HYDRAULIC BRAKE
ASSIST (assistance
during emergency
braking)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The HBA system is an integral part
of the ESC system and is designed
to improve the vehicle’s braking
capacity during emergency braking.
The system detects emergency braking
by monitoring the speed and force with
which the brake pedal is pressed, and
consequently applies the optimal brake
pressure. This can reduce the braking
distance: the HBA system therefore
completes the ABS.
Maximum assistance of the HBA
system is obtained pressing the
brake pedal very quickly; in addition,
the brake pedal should be pressed
continuously during braking, avoiding
intermittent presses, to obtain benefits
from the system. Do not reduce
pressure on the brake pedal until
braking is no longer necessary.
The HBA system is deactivated when
the brake pedal is released.
65) 66) 67)
57)
The ESC system cannot overrule
the natural laws of physics, and can’t
increase the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
58)
The ESC system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on corners, driving on
low-grip surfaces or aquaplaning.
59)
The capability of the ESC system
must never be tested irresponsibly
and dangerously, in such a way as to
compromise personal safety and the
safety of others.
60)
For the correct operation of the ESC
and ASR systems it is vital that the tyres
are the same make and the same type on
all the wheels, in perfect condition and,
above all, the recommended type and size.
61)
The ASR cannot overrule the natural
laws of physics, and cannot increase the
grip available according to the condition of
the road.
62)
The ASR system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on corners, driving on
low-grip surfaces or aquaplaning.
63)
The capability of the ASR must never
be tested irresponsibly and dangerously,
in such a way as to compromise personal
safety and the safety of others.
64)
Do not take unnecessary risks, even if
your vehicle is fitted with this system. Your
driving style must always be suited to the
road conditions, visibility and traffic. The
driver is always responsible for road safety.
65)
The HBA system cannot overrule
the natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
66)
The HBA system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on corners, driving on
low-grip surfaces or aquaplaning.
67)
The capability of the HBA must never
be tested irresponsibly and dangerously,
in such a way as to compromise personal
safety and the safety of others.
iTPMS (indirect
Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System iTPMS can monitor the tyre
inflation status through the wheel
speed sensors. The system warns the
driver if one or more tyres are flat by
switching on the warning light on
the instrument panel and a warning
message on the display dedicated with
an acoustic signal.
It is advisable to check the pressure
of all four tyres. This indication is
displayed also when turning the engine
off and on until the “Reset” procedure
is carried out.
“Reset” procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial "self-
learning" phase (with length depending
on the driving style and road
conditions: optimal conditions being
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
108
driving on a straight road at 80 km/h for
at least 20 minutes) which starts when
the “Reset” procedure is carried out.
The “Reset” procedure must be carried
out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
when the space-saver wheel is fitted.
Before carrying out the “Reset”
procedure, inflate the tyres to the rated
pressure values specified in the inflation
pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph
in the "Technical specifications"
chapter).
If the Reset procedure is not carried
out, in all above cases, the
warning
light may give false indications on one
or more tyres.
To carry out the “Reset” procedure,
with the vehicle stopped and the
ignition device at MAR, use the Setup
Menu as follows:
briefly press the
button: the
display will show "Reset";
press
button or
to select
(“Yes” or “No”);
briefly press the
button: the
display will show "Confirm";
press
button or
to select
("Yes" to reset or "No" to exit the video
page);
hold the
button down again to
return to the standard screen or to the
main menu according to where you are
in the menu.
After the “Reset” the display will show
the "Reset saved" message, indicating
that the "self-learning" has been
started.
Operating conditions
The system is active for speeds above
15 km/h. In a few situations such as
sporty driving, particular conditions
of the road surface (e.g. icy, snowy,
unsurfaced roads...) the signalling may
be delayed or partial in detecting the
contemporary deflation of more than
one tyre. Under special conditions
(e.g. vehicle loaded asymmetrically on
one side, towing a trailer, damaged
or worn tyre, fitting the space-saver
wheel, use of the "Fix&Go Automatic"
kit, fitting snow chains, fitting different
tyres on the axles) the system may
give false indications or be temporarily
deactivated.
If the system is temporarily deactivated,
the warning light
flashes for about
75 seconds and then is continuously
on; at the same time, the display
shows a dedicated message. This
warning is displayed also after the
engine has been switched off and
then on again if the correct operating
conditions are not restored.
