To manually deactivate the passenger’s

front and side chest/pelvis airbags (for ver-

sions/markets where provided), refer to para-

graphs “Digital display” and “Multifunction dis-

play” in the section “Dashboard and controls”.

WARNING

SIDE AIRBAGS

The car is fitted with front side airbags for driver and pas-

senger (for versions/markets where provided) for pro-

tecting the chest and pelvis, and window bags (for ver-

sions/markets where provided) for protecting the heads

of front and rear occupants.

Side airbags (for versions/markets where provided) pro-

tect car occupants from side-on crashes of medium/high

severity by placing the bag between the occupant and the

internal parts of the side structure of the car. Non-acti-

vation of side bags in other types of collisions (head-on

collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc...) is not an indica-

tion of system malfunction. In the event of a side-on crash,

an electronic control unit triggers the inflation of the bag

if required. The cushion immediately inflates, placing it-

self between the occupant’s body and structures that could

cause injuries, the cushion deflates Immediately afterwards.

Side bags (for versions/markets where provided) are not

a replacement for, but rather a complement to, the seat

belts, which should be worn at all times as specified by law

in Europe and most non-European countries.
