Airbag System

The airbag system co nsist s 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 an d forms safety cu shions
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 system

T he side airbag is triggered in the even t of
a side-on collision to form a safety cushio n

for the driver or front passenger in the
respective door area. This substantially

reduces the risk of i njury to the upper body
and pelvis.

Fault

If the central locking system cannot be
operated with the radi o remote control,

it may be due to the follo wing:
z The range of the radio remote control

has been exceed ed.

z Radio remote control battery voltage is

too low.

z F requent, repeated operation of

the radio remote control out side the
reception range of the ve hicle (e.g. too

far from ve hicl e, remote control is th en
n o longer recognised). See remote

control synchr onisat ion.

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 fr om other sources.

To eliminate the cause of a fault, we
recommend contacting a workshop

for assistance.
Open driver’s door with key – see page 27.

Thr ee-stage sa fet y syste m

Com pri sing:

z Three-point seat belts.
z Belt tensioners at the seats.

z Airbag sy stems for driver and front

passenger.

The three stages are activated in sequence
depending on the severi ty of the accident:

z The automatic seat belt locking devices

prevent the belt strap from being pulled
out and thus ensure that the ve hicl e

o c cupants are retained in their seats.

z The seat belts are pulled down at the

belt buckles. This means the belts fit
snugly, th e occupants are d ecelerated

early with the vehicle and the body
load ing is reduced .

z The airbag systems are also triggered in

the event of severe accidents and form
a safety cushion for the occupants.

9 Wa r n i n g

The airbag sy stems serve to supplement
the three-point seat belts and belt

tensioners. The seat belts must therefore
always be worn. Disregard of these

instructions may lead to injuries or
endanger life. Vehi cle passengers should

be informed accordingly.

A lways read the instructions provided with
the child restraint system!

Three-point sea t b elts

The ve hicle is equipped with three-point
seat belts with automatic retractors and

locking devices, allowing freedom of body
movement although the spring tensioned

belts always ensure a snug fit.
For information on correct seating position

– see pages 4 7 , 4 8, 56.
The belt has a "vehicle sensitive retractor"

which is designed to lock during heavy
accel eration or d eceleration in any

dire ction.

51Seats, Interior

9 War n ing

Put on your seat belt befor e each trip –
even in urban traffic – it can s ave your life!

Pregnant women must always wear
a seat belt – see page54.

In the e vent of an accident, persons not
wearing seat belts endanger their fellow

occupan ts and t hemselv es.
Control indicator X 3 for the seat belt –

see page 68.

Seat belts are designed to be used by only
o ne person at a time. They are not s uitable

f or anyone un der 12 years of age or 150 cm.
For children up to 12 years of age, we

recommend the Vauxhall child restraint
system – see pa ge 55.

Testing th e belts

Check all parts of the belt system
periodically for damage and function.

Replace damaged components. After an
acciden t, h ave the belts and triggered be lt

tensioners replace d by a workshop.
Do not perf orm any al terations on the

belts, their anchorages, the automatic
retractors or the belt buckles.

Make sure that belts are n ot damaged
or trapped by sharp-edged objects.

52 Seats, Interior

Belt tensi one rs

The se at belts are fitted with belt tensioners.
The seat belts are pulled down at the

buckles on a front or rear impact above
a certain sev erity. Thi s tightens the belts.

Actuation of b elt tensioners

is indicated by illumination of control
indicator v, see next column.

If the belt te nsion ers are triggered, they
must be replaced by a workshop.

Further information – see page 53.

indicato r co mes on fo r a pprox. 4 s econds.
If it does not come on , or if it do es not go

out after 4 seconds, or if it comes on while
driving, there is a fault in the belt te nsioner

or airbag sys tems, see page 60.
The systems might not trigger in the ev ent

Deployment o f the belt tensioners is

indicated by continuous illumination of v.

53Seats, Interior

9 War n ing

Have t he cause o f the fault eliminated
im m e d ia t e l y b y a w o rk sho p .

Self-diagnosis integrated into the system
allows rapid fault identification.

Important

z Do not fit accessories not specifically

released for your vehicle type or store
objects in the belt tensioner operating

area (in the area of the belt ten s ioners)
due to the risk of injury in the event the

belt tensioners are triggered.

z Do not make any modifications to the

components of the belt tensioners, as
this will render the vehicle unroadworthy.

9 Wa r n i n g

Incorrec t handling (e.g. removal o r fi tting
of seat belts or belt buckles) can trigger

the be l t tensioners with risk of injury.

z The belt tensioner and airbag sys tem

control electronics can be fo und in the
centre console area. In order to av oid

malfunctions, do not store magneti c
objects in this area.

z We recommend that you have the front

seats removed by a workshop.

z The belt tensioners trigger once only,

in dicated by the illumination of the
control indicator v. Have a workshop

replace trigger ed belt tensioners.

z When disposing of the vehicle, the

safety instructions given for this must
be observed. Take the vehicle to

a recycling company fo r disposal.