68) 69) 70) 71) 72) 73)
68)
If the system signals a pressure drop
on one or more tyres, it is recommended
to always check the pressure on all tyres.
69)
The iTPMS does not relieve the driver
from the obligation to check the tyre
pressure every month; the system does
not replace servicing or operate as a safety
system.
70)
Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres cold. Should it become necessary for
whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even
though it is higher than the prescribed
value, but repeat the check when tyres are
cold.
71)
The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden
tyre pressure drops (for example when a
tyre bursts). In this case, stop the vehicle,
braking with caution and avoiding abrupt
steering.
72)
The system only warns that the tyre
pressure is low: it is not able to inflate
them.
73)
Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel
consumption, reduces the tread duration
and may affect the capacity to drive safely.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
109
TRACTION PLUS
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Traction Plus is a driving aid, useful
for setting off in poor grip conditions
(snow, ice, mud, etc.) which allows the
drive force to be distributed in the best
way over the front axle when one wheel
is slipping.
Traction Plus acts by braking the
wheels with poor grip (or those
slipping more than the others), thereby
transferring the drive force to those
which have greater grip on the ground.
This function can be activated manually
by pressing button T+ on the side
control panel fig. 136 and works at
speeds under 50 km/h. Over this
speed, it is automatically deactivated
(the LED on the button is still on) and it
is reactivated again when the speed is
below 50 km/h.
136
F0T0506
Traction Plus operation
The system is deactivated when
starting. To activate the "Traction Plus"
system, press the button (T+ fig. 136):
the LED on the button switches on.
The activation of the Traction Plus
system involves the following functions
being switched on:
inhibition of the ASR function, in
order to fully exploit the engine torque;
the differential locking effect on
the front axle, through the braking
system, to improve traction on irregular
grounds.
If the "Traction Plus" system is faulty,
the "general failure" instrument panel
warning light
comes on steady.
OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety
equipment of the vehicle comprise the
following protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
front, side airbag (for
versions/markets, where provided).
Read the information given the
following pages with the utmost care.
It is of fundamental importance that
the protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
For the description of the head restraint
adjustment see the "Head restraints"
paragraph in the "Knowing your
vehicle" chapter.

SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
All the seats in the vehicle are equipped
with seat belts with three anchoring
points and a retractor. The reel
mechanism operates locking the belt in
the event of sharp braking or strong
deceleration due to an impact.
This allows the belt strap to slide
freely and to adapt to the body of the
occupant.
In the event of an accident, the belt
will lock to reduce the risk of impact
inside the passenger compartment
or of being projected outside the
vehicle. The driver is responsible for
respecting, and ensuring that all the
other occupants of the vehicle also
respect, the local laws in force in
relation to the use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
The seat belt should be worn keeping
the chest straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold fastening
tongue (A) fig. 137 and insert it into
buckle (B), until it clicks into place.
137
F0T0147
If the seat belt jams during removal, let
it rewind for a short stretch, then pull it
out again without jerking.
Press button (C) to release the seat
belt. Guide the safety belt while it is
rewinding to prevent it from twisting.
74)
The retractor may lock up when the
vehicle is parked on a steep slope:
this is perfectly normal. Furthermore,
the reel mechanism locks the belt if
it is pulled sharply or in the event of
sudden braking, collisions and high-
speed bends.
75)
The rear seat belts (for
versions/markets where provided)
must be worn as shown in fig. 138 or
fig. 140.

WARNING The backrest is correctly
secured when the red band on the
backrest folding handles (A) fig. 139
disappears. The red band indicates
that the backrest is not secured.
WARNING After putting the rear seats
(for versions/markets, where provided)
back to their normal operating position,
re-position the seat belt so that it is
immediately ready for the next use.
76)
74)
Never press button (C) fig. 137 when
travelling.
75)
Remember that in the event of a
violent impact the rear seat passengers
not wearing seat belts are exposed to
a very serious risk and also represent
a serious danger for the front seat
occupants.
76)
Make sure the backrest is properly
secured at both sides (”red bands” not
visible) to prevent it moving forward in the
event of sharp braking, causing injuries to
passengers.
SBR SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It consists of an acoustic warning
which, switching on the
warning
lights in the trim located on the internal
rear view mirror, warns passengers in
the front and rear seats that their seat
belts are not fastened.
141
F0T0989
For long-term deactivation of the SBR
system, contact a Fiat Dealership.
The SBR system can be reactivated at
any time through the Setup Menu only
(see the "Multifunction display" chapter
in the “Knowing your vehicle” section).
