removed.
The key-operated switch has two posi-
tions:
– passenger's front air bag activated
(ON position P): warning light F on
instrument cluster off; it is absolutely pro-
hibited to carry a child on the front seat.
– passenger's front air bag deactivated
(OFF position F): warning light F on
instrument cluster on; it is possible to
carry a child protected by special restraint
systems on the front seat.
The warning light F on the cluster
stays on permanently until the passen-
ger's air bag is reactivated.
Deactivation of the passenger's front air
bag does not inhibit operation of the side
air bag.
SIDE AIR BAGS
(SIDE BAG - WINDOW BAG)
SIDE BAG (fig. 53)
The side bag is formed of an instanta-
neously-inflating cushion housed in the
back rest of the front seat and protects the
chest of occupants in case of a side crash
of medium-high severity.

WINDOW BAG (fig. 54)
The window bag is formed of two "cur-
tain" cushions housed in the side roof lin-
ing covered by a special trim, which pro-
tects the head of front and rear occupants
in the event of a side crash thanks to the
wide cushion inflation surface.
IMPORTANT In the event of side
crash, you can obtain the best protection
by the system keeping a correct position
on the seat, thus allowing correct window
bag unfolding.
