Airbag System
The airbag system consists of several
separate systems.
Front airbag system
The front airbag system will be triggered
in the event of a serious accident involving
a frontal impact and forms safety cushions
for the driver and front passenger. The
forward movement of the driver and front
passenger is checked and the risk of
injuries to the uppe r body a nd head
thereby substantially reduced.
Side airbag sys tem
The side airbag is triggered in the event of
a side-on collision to form a safety cushion
for the driver or front passenger in the
respectiv e door area. This substantially
reduces the ri sk of injury to the upper body
and pelvis.

Fault
If the central locking system canno t be
operated with the r adio remote control,
it may be due to the followin g:
z The range of the radio remote control
has been exceeded.
z Radio remote con trol battery voltage is
too low.
z Frequent, repeated operati on of
the radio remote control outside the
reception range of the vehicl e (e.g. too
far from vehicle, remote control is then
n o longer recognised). See remote
control synchronisati o n.
z If the central locking system is
o verloaded as a result of repeated
o peration at short intervals. The power
s upply is cut off for a brief peri od .
z Interference from higher-power radio
waves from other sourc es.
To elimi nate the ca use of a fault, we
recommend contacting a workshop
for assistance.