The warning lights may be red or green
and operate as:
1 = front left seat (driver status for
left-hand drive versions)
2 = rear left seat (passenger) (for
versions/markets, where provided);
3 = middle rear seat (passenger) (for
versions/markets, where provided);
4 = rear right seat (passenger) (for
versions/markets, where provided);
5 = front right seat (passenger status
for left-hand drive versions).
NOTE On versions equipped with sport
front seats, the indication of passenger
side seat belt fastened (warning light 1
for right-hand drive versions or warning
light 5 for left-hand drive versions) will
never be displayed.
FRONT SEATS (warning
light 1 = driver and 5 =
passenger)
Driver
If the driver is the only occupant of
the vehicle and the seat belt is not
fastened, when 20 km/h is exceeded
or when travelling at a speed from 10
to 20 km/h for longer than 5 seconds,
a buzzer sequence will be started
(front seats) consisting of a tone for 6
seconds followed by a 90 second
beep. The warning light will blink.
The warning lights will stay on
constantly at the end of the cycle until
the engine is stopped. The acoustic
warning will be interrupted immediately
when the driver’s seat belt is fastened
and the warning light will turn green.
The reminder cycle (acoustic and
visual) will be repeated as described
above and the red warning light will
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
112
flash if the seat belt is unfastened again
while travelling.
Passenger
A similar solution applies for the front
passenger, with the difference that
the warning light turns green and the
warning is interrupted also when the
passenger leaves the vehicle.
It both front seat belts are unfastened
while the vehicle is travelling a few
seconds apart, the acoustic indication
will refer to the most recent event and
the two warning lights will proceed with
the visual indication independently.
REAR SEATS (warning
light 2, 3 and 4)
The reminder cycle is run only when
any seat belt is unfastened (red
blinking).
In this condition, the warning light
for the seat belt which has been
unfastened will start flashing red for
approximately 30 seconds. An acoustic
signal is also emitted.
The visual indication (blinking red) will
start and end independently for each
warning light if several seat belts are
unfastened. The
warning light will become green when
the relevant seat belt is fastened again.
After about 30 seconds from the last
indication, the warning lights for rear
seats will switch off, irrespective of the
belt conditions (red or green).
WARNING All warning lights will remain
off if all the seat belts (front and rear)
are already fastened when the ignition
key it turned to MAR.
WARNING All the warning lights will
come on when at least one belt
changes from fastened to unfastened
status or vice versa.
PRE-TENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency of
the front seat belts, the vehicle is fitted
with pretensioners. These devices, in
the event of a violent frontal collision
or side collision, rewind the seat belts
a few centimetres. In this way, they
ensure that the belts fit tightly to the
wearer before the restraining action
begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners
have been activated when the belt
withdraws toward the retractor.
WARNING To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the chest and pelvis. A slight
discharge of smoke may be produced
during the activation of the pretensioner
which is not harmful and does not
involve any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication.
Any changes to its original conditions
will invalidate its efficiency. If, due to
unusual natural events (floods, sea
storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and mud, it must
absolutely be replaced.
77) 78)
15)
LOAD LIMITERS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To increase occupant safety in an
accident, the front seat belt reels on
driver side and passenger side (for
versions/markets, where provided)
contain a device which controls the
force acting on the chest and shoulders
during the restraining action of the belts
in the event of a frontal collision.
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other
occupants of the vehicle also respect,
the local laws in force in relation to the
use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
113
Seat belts are also to be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in
the case of impact is greatly reduced
for them and the unborn child if they
are wearing a seat belt. Pregnant
women must position the lower part of
the belt very low down so that it passes
over the pelvis and under the abdomen
(see fig. 142).
While pregnancy progresses, the driver
must adjust both the seat and the
steering wheel to ensure full control
of the vehicle (pedals and steering
wheel must be easily accessible). The
maximum clearance should be kept
between the abdomen and the steering
wheel.
142
F0T0003
WARNING The seat belt strap must
not be twisted. The upper part must
pass over the shoulder and cross
the chest diagonally. The lower part
must adhere to the pelvis (as shown
in fig. 143) rather than the abdomen
of the passenger. Do not use devices
(clips, etc.) to hold the seat belt away
from your body.
79) 80)
143
F0T0004
WARNING Each seat belt must be
used by only one person. Never travel
with a child sitting on the passenger's
lap and a single belt to protect them
both fig. 144. In general, do not place
any objects between the person and
the belt.
