When the airbag inflates, smoke is released. This is not a sign of a fire in the
vehicle.
Triggering conditions
It is not possible to generally determine which deployment conditions apply to
the airbag system in every situation. The important factors here are the hard-
ness of the object with which the vehicle collides, the angle of impact, vehicle
speed etc.
Deceleration during impact plays an important role in the deployment of the
airbags. If the vehicle deceleration which occurs and is measured remains be-
low the prescribed reference values specified in the control unit, the airbags
are not deployed although the vehicle may well suffer severe damage to the
bodywork as a consequence of the accident.
The following airbags will be deployed in the event of a severe frontal
collision.
Driver’s front airbag.
Front passenger airbag.
The following airbags will be deployed in the event of a severe side
collision.
Front side airbag.
Head airbag.
When an airbag is deployed, the following events occur.
The hazard warning lights are switched on.
All the doors are unlocked.
The fuel supply to the engine is interrupted.
The interior light comes on (if the automatic operation of the interior light is
switched on - position ).
When there is no air bag deployment?
With minor frontal and side collisions, rear collision, overturning of the vehicle
or vehicle roll-over there is no airbag deployment.
Safety instructions

WARNING
General information
The seat belts and the airbag system can only offer proper protection
if the driver and passengers are seated properly » page 18.
The airbag unleashes enormous force when triggered, which can lead to
serious injuries or fatalities if the driver and passengers are not seated
properly. This applies in particular to children who are transported without
using a suitable child safety seat » page 30.
If there is a fault, have the airbag system checked immediately by a spe-
cialist garage. Otherwise, there is a risk of the airbag not being activated in
the event of an accident.
If the airbag has been deployed, the airbag system must then be replaced.
The surface of the steering wheel and the dashboard should only be
cleaned with a dry or slightly dampened cloth in the area of the front air-
bags.
WARNING
Information about the front airbags
It is important for the driver and front passenger to maintain a minimum
distance of 25 cm from the steering wheel or the control panel » Fig. 22 -
A
, If you do not observe this distance, the airbag cannot protect you - risk
to life! The front seats and the head restraints must always be correctly ad-
justed to match the body size of the occupant.
The front passenger airbag must be deactivated if using a rear-facing
child seat on the front passenger seat » page 26, Airbag deactivation. If
this is not done, there is a risk of the child suffering severe or even fatal in-
juries if the front passenger airbag is deployed.
