Seat belts

The seat belts are locked during
heavy acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle holding the occupants in
the sitting position. Therefore the risk
of injury is considerably reduced.

9 Warning

Fasten seat belt before each trip.
In the event of an accident, people

not wearing seat belts endanger
their fellow occupants and
themselves.

Seat belts are designed to be used by
only one person at a time. Child

Beyond the warning required by
ECE R94.02, for safety reasons a
forward-facing child restraint system
must only be used subject to the
instructions and restrictions in the
tables 3 45.

The airbag label is located on both
sides of the front passenger sun visor.

Airbag deactivation 3 42.

Front airbag system

The front airbag system consists of
one airbag in the steering wheel and
one in the instrument panel on the
front passenger side. The location is
identified by the word AIRBAG.

The front airbag system is triggered in
the event of a front-end impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and head of
the front seat occupants
considerably.

9 Warning

Optimum protection is only
provided when the seat is in the
proper position.

Seat position 3 32.
Keep the area in which the airbag

inflates clear of obstructions.

Seats, restraints 41

Fit the seat belt correctly and
engage securely. Only then is the
airbag able to protect.

Side airbag system

The side airbag system consists of an
airbag in each front seat backrest.
The location is identified by the word
AIRBAG.

The side airbag system is triggered in
the event of a side impact of a certain
severity. The ignition must be
switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and pelvis in
the event of a side-on collision
considerably.

9 Warning

Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.

Notice
Only use protective seat covers that
have been approved for the vehicle.
Be careful not to cover the airbags.

Curtain airbag system

The curtain airbag system consists of
an airbag in the roof frame on each
side. The location is identified by the
word AIRBAG on the roof pillars.

The curtain airbag system is triggered
in the event of a side-on impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the head in the event of a
side-on impact considerably.

42 Seats, restraints

9 Warning

Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.

The hooks on the handles in the
roof frame are only suitable for
hanging up light articles of
clothing, without coat hangers. Do
not keep any items in these
clothes.

Airbag deactivation

The front passenger airbag system
must be deactivated for a child
restraint system on the passenger
seat according to the instructions in
the tables 3 45.

The other airbag systems, the belt
pretensioners and all driver airbag
systems will remain active.

Use the ignition key to choose the
switch position:

*OFF

VON : front passenger airbag is

: front passenger airbag is

deactivated and will not
inflate in the event of a
collision. Control indicator
*OFF illuminates
continuously

active

9 Danger

Deactivate passenger airbag only
in combination with the use of a
child restraint system, subject to
the instructions and restrictions in
the tables 3 45.

Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal
injury for a person occupying a
seat with a deactivated front
passenger airbag.

Seats, restraints 43

If control indicator d illuminates for
approx. 60 seconds after the ignition
is switched on, the front passenger
airbag system will inflate in the event
of a collision.

If both control indicators are
illuminated at the same time, there is
a system failure. The status of the
system is not discernible, therefore
no person is allowed to occupy the
front passenger seat. Contact a
workshop immediately.

Change status only when the vehicle
is stopped with the ignition off.

Status remains until the next change.
Control indicator for airbag

deactivation 3 68.

Child restraints

Child restraint systems

We recommend Vauxhall child
restraint systems which are tailored
specifically to the vehicle.

The following child restraints are
recommended for the following
weight classes:

● Group 0, Group 0+
Maxi Cosi Cabriofix with ISOFIX

base, for children up to 13 kg

● Group I
Duo Plus with ISOFIX and Top

tether, for children from 9 kg to
18 kg in this group

● Group II, Group III
Kidfix with or without ISOFIX for

children from 15 kg to 36 kg

When a child restraint system is being
used, pay attention to the following
usage and installation instructions
and also those supplied with the child
restraint system.

Always comply with local or national
regulations. In some countries, the
use of child restraint systems is
forbidden on certain seats.

9 Danger

If using a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag system for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated. This also applies to
certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in
the tables 3 45.

Airbag deactivation 3 42.
Airbag label 3 37.

Selecting the right system

The rear seats are the most
convenient location to fasten a child
restraint system.

Children should travel facing
rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This ensures that the child's
backbone, which is still very weak, is
under less strain in the event of an
accident.

44 Seats, restraints

Only use suitable restraint systems,
e.g. those that comply with valid
UN ECE regulations.

Ensure that the child restraint system
to be installed is compatible with the
vehicle type. Refer to the tables on
the following pages, the instructions
supplied with the child restraint
system and the vehicle type list of
non-universal child restraint systems.

Ensure that the mounting location of
the child restraint system within the
vehicle is correct, see following
tables.

Remove rear head restraint before
mounting a child restraint system if
required.

Allow children to enter and exit the
vehicle only on the side facing away
from the traffic.

When the child restraint system is not
in use, secure the seat with a seat belt
or remove it from the vehicle.

Child restraint systems could be
fastened with ISOFIX mounting
brackets, Top-tether if available,
and/or a three-point seat belt. Refer
to the following tables.

Notice
Do not affix anything on the child
restraint systems and do not cover
them with any other materials.

A child restraint system which has
been subjected to stress in an
accident must be replaced.

Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or vehicle.

● The payload is the difference
between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 173) and the EC kerb
weight.

To calculate the payload, enter
the data for your vehicle in the
weights table at the front of this
manual.

The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (fuel
tank 90% full).

Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.

● Driving with a roof load increases
the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's
higher centre of gravity.
Distribute the load evenly and
secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