54 Seats, Interior

Using the belts

F itting seat bel ts

Pull the belt out of the retractor and guide
it across the body, making certain that it is

not twisted.
Insert latch plate into buckle. Backrest must

not be tilted too far back as this would
affect the operation of the seat belts;

recomm ended tiltin g an gle approx. 25°.
The lap belt must be straight and lie snugly

against th e bo dy. Tight en lap belt at
frequent intervals whilst driving by tuggin g

diagonal part of belt.

9 Wa r n i n g

On pregnant women in particul ar, the
lap belt must be positioned as low as

poss ible across the pelvis so as not to
puttoo much p r essure on the abdomen.

Bu l ky clothing prevents th e be l t from fitting

Chi ld restrai n t sy stems3

When using a child restraint system, follow
the instructions for installation and use.

The country in which yo u are travelling
may not permi t the use of child restraint

sy stems on certain seats. Always comply
with the local or national regulations.

Selecting the right system

Your child s hould travel facing backwa rd s
in the c ar for as lon g as possible. A ch ild

has a very weak neck area and in the event
of an accident is less likely to s uffer injury in

a rearward-facing, semi-lying posit ion
than if seated upright.

9 War n ing

Ne ver carry child re straint systems on
you r lap, risk of fatal injury.

Airbag System

Front airbag

The front airbag system is identified by the
word AIRBAG on the steering wheel and

above the glove compartment.
The front airbag s yste m co mprises:

z an airbag with inflator in the steering

wheel and a second o ne in the
instrument panel,

z the control electronics with impact

sensor,

z co ntrol indicator for airbag systems v in

instrument panel,

z seat occupancy recognition 3,
z the control indicator for Vauxhall child

re str aint syst em s y with transponders 3
in the courtesy light.

The front airb ag system will be trigg ered :
z depending on the severity of the

accident

z depending on the type of impact
z within th e range shown in the illustration

z independently of the side airbag system.

Exception:
Pass enger seat with seat occupancy

recognition system 3. The seat occupancy
recognition system de a c tivates the front

and side airbags on the passenger side if
the front passenger seat is unoccupied or a

Vauxhall child restraint system with
transponders 3 h as been fitted to the front

passenger seat. Seat occupan cy
recognition – see page 60. Vauxhall child

restraint system with transponders 3 –
see page 61.

Examples of ev ents trig g ering the front
airbag system:

z Impact agains t a non-yielding obstacle:

the front airbags are triggered at low
vehicle speed.

z Impact against a yielding obstacle (such

as another vehicle): The front airbags are
only triggered at a higher vehicle speed.

57Seats, Interior

When triggere d, the f ront airbags inflate in
milliseconds and form a safety cushion for

driver and front passenger. Forward
movement is checked and the risk of

injuries to the uppe r body a nd head
thereby substantially reduced.

No impairment of view will occur, because
the air bags in flate and deflate so quickly

that it is often not eve n no tic ed in an
accident.

9 Wa r n i n g

The fron t airbag sy stem provides
optimum pr ot ect ion when the seat,

backrest and head restraint are correctly

according to the occupant’s height so
that when the driver is sitti ng upright, the

steering wheel is held in the area of its
upper sp okes with the d river’s arms

slightly bent. The passenger seat sh ould
be as far back as possible, with the

backrest upright ( see pages 46, 47, 48).
Do not place the head, bo dy, hands or

feet on the covers of the airbag systems.
Do not place any objects in the area

in which the airbags inflate. Important
informatio n – see page 62.

9 Wa r n ing

The th ree-p oint seat belt must be
correctly fitted – see p age 54.

The front airbag system will not be
triggered in the eventof

z the ignition is switched off

S ea t be lt s mu st t her efore alwa ys b e worn.
The front airbag system serves t o

suppl ement the three-point seat belts. If
you do not wear your seat belt you risk

bei ng se riously injured, or even thrown
from the vehicle, in the ev ent of an

accident.
In the event of an accident the belt helps

to k eep you in the correct seating
position, so that the front airbag s ystem

can provide you wi th effective protection.

In addition, the front airbag sys tem will not
be triggered for the front passenger in

Side airbags

The si de airbag system is identifi ed by the
word AIRBAG on the outboard sid es of the

seat backrests.
The side airbag system co mpr ises:

z an airbag with inflator in the back of

the driver’s and f ront passenger s eat
respectively,

z th e c ont ro l el ect ro n ic s,

z depending on the type of impact

z within the range shown in the illustration

on the driver’s or front passenger side

z independently of the front airbag system.

Vauxhall child restraint system with

transponders 3 – s ee page 61.

When deployed, the side air bag inflates
within milliseconds and forms a safety

cu shion for the driver or fro nt passenger
inthe respect ive front d oor area. Thi s

substantially reduces the risk of injury to
the upper body and pelvis in the event of

a side-on collision.
