The airbag system is only functional when the ignition is switched on.
When triggered, the airbag is filled with gas and unfolds. The inflation of the
airbag is carried out in a fraction of a second.
Upon inflation of the airbag, smoke is released. This is not an indication 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. Important here is the hardness of the ob-
ject on which the vehicle impacts, the impact angle, the 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.
▶
Driver’s knee airbag.
The following airbags will be deployed in the event of a severe side
collision.
▶
Front side airbag.
▶
Rear side airbag.
▶
Head airbag.
When an airbag is deployed, the following events occur.
▶
The hazard warning lights are switched on.
▶
All 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 - switch ).
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.

wheel and the dashboard
WARNING
General information
■
The seat belts and the airbag system can only offer proper protection
if the driver and passengers are seated properly » page 19.
■
The airbag develops considerable forces when triggered, which can lead
to serious injuries or even death if the correct seating position or seated
position is not observed. This applies in particular to children who are trans-
ported 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.
■
The airbag system must be replaced if it has been deployed.
■
In the area of the front airbag and the knee airbag, the surface of the
steering wheel and the dashboard should be cleaned using only a dry cloth
or one that has been dampened with water.
WARNING
Information about front airbags
■
For the driver and passenger, it is important to maintain a distance of at
least 25 cm from the steering wheel or dashboard » Fig. 21 -
A
. If this dis-
tance is not maintained, the airbag system cannot protect you - hazard! The
front seats and the head restraints must always be correctly adjusted 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 27, 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.
