The front Air bag consists of an in-
stantly inflatable bag housed in a spe-
cial compartment located:
– in the centre of the steering wheel
on the driver’s side;
– in the dashboard on the passen-
ger’s side (larger bag).

The front airbag (driver and pas-
senger) is a device which protects the
occupants of the car during a head-on
collision of a medium-high degree by
placing a soft bag between the pas-
senger and the steering wheel or the
dashboard.
In a collision, an electronic control
unit processes the signals from a de-
celeration sensor and, where required,
inflates the airbag.
The bag inflates instantly and acts
as a soft protective barrier between
the front seat passengers and the
structures in front of them that could
cause injury. The bags deflates im-
mediately afterwards.
Please don’t apply stick-
ers or other objects to the
steering wheel, to the air-
bag cover on the passenger's side
or on the side roof lining to the up-
holstery on the roof side. Don’t
place objects on the dashboard
passenger’s side (such as mobile
phones) because they could tam-
per with the correct opening of the
passenger’s air-bag and than
cause serious injuries to the vehi-
cle occupants.
