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.

age to the vehicle.
