In conjunction with the seat belts, the front airbag system gives the driver and the front passenger additional protection for the head and chest in the event of a severe frontal col­lision.
Their special design allows the controlled es­cape of the propellant gas when an occupant puts pressure on the bag. Thus, the head and chest are protected by the airbag. After the collision, the airbag deflates sufficiently to allow visibility.

In conjunction with the seat belts, the side airbag system provides additional protection for the upper body in the event of a severe side collision ››› page 62, The whys
and wherefores of seat belts.
In a side collision, the side airbags reduce the risk of injury to passengers to the areas of the body facing the impact. In addition to the normal protection from the front seat belts, passengers are also held fast in the event of a side collision, and this is how these airbags provide maximum protection.

Child seats with the “ISOFIX” or Top Tether*
em can be secured quickly, easily and
syst safely on the rear outer seats.
When removing or fitting the child seat, please be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Move the rear seat as far to the rear as it
will go.
Press the child seat onto the “ISOFIX” re­taining rings until the child seat can be heard to engage. If the child seat is equipped with Top Tether* anchor points, secure it to the correspondent ring. Observe the manufactur­er's instructions.
Pull on both sides of the child seat to en­sure that it is secure.
Two “ISOFIX” retaining rings are fitted on each rear seat. In some vehicles, the rings are secured to the seat frame and, in others, they are secured to the rear floor. Access to the “ISOFIX” rings is between the rear seat backrest and the seat cushioning. The Top Tether* rings are located at the rear of the backrests of the rear seats (behind the seat backrest or in the boot).
Child seats with the “ISOFIX” and Top Tether* attachment system are available from Techni­cal Services.
