Curtain airbags

Description of curtain airbags

The airbag system is not a substitute for the seat belts.

The curtain airbags are located on both sides in the interior above the doors

⇒ fig. 23 and are identified with the text “AIRBAG”.

In conjunction with the seat belts, the curtain airbag system gives the occu-

pants additional protection for the head and upper body in the event of a

severe side collision ⇒ page 38, “Safety notes on the operation of the

curtain airbag system”.

The airbag system is not a substitute for seat belts, but is an integral part of

the vehicle's overall passive safety system. Please bear in mind that the

airbag system can only work effectively when the occupants are wearing their

seat belts correctly and have adjusted the head restraints properly. For this

reason, it is most important to wear the seat belts at all times, not only

because this is required by law in most countries, but also for your safety

The main parts of the curtain airbag system are:

• an electronic control and monitoring system (control unit),

• the curtain airbags (airbags with gas generator) for the driver, front

passenger and passengers on the rear seats,

• a warning lamp  in the dash panel insert ⇒ page 28.

The functionality of the airbag system is monitored electronically.

The curtain airbag system will not be triggered

• if the ignition is switched off,

• during a frontal collision,

• during a rear-end collision,

• if the vehicle rolls,

• or during a minor frontal collision.

WARNING

If a fault should occur in the airbag system, have the system checked imme-

diately by a qualified workshop. Otherwise there is a danger that during a

collision, the system may fail to trigger, or not trigger correctly.

Function of curtain airbags

Fully inflated airbags reduce the risk of head or chest injury in

a side collision.

During some side collisions the curtain airbag is triggered on the impact side

of the vehicle ⇒ fig. 24.

In certain types of accident the front, side and curtain airbags may be trig-

gered together.

When the system is triggered, the airbag is filled with propellant gas. In the

process, the curtain bag covers the side windows and door pillars.

In order to provide the desired extra protection in an accident, the airbags

have to deploy extremely rapidly (within fractions of a second). A fine dust

may develop when the airbag deploys. This is normal and is no indication

that there was a fire in the vehicle.

The fully deployed airbags cushion the movement of the front occupants and

help to reduce the risk of injury to the upper body.

The special design of the airbag allows the controlled escape of the propel-

lant gas when an occupant puts pressure on the bag. Thus, the head and

chest are surrounded and protected by the airbag.

Safety notes on the operation of the curtain airbag system

If you use airbags correctly, they can considerably reduce the

risk of injury in many kinds of accident.

WARNING

• In order for the side airbags to provide their maximum protection, the

prescribed sitting position must always be maintained with seat belts

fastened while travelling.

• For safety reasons, the head air bag must be disconnected in those

vehicles fitted with a passenger compartment separation screen. See an

Authorised Service Centre to make this adjustment.

• There must be no other persons, animals or objects between the occu-

pants of the outer seats and the deployment space of the curtain airbags

so that the curtain airbag can deploy without restriction and provide the

greatest possible protection. Therefore, sun blinds which have not been

expressly approved for use in your vehicle may not be attached to the side

windows.

• The built-in coat hooks should be used only for lightweight clothing. Do

not leave any heavy or sharp-edged objects in the pockets. When using the

coat hooks, do not hang the clothes on coat hangers.

• The airbags provide protection for one accident only, if they have been

deployed they must be replaced.

• Any work on the curtain airbag system or removal and installation of

the airbag components for other repairs (such as removal of the roof lining)

should only be performed by a qualified workshop. Otherwise, a fault may

be introduced into the operation of the airbag system.

• Do not attempt to modify components of the airbag system in any way.

• The side and head airbags are managed through sensors located in the

interior of the front doors. To ensure the correct functioning of the side and

head airbags neither the doors nor the door panels should be modified in

any way (e.g. fitting loudspeakers). If the front door is damaged in any way,

this may affect the correct working of the system. All work carried out on

the front door must be made in a qualified workshop.

Deactivating airbags*

Disabling front passenger airbag

If you fit a rear-facing child seat to the front passenger seat,

the front passenger airbag must be de-activated.

When the passenger airbag is deactivated, this means that only the

frontal and side airbags are deactivated. All the other airbags in the

vehicle remain functional.

Disabling front passenger airbag

– Switch off ignition.

