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.

There is also a warning label on the side of the instrument panel, visible when the front passenger door is open.

The front airbag system is triggered in the event of an accident of a certain severity in the depicted area. The ignition must be on.

The forward movement of the front seat occupants is decelerated, thereby considerably reducing the risk of injury to the upper body and head.
Warning:Optimum protection is only provided when the seat is in the proper position. Keep the area in which the airbag inflates clear of obstructions.
Fit the seat belt correctly and engage securely. Only then the airbag is able to protect.