144
F0T0005
SEAT BELTS
MAINTENANCE
For keeping the seat belts in efficient
conditions, carefully observe the
following warnings:
always use the seat belt with the
strap well stretched and not twisted;
make sure that it is free to run without
obstructions;
check seat belt operation as follows:
attach the seat belt and pull it hard;
replace the seat belt after an
accident of a certain severity even if
it does not appear to be damaged.
Always replace the seat belt if the
pretensioners were deployed;
prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
114
77)
The pretensioner may be used only
once. After it is triggered, have it replaced
at a Fiat Dealership.
78)
For maximum safety, keep the seat
backrest upright, lean back into it and
make sure the seat belt fits closely across
your chest and pelvis. Always fasten the
seat belts on both the front and the rear
seats! Travelling without wearing seat belts
will increase the risk of serious injury or
even death in the event of a crash.
79)
Removing or tampering with seat
belt and pretensioner components is
strictly prohibited. Any intervention on
these components must be performed
by qualified and authorised technicians.
Always go to a Fiat Dealership.
80)
If the seat belt has been subjected to
a high level of stress, for example after an
accident, it must be completely replaced
together with the anchorages, anchorage
fixing screws and pretensioner. In fact,
even if the seat belt has no visible defects,
it could have lost its resilience.
15)
Operations which lead to knocks,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100
°
C
for a maximum of 6 hours) in the area
around the pretensioners may cause
damage or trigger them. These devices
are not affected by vibrations caused by
irregularities of the road surface or low
obstacles such as kerbs, etc. Contact a
Fiat Dealership for any assistance.
CARRYING
CHILDREN SAFELY
For optimal protection in the event
of an impact, all occupants must be
seated and wearing adequate restraint
systems, including newborn and other
children!
This prescription is compulsory in all
EC countries according to EC Directive
2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of 1.50
metres and up to 12 years must be
protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear
seats. Statistics on accidents indicate
that the rear seats offer greater safety
for children.
Compared with an adult, a child's head
is larger and heavier in proportion to
their body and the child's muscular
and bone structures are not fully
developed. Therefore, correct restraint
systems other than adult seat belts
are necessary to reduce as much as
possible the risk of injuries in the event
of an accident, braking or a sudden
manoeuvre.
Children must be seated safely
and comfortably. As far as the
characteristics of the child seats used
allow, you are advised to keep children
in rear facing child seats for as long
as possible (at least until 3
–
4 years
old), since this is the most protected
position in the event of a collision.
It is recommended to always choose
the restraint system most suitable for
the child; for this reason always refer to
the Owner Handbook provided with the
child restraint system, to be sure that it
is of the right type for the children it is
intended for.
In Europe the characteristics of child
restraint systems are ruled by the
regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
116
All restraint devices must bear the type-
approval data, together with the control
mark, on a label solidly fixed to the
child restraint system which must never
be removed.
Lineaccessori Fiat offers child restraint
systems for each weight group. These
devices are recommended, having
been specifically designed for Fiat cars.
WARNING For correct installation
on the car, some universal child
restraint systems require an accessory
(base) sold separately by the restraint
system's producer. Therefore, FCA
advises customers to check that their
chosen child restraint system can be
installed on their vehicle by performing
a trial installation, on the vendor's
premises, before purchase.

GROUP 0 and 0+
Infants up to 13 kg must be carried
with a rearward facing child restraint
system of the type shown in fig. 145
which, supporting the head, does not
induce stress on the neck in the event
of sudden decelerations.
The child restraint system is restrained
by the seat belts of the vehicle, as
shown in fig. 145 and it must restrain
the child in turn with its own belts.

Children weighing from 9 to 18 kg may
be transported in forward facing child
restraint systems fig. 146.
146
F0T0007
GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg may use
the seat belts of the vehicle directly
fig. 147.
In this case, the child restraint system
is used to position the child correctly
with respect to the seat belts so that
the diagonal belt section crosses the
child’s chest and not the neck, and the
lower part is snug on the pelvis not the
abdomen.
147
F0T0008
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
117
GROUP 3
For children between 22 and 36 kg,
there are dedicated restraint systems
that allow the seat belt to be worn
correctly.
The fig. 148 shows the correct child
positioning on the rear seat.
148
F0T0009
Children over 1.50 m in height can
wear seat belts like adults.