– Turn the ignition switch in the key operated switch in the glove

box to the position OFF ⇒ fig. 25.

– Check that the warning lamp “AIRBAG OFF” in the dash panel

⇒ fig. 26 remains lit ⇒ when the ignition is switched on.

Enabling front passenger airbag

– Switch off ignition.

– Turn the ignition switch in the key-operated switch in the glove

box to the position ON ⇒ fig. 25.

Safety First Operating instructions Tips and Maintenance Technical Data

– Check that the warning lamp “AIRBAG OFF” in the dash panel

does ⇒ page 40, fig. 26 not light up when the ignition is

switched on ⇒ .

WARNING

• The driver is responsible for the proper position of the key-operated

switch.

• You should deactivate the front passenger airbag only if you have to use

a rear-facing child seat in exceptional cases. ⇒ page 42, “Child safety”.

• Never install a child seat facing backwards (or rear-facing) on the front

passenger seat unless the front passenger airbag has been disabled. This

represents a risk of fatal injuries to the child! However, if it is necessary in

exceptional circumstances to transport a child in a rear-facing child seat on

the front passenger seat, you must always disable the front passenger

airbag.

• As soon as the child seat is no longer needed on the front passenger

seat, enable the front passenger airbag again.

• Only deactivate the passenger airbag when the ignition is off, other-

wise a fault may occur in the airbag system, this will create a danger that

in case of an accident, the airbag does not deploy properly or does not

deploy at all.

• When the passenger airbag is deactivated, if the warning lamp AIRBAG

OFF is not continuously lit up when the front passenger airbag is disabled,

there may be a fault in the airbag system:

− Have the airbag system inspected immediately by a qualified work-

shop.

− Do not use a child seat on the front passenger seat! The front

passenger airbag could be triggered despite the fact that there is a fault

in the system and, as a result, a child could sustain serious or fatal inju-

ries.

− It is not certain whether the front passenger airbag will deploy

during an accident! Inform your passengers of this.

• When using the ignition key to activate / deactivate the passenger

frontal airbag, only the passenger frontal and side airbag will be activated/

deactivated. The curtain airbag on the passenger side will remain

active.

Child safety42

Child safety

Brief introduction

Introduction

Statistics show that children are generally safer on the rear

seat than on the front passenger seat.

We recommend that children under 12 years of age be transported on the rear

seats. Children travelling on the rear seat must use a child restraint system or

the seat belts provided, depending on their age, height and weight. For

safety reasons, the child restraint system should be installed in the centre of

the rear seat or behind the front passenger's seat.

The physical principles involved and the forces acting in a collision apply to

children just as much as adults ⇒ page 18, “Why wear seat belts?”. But

unlike adults, children do not have fully developed muscle and bone struc-

tures. This means that children are subject to a greater risk of injury.

To reduce this risk, children must always use special child restraint systems

when travelling in the vehicle.

We recommend the use of child safety products from the SEAT Genuine Acces-

sories Program including systems for all ages made by “Peke”

These systems have been especially designed and approved, complying with

the ECE-R44. regulation.

Follow the manufacturer's instructions and observe any statutory require-

ments when installing and using child seats. Always read and observe

⇒ page 43, “Safety notes on using child seats”.

We recommend that you include the manufacturer's directions for child seat

use in the vehicle wallet and always keep them in the vehicle.

Not for all countries

Safety notes on using child seats

Proper use of child seats substantially reduces the risk of

injury in an accident!

As the driver, you are responsible for any children you transport in

your vehicle.

– Protect your children by properly using appropriate child seats

⇒ page 44.

– Always ensure that the belt webbing is properly positioned

according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the

child seat.

– When travelling, do not allow children to distract you from traffic.

– Take breaks regularly during long trips. Take a break at least

every two hours.

WARNING

• Never install a child seat facing backwards (or rear-facing) on the front

passenger seat unless the front passenger airbag has been disabled. This

represents a risk of fatal injuries to the child! However, if it is necessary, in

exceptional cases, to transport a child in the front passenger seat, the front

passenger airbag must always be disabled ⇒ page 40, “Deactivating

airbags*”. If the passenger seat has a height adjustment option, move it to

the highest position.

• For those vehicles that do not include a key lock switch to turn the

airbag off, an Authorised Service Centre must be consulted.

