ditional protection for the head and chest in
the event of a severe frontal collision
Their special design allows the controlled es-

WARNING
The deployment space between the front

passengers and the airbags must not in
any case be occupied by other passenger,
pets and objects.
The airbags provide protection for just

deployed.
It is also important not to attach any ob-

jects such as cup holders or telephone
mountings to the surfaces covering the air-
bag units.