81)
SERIOUS DANGER: When an active
passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install
rear facing child restraint systems on the
front seat. Deployment of the airbag in
an accident could cause fatal injuries to
the child regardless of the severity of the
impact. It is advisable to always carry
children in a child restraint system on the
rear seat, which is the most protected
position in the event of a collision.
82)
Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a
rearward facing child restraint system, the
passenger side front airbag and side bag
(for versions/markets, where provided)
must be deactivated through the Setup
menu. Deactivation should be verified by
checking whether the
warning light
is switched on in the central dashboard.
Move the passenger's seat as far back
as possible to avoid contact between the
child seat and the dashboard.
83)
On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that
it is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if
a rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger side sun visor (see the
"Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) -
Airbag" paragraph).
84)
Do not move the front or rear seat if
a child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system.
85)
Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided by
the Manufacturer.
86)
When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the event of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
87)
After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove the
child restraint system before making any
adjustment.
88)
Always make sure that the diagonal
section of the seat belt does not pass
under the arms or behind the back of the
child. In the event of an accident the seat
belt will not be able to secure the child,
with the risk of injury, including fatal injury.
Therefore the child must always wear the
seat belt correctly.
89)
The diagrams are indicative and
provided for assembly purposes only. Fit
the child restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.

ISOFIX CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
90) 91)
On some versions the external rear
seats are equipped with ISOFIX
attachments, for fitting child restraint
systems quickly, simply and safely.
The ISOFIX system lets you install
the ISOFIX child restraining system
without using the vehicle seat belts but
connecting them directly to the vehicle
seat with three anchors in the vehicle.

F0T0284
Remember that, in the case of
Universal Isofix child seats, you can use
all seats bearing the marking ECE R44
(R44/03 or later updates) "Universal
Isofix".
The Universal Isofix “Duo Plus” child
restraint system is available from
Lineaccessori MOPAR.
For any further details on
installation/use, refer to the instruction
manual for the child restraint system.
90)
Fit the child restraint system only
when the vehicle is stationary. The child
restraint system is correctly fixed to the
brackets when you hear the click. Follow
the instructions for positioning, fitting and
removing which the child restraint system
manufacturer must supply together with
the restraint system. If a Universal/ISOFIX
child restraint system is not fixed to all
three anchorages, it will not be able to
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SAFETY
122
Below is a summary of
the main safety rules
to be followed when
carrying children
Main recommendations to carry
children safely:
152
F0T0505
Install the child restraint systems
on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
Keep children in rearward facing
child restraint systems for as long as
possible, until 3
–
4 years old if possible.
If the passenger's front airbag
is deactivated always check the
warning light always lighted on
the central dashboard fig. 152 to
make sure that it has actually been
deactivated.
Carefully follow the instructions
supplied with the child restraint system.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
along with the other papers and this
handbook. Do not use second-hand
child restraint systems without
instructions.
Only one child is to be strapped
into each restraint system; never carry
two children using one child restraint
system.
Always check that the seat belts do
not rest on the child’s neck.
Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it.
While travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
Never allow a child to put the belt's
diagonal section under an arm or
behind their back.
Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No-one can hold a
child in the case of a crash.
If the vehicle has been involved in
a road accident, replace the child
restraint system with a new one. In
addition, and depending on the type of
child restraint system installed, replace
the Isofix anchorages or the seat belt
with which the child restraint system
was connected.
The rear head restraint can be
removed if needed to install a child
restraint system. The headrest must
always be fitted in the vehicle if the
seat is used by an adult passenger or
a child sitting in a restraint system
without a backrest.
SUPPLEMENTARY
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(SRS) - AIRBAG
The vehicle may be equipped with:
front driver airbag;
passenger front airbag;
passenger chest-pelvis side bag.
The location of the airbags on the
vehicle is marked by the word
"AIRBAG" in the middle of the steering
wheel, on the dashboard, on the side
lining or on a label placed next to the
airbag deployment area.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The vehicle is fitted with front
airbags for driver and passenger (for
versions/markets, where provided).
The front driver/passenger airbags (for
versions/markets, where provided) are
designed to protect the front-seat
occupants in the event of frontal
impacts of medium-high severity, by
placing the bag between the occupant
and the steering wheel or dashboard.
Therefore, non-activation in other
types of collisions (side collisions, rear
shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is not a system
malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make
the bag inflate in the event of a frontal
impact.
