belts regardless of whether your vehicle is

equipped with air bags or not.

It is important for your safety and that of your

passenger to have deployed air bags replaced

and to have any malfunctioning air bags

repaired. This will help to make sure the air

bags will continue to provide supplemental

crash protection for occupants.

Front air bags

Observe "Important safety notes"

(Y page 42).

The front air bags increase protection for the

driver's and front-passenger's head and

chest.

Knee bag

Driver's air bag : deploys in front of the

steering wheel; front-passenger air bag ;

deploys in front of and above the glove box.

They are deployed:

R

in the event of certain frontal impacts

R

if the system determines that air bag

deployment can offer additional protection

to that provided by the seat belt

R

if the seat belt is fastened

R

independently of other air bags in the

vehicle

If the vehicle overturns, the front air bags are

generally not deployed unless the system

detects high vehicle deceleration in a

longitudinal direction.

Your vehicle has adaptive, two-stage front air

bags. In the event of a collision, the air bag

control unit evaluates the vehicle

deceleration. When the first deployment

threshold is reached, the front air bag is filled

with enough propellant gas to reduce the risk

of injuries. The front air bag is fully deployed

if a second deployment threshold is exceeded

within a few milliseconds.

The deployment of the front-passenger air

bag is also influenced by the weight category

of the front passenger, which is determined

by the Occupant Classification System (OCS)

(Y page 46).

The lighter the passenger side occupant, the

higher the vehicle deceleration rate required

(predicted at the start of the impact) for

second stage inflation of the front-passenger

front air bag. In the second stage, the front

air bags are inflated with the maximum

amount of propellant gas available.

The front air bags will not deploy in impacts

with vehicle deceleration or acceleration

rates which do not exceed the system’s

preset deployment thresholds for vehicle

deceleration or acceleration. You will then be

protected by the seat belt.

The front-passenger air bag will only deploy

if:

R

the system, based on the OCS weight

sensor readings, detects that the front-

passenger seat is occupied.

R

the 42 indicator lamp in the

center console is not lit, (Y page 46).

R

the impact exceeds a preset deployment

threshold.