• All passengers, especially children, must assume the proper sitting

position and be properly belted in while travelling.

• Never hold children or babies on your lap, this can result in potentially

fatal injuries to the child!

• Never allow a child to be transported in a vehicle without being properly

secured, or to stand up or kneel on a seat while travelling. In an accident,

the child could be flung through the vehicle, causing possibly fatal injuries

to themselves and other occupants.

• If children assume an improper sitting position when the car is moving,

they expose themselves to greater risk of injury during a sudden braking

manoeuvre or in an accident. This is particularly the case if the child is trav-

elling on the front passenger seat and the airbag system is triggered in an

accident; this could have consequences including serious injury or death.

• A suitable child seat can protect your child!

• Never leave a child unsupervised in a child seat or alone in the vehicle.

• Depending on weather conditions, it may become extremely hot or cold

inside the vehicle. This can be fatal.

• Children who are less than 1.5 metres tall must not wear a normal seat

belt without a child restraint system, as this could cause injuries to the

abdominal and neck areas during a sudden braking manoeuvre or in an

accident.

• Do not allow the belt webbing to become twisted or jammed, or to rub

on any sharp edges.

• Incorrectly worn seat belts can cause injuries even in a minor collision

or sudden braking manoeuvres.

• The seat belt provides maximum protection only when the belt web is

properly positioned ⇒ page 22, “Seat belts”.

• Only one child may occupy a child seat ⇒ page 44, “Child seats”.

Securing child seats

Ways to secure a child seat

A child seat can be secured differently on the rear seat and on the front passenger seat.

You can secure a child seat to the rear seat or front passenger seat in the

following ways:

• Child seats in groups 0 to 3 can be secured with a seat belt.

• Child seats from the groups 0, 0+ and 1 using the “ISOFIX” and

“Toptether” systems or the antirotation system may be secured without using

the adult seatbelt and using the “ISOFIX” and “Toptether” anchors or the anti-

rotation mechanism/brackets ⇒ page 48.

U: Suitable for universal approved restraining systems for use in this age

category (universal retention systems are those fitted using the adult

seat belt.

UF Suitable for universal forward-facing retention systems approved for use

with this age group.

*: Move the passenger seat as far to rear as possible, as high as possible

and always deactivate the airbag.

L: Suitable for retention systems using the “ISOFIX” and “Toptether”

anchors or antirotation mechanism/bracket.

X Seat position not suitable for children in this age group.

WARNING

• When travelling, children must be secured in the vehicle with a

restraint system suitable for age, weight and size.

• Never install a child seat facing backwards (or rear-facing) on the front

passenger seat unless the front passenger airbag has been disabled. This

represents a risk of fatal injuries to the child! However, if a child must,

under exceptional circumstances, travel in the front passenger seat, the

passenger airbag must be deactivated ⇒ page 40, “Deactivating airbags*”

and the seat put into the highest position where possible.

• Read and always observe information and warnings concerning the use

of child seats ⇒ in “Safety notes on using child seats” on page 43.

Securing the child seat using the “ISOFIX” and “Toptether”

system or the antirotation mechanism/system

Child seats with the “ISOFIX” and “Toptether” system can be

secured quickly, easily and safely on the rear outer seats.

When removing or fitting the child seat, please be sure to follow the

manufacturer's instructions.

– Move the seat as far to rear as it will go.

– Press the child seat onto the “ISOFIX” retaining rings until the

child seat can be heard to engage securely. If the child seat is

fitted with “Toptether” anchoring, connect it to the corre-

sponding ring. If the child seat is fitted with any other antirota-

tion system, follow the manufacturer instructions carefully.

– 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. The “ISOFIX” rings can be accessed between the seat back and the seat

cushion. The “Toptether” rings are located in the rear space in the back. They

are often located on the rear of the seat backs.

Child seats with “ISOFIX” and “Toptether” mountings are available from the

Authorised Service Centres.

WARNING

• The retaining rings are designed only for use with “ISOFIX” and

“Toptether” systems.

• Never secure child seats that do not have the “ISOFIX” or “Toptether”

system, retaining belts or objects to the fastening rings – this can result in

potentially fatal injuries to the child!

• Ensure that the child seat is secured correctly using the “ISOFIX” and

“Toptether” anchors.
