Sistema di protezione dal colpo di frusta

The Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) is designed to help reduce the risk of whiplashtype injuries. The system consists of energy absorbing backrests and seat cushions as well as specially designed head restraints in the front seats.

WHIPS is activated in the event of a rear-end collision and adapted to the angle and speed of the collision and to the characteristics of the colliding vehicle.

Quando il WHIPS si attiva, gli schienali dei sedili anteriori si spostano all'indietro e i cuscini dei sedili si abbassano, modificando la posizione di seduta del conducente e del passeggero anteriore. Questo movimento contribuisce ad assorbire parte delle forze che potrebbero causare un colpo di frusta.

Do not place any objects on the floor behind or under the front seats or on the rear seat that could prevent WHIPS from functioning correctly.

Posizione del sedile

For WHIPS to provide good protection, the driver and passenger must be seated correctly and the system's function must not be impeded in any way.

Regolare il sedile anteriore nella posizione di guida corretta prima di mettersi in marcia.

The driver and the front seat passenger should sit in the center of the seat with their heads as close as possible to the head restraints.
