Driver's Front Air Bag - Alfa Romeo Brera Owner's Manual

Front air bags may not be activated in
the following situations:
❒ front collisions against highly de-
formable objects not affecting the
car front surface (e.g. bumper colli-
sion against guard rail, etc.);
❒ in case of wedging under other ve-
hicles or protective barriers (for ex-
ample under a truck or guard rail);
❒ the air bag is not triggered as it offers
no additional protection compared
with the seat belts, consequently it
would be pointless. Therefore, failure
to come into action in the above cir-
cumstance does not mean that the
system is not working properly.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers
or other objects to the
steering wheel or to the air
bag cover on the passenger's
side or on the side roof lining.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile
phones) on the dashboard on
passenger side since they
could interfere with proper
passenger air bag inflation and
also cause serious injury.
