The locations of the side airbags are indicated by the “AIRBAG” label.
The areas outlined in red are inside the deployment area of the side airbags → Fig. 1 and
→ Fig. 2 . You must never leave or attach any objects in these areas →
.
In the event of a side collision, the side airbags will be deployed on the side of the vehicle which
is impacted, thus reducing the risk of injury to the areas of the occupants' bodies facing the
impact.
WARNING
Once triggered, the airbag inflates in fractions of a second at very high speed.
●
●
Always leave the deployment zones of the side airbags clear.
There must be no other persons, animals or objects between the vehicle occupants sitting
on the front seats and rear outer seats and the deployment zones of the airbags. Ensure that
children and passengers keep to this rule.
●
The coat hooks in the vehicle should only be used for lightweight clothing. Do not leave any
heavy or sharp objects in the pockets.
●
●
Do not fit any accessories to the doors.
Do not fit seat covers or protective covers over the seats unless they have been expressly
approved for use in the vehicle. Otherwise the side airbag may not be able to inflate once
triggered.
WARNING
Incorrect use of the driver and front passenger seat could hinder the proper function of the side
airbag and cause serious injury.
●
Never remove the front seats from the vehicle or alter any components of these seats.
●
If too much pressure is applied to the backrest side bolsters, the side airbags may not be
triggered correctly, may not trigger at all, or may trigger accidentally.
●
Any damage to the original seat upholstery or around the seams of the side airbag units
must be repaired immediately by a qualified workshop.
