Seats, restraints

Airbag system

The airbag system consists of a

number of individual systems

depending on the scope of

equipment.
When triggered the airbags inflate

within milliseconds. They also deflate

so quickly that it is often unnoticeable

during the collision.

9 Warning

If handled improperly the airbag

systems can be triggered in an

explosive manner.

Note

The airbag systems and belt

pretensioner control electronics are

located in the centre console area.

Do not put any magnetic objects in

this area.
Do not stick anything on the airbag

covers and do not cover them with

other materials.
Each airbag is triggered only once.

Have deployed airbags replaced by

a workshop. Furthermore, it might be

necessary to have the steering

wheel, the instrument panel, parts of

the panelling, the door seals,

handles and the seats replaced.
Do not make any modifications to

the airbag system as this will

invalidate the vehicle type approval.

When the airbags inflate, escaping

hot gases may cause burns.

Beyond the warning required by

ECE R94.02, for safety reasons a

forward-facing child restraint system

must only be used subject to the

instructions and restrictions in the

table 3 63.

Seats, restraints

57

9 Danger

Do not use a child restraint system

on the passenger seat with active

front airbag.

The airbag label is located on both

sides of the front passenger sun visor.
Airbag deactivation 3 58.

Front airbag system

The front airbag system consists of

one airbag in the steering wheel and

one in the instrument panel on the

front passenger side. These can be

identified by the word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system is triggered in

the event of a front-end impact of a

certain severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the upper body and head of

the front seat occupants

considerably.

9 Warning

Optimum protection is only

provided when the seat is in the

proper position.
Seat position 3 38.
Keep the area in which the airbag

inflates clear of obstructions.

Fit the seat belt correctly and

engage securely. Only then is the

airbag able to protect.

Side airbag system

The side airbag system consists of an

airbag in each front seat backrest.

This can be identified by the word

AIRBAG.
The side airbag system is triggered in

the event of a side impact of a certain

severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

58

Seats, restraints

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the upper body and pelvis in

the event of a side-on collision

considerably.

9 Warning

Keep the area in which the airbag

inflates clear of obstructions.

Note

Only use protective seat covers that

have been approved for the vehicle.

Be careful not to cover the airbags.

Curtain airbag system

The curtain airbag system consists of

an airbag in the roof frame on each

side. This can be identified by the

word AIRBAG on the roof pillars.
The curtain airbag system is triggered

in the event of a side-on impact of a

certain severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the head in the event of a

side-on impact considerably.
The curtain airbag system does not

protect passengers on the third seat

row.

9

Warning

Keep the area in which the airbag

inflates clear of obstructions.
The hooks on the handles in the

roof frame are only suitable for

hanging up light articles of

clothing, without coat hangers. Do

not keep any items in these

clothes.

Airbag deactivation

The front passenger airbag system

has to be deactivated if a child

restraint system is to be fitted on this

seat. The side airbag and curtain

airbag systems, the belt

pretensioners and all driver airbag

systems will remain active.

Seats, restraints

59

The front passenger airbag system

can be deactivated via a key-

operated switch on the passenger

side of the instrument panel.

Use the ignition key to choose the

position:
OFF* : front passenger airbag is

deactivated and will not

inflate in the event of a

collision. Control indicator

OFF* illuminates

continuously in the centre

console. A child restraint

system can be installed in

accordance with the chart

Child restraint installation

locations 3 63. No adult

person is allowed to occupy

the front passenger seat

ONV : front passenger airbag is

active. A child restraint

system must not be

installed

9 Danger

Risk of fatal injury for a child using

a child restraint system on a seat

with activated front passenger

airbag.
Risk of fatal injury for an adult

person on a seat with deactivated

front passenger airbag.

If the control indicator ONV

illuminates for approx. 60 seconds

after the ignition is switched on, the

front passenger airbag system will

inflate in the event of a collision.
If both control indicators are

illuminated at the same time, there is

a system failure. The status of the

system is not discernible, therefore

no person is allowed to occupy the

front passenger seat. Contact a

workshop immediately.
Change status only when the vehicle

is stopped with the ignition off.
Status remains until the next change.

9 Danger

If using a rear-facing child restraint

system on the front passenger

seat, the airbag system for the

36.

When a child restraint system is being

used, pay attention to the following

usage and installation instructions

and also those supplied with the child

restraint system.
Always comply with local or national

regulations. In some countries, the

use of child restraint systems is

forbidden on certain seats.
Child restraint systems can be

fastened with:

● Three-point seat belt
● ISOFIX brackets
● Top-tether

Three-point seat belt

Child restraint systems can be

fastened by using a three-point seat

belt. Depending on the size of the

used child restraint systems, up to

two child restraint systems can be

attached to the outboard seats in the

second row and on the seats in the

third row. 3 63.

Seats, restraints

61

ISOFIX brackets

Fasten vehicle-approved ISOFIX

child restraint systems to the ISOFIX

mounting brackets. Specific vehicle

ISOFIX child restraint system

positions are marked in the ISOFIX

table 3 63.
ISOFIX mounting brackets are

indicated by a label on the backrest.

When using ISOFIX fastened child

restraint systems on the second seat

row, we recommend to adjust the

accordant outer seat in third notch

from rear end position, regarding to

base seats. Lounge seat, if equipped,

must be in normal position 3 44.
An i-Size child restraint system is an

universal ISOFIX child restraint

system according UN Regulation No.

129.
All i-Size child restraint systems can

be used on any vehicle seat suitable

for i-Size, i-Size table 3 63.
Either a Top-tether strap or a support

leg must be used in addition to the

ISOFIX mounting brackets.

i-Size child seats and vehicle seats

with i-Size approval are marked with

i-Size symbol, see illustration.

Top-tether fastening eyes

Top-tether fastening eyes are marked

with the symbol : for a child seat.

62

Seats, restraints

In addition to the ISOFIX mounting

brackets, fasten the Top-tether strap

to the Top-tether fastening eyes. The

strap must run between the two guide

rods of the head restraint.
ISOFIX child restraint systems of

universal category positions are

marked in the table by IUF 3 63.

Selecting the right system

The rear seats are the most

convenient location to fasten a child

restraint system.
Children should travel facing

rearwards in the vehicle as long as

possible. This makes sure that the

child's backbone, which is still very

weak, is under less strain in the event

of an accident.
Suitable are child restraint systems

that comply with valid UN ECE

regulations. Check local laws and

regulations for mandatory use of child

restraint systems.
The following child restraints are

recommended for the following

weight classes:
Maxi Cosi Cabriofix for children up to

13 kg for group 0, group 0+ and Duo

Plus for children from 13 kg to 18 kg

in group I.
Ensure that the child restraint system

to be installed is compatible with the

vehicle type.
Ensure that the mounting location of

the child restraint system within the

vehicle is correct, see following

tables.
Allow children to enter and exit the

vehicle only on the side facing away

from the traffic.
When the child restraint system is not

in use, secure the seat with a seat belt

or remove it from the vehicle.

Note

Do not affix anything on the child

restraint systems and do not cover

them with any other materials.
A child restraint system which has

been subjected to stress in an

accident must be replaced.
