Airbag system
is a danger that during a collision, the sys-
tem may fail to trigger, or not trigger cor-
rectly.
Airbag activation
The airbags deploy extremely rapidly, within
thousands of a second, to provide additional
protection in the event of an accident. A fine
dust may develop when the airbag deploys.
This is normal and it is not an indication of
fire in the vehicle.
The airbag system is only ready to function
when the ignition is on.
In special accidents instances, several air-
bags may activate at the same time.
Airbags do not activate in the event of mi-
nor head-on and side collisions or rear-end
collisions. Airbags only activate if the vehicle
overturns in the hybrid plug-in version of the
vehicle.
Activation factors
The conditions that lead to the airbag system
activating in each situation cannot be gener-
alised. Some factors play an important role,
such as the properties of the object the ve-
hicle hits (hard/soft), angle of impact, vehi-
cle speed, etc.
Deceleration trajectory is key for airbag acti-
vation.
The control unit analyses the collision trajec-
tory and activates the respective restraint
system.
If the deceleration rate is below the prede-
fined reference value in the control unit the
airbags will not be triggered, even though
the accident may cause extensive damage to
the car.
The following airbags are triggered in seri-
ous head-on collisions:
Driver airbag.
Front passenger front airbag
Knee airbag for the driver.
Head airbags (depending on the severity of
the crash).
In the event of serious side collisions,
some (or all) of the following airbags can
be activated (depending on the severity of
the collision):
Curtain (head) airbag on the side of the ac-
cident.
Front side airbag on the side of the acci-
dent.
Rear side airbag on the side of the acci-
dent.
Central airbag.
In an accident with airbag activation:
the interior lights switch on (if the interior
light switch is in the courtesy light position);
the hazard warning lights switch on;
all doors are unlocked;
the fuel supply to the engine is cut;
in hybrid vehicles, the high voltage system
is switched off;
an emergency call is started.
