Knee airbags
Fig. 1 On the driver side: location of the knee airbag.
Fig. 2 On the driver side: deployment zone of the knee airbag.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, a knee airbag may be installed on the driver side in the
lower part of the dash panel.
The location of the knee airbag is indicated by the “AIRBAG” label → Fig. 1 .
The area in the red frame is covered by the knee airbag when triggered (deployment zone)
→ Fig. 2 . For this reason, you must never leave or attach any items in this area →
.
WARNING
Once triggered, the airbag inflates in fractions of a second at very high speed.
●
Do not use any objects, e.g. key rings, that could interfere with the deployment zone of the
knee airbag.

●
Never secure any items on the cover or in the deployment zone of the knee airbag.
The knee airbag is deployed in the area in front of the driver's knees. Adjust the driver seat
so there is at least a 10 cm gap between the knees and the location of the knee airbag.
Contact a qualified workshop if your physical build makes this impracticable.
