PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Airbags

WARNINGS

Do not modify the front of your vehicle in any way. This could adversely affect deployment of the

airbags.

Original text according to ECE R94.01: Extreme Hazard! Do not use

a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it!

Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient

distance between yourself and the

steering wheel. Only when you use the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a position that allows the airbag to achieve its optimum effect. See Sitting in the correct position (page 76).

Have repairs to the steering wheel,

steering column, seats, airbags and

seat belts carried out by a properly trained technician.

Keep the areas in front of the

airbags free from obstruction. Do

not affix anything to or over the airbag covers.

Do not poke sharp objects into

areas where airbags are fitted. This

could damage and adversely affect deployment of the airbags.

Use seat covers designed for seats

with side airbags. Have these fitted

by a properly trained technician.

Note:

You will hear a loud bang and see a cloudof harmless powdery residue if an airbag deploys. This is normal.

Note:

Only wipe airbag covers with a damp cloth.

Driver and front passenger airbags

E74302

The driver and front passenger airbags will deploy during significant frontal collisions or collisions that are up to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The airbags will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus cushioning forward body movement. During minor frontal collisions, overturns, rear collisions and side collisions, the driver and front passenger airbags will not deploy.

Driver knee airbag

CAUTION

Do not attempt to open the driver knee airbag cover.

The driver knee airbag will deploy during frontal collisions or collisions that are up to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The airbag will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing a cushion between the driver’s knees and the steering column. During overturns, rear collisions and side collisions, the knee airbag will not deploy.

For item location: See Quick start (page

8).

Occupant protection

Note:

The knee airbag has a lower deployment threshold than the front airbags. During a minor collision, it is possible that only the knee airbag deploys.

Side airbags

E72658

Side airbags are fitted inside the seatback of the front seats. A label indicates that side airbags are fitted to your vehicle.

The side airbags will deploy during significant lateral collisions. The airbags will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing protection for the chest and shoulder areas. During minor lateral collisions, overturns, front collisions and rear collisions, the side airbags will not deploy.

Curtain airbags

E75004

Curtain airbags are fitted inside the trim panels over the front and rear side windows. Moulded badges in the B-pillar trim panels indicate that curtain airbags are fitted to your vehicle.

The curtain airbags will deploy during significant lateral collisions. The airbag will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing protection for the head. During minor lateral collisions, front collisions, rear collisions, or overturns the curtain airbags will not deploy.

Seat belts

WARNINGS

Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient distance between yourself and the

steering wheel. Only when you use the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a position to achieve its optimum effect. See Sitting in the correct position (page 76).

Never use a seat belt for more than

one person.

Use the correct buckle for each seat

belt.

Occupant protection

WARNINGS

Do not use a seat belt that is slack or twisted.

Do notwear thick clothing. The seat belt must fit tightly around your body to achieve its optimum effect.

Position the shoulder strap of the seat belt over the centre of your shoulder and position the lap strap

tightly across your hips.

The driver and front passenger seat belt retractors are fitted with a seat belt pretensioner. Seat belt pretensioners have a lower deployment threshold than the airbags. During minor collisions, it is possible that only the seat belt pretensioners will deploy.

Status after a collision

WARNING

Seat belts subjected to strain, as a result of an accident, should be renewed and the anchorages

checked by a properly trained technician.

FASTENING THE SEAT BELTS

WARNING

Insert the tongue into the buckle until you hear a distinct click. You have not fastened the seat belt

properly if you do not hear a click.

E74124

E85817

Pull the belt out steadily. It may lock if you pull it sharply or if the vehicle is on a slope.

Press the red button on the buckle to release the belt. Let it retract completely and smoothly.

Occupant protection

SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

E104440

Note:

Lifting the slider slightly while pressing the locking button makes it easier to release the locking mechanism.

To raise or lower, press the locking button on the adjuster and move as necessary.

SEAT BELT REMINDER

WARNING

The occupant protection system will only provide optimum protection when you use the seat belt properly.

The seat belt reminder warning lamp illuminates and an audible

warning will sound if the driver's or front seat passenger's seat belt has not been fastened and the vehicle exceeds a relatively low speed. It will also illuminate if the driver's or front seat passenger's seat belt is unfastened when the vehicle is moving. The audible warning will go off after five minutes but the seat belt reminder warning lamp will remain on until the driver's or front seat passenger's seat belt is fastened.

Deactivating the seat belt reminder

See your dealer.

USING SEAT BELTS DURING PREGNANCY

E68587

WARNING

Position the seat belt correctly for your safety and that of your unborn child. Do not use only the lap strap

or the shoulder strap.

Position the lap strap comfortably across your hips and low beneath your pregnant abdomen. Position the shoulder strap between your breasts, above and to the side of your pregnant abdomen.

DISABLING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG

WARNING

Make sure that the passenger airbag is disabled when using a rearward facing child restraint on the

front passenger seat.

Occupant protection

E71313

Fitting the passenger airbag deactivation switch

WARNING

If you need to fit a child restraint on a seat protected by an operational

airbag in front of it, have a passenger airbag deactivation switch fitted. Ask your dealer for further information.
