Location of the passenger airbag in left-hand drive
and right-hand drive cars
WARNING
Do not put objects in front of or above the
instrument panel where the passenger air-
bag is located.
1 Not all cars have a passenger airbag (SRS). This can be unselected when the car is ordered.
Airbag (SRS) on the driver's side
The car has an SRS airbag (Supplemental
Restraint System) in the steering wheel to sup-
plement the protection afforded by the seatbelt
on the driver's side. This airbag is folded up
into the centre of the steering wheel. The steer-
ing wheel is marked SRS AIRBAG.
WARNING
The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seat-
belt is not used or is used incorrectly, this
may diminish the protection provided by the
airbag in the event of a collision.
