Airbags (SRS) 01
Airbag (SRS) on the driver’s side
The car has an SRS airbag (Supplemental
Restraint System) in the steering wheel to
supplement the protection afforded by the
seatbelt. This airbag is fitted into the centre
of the steering wheel. The steering wheel is
marked SRS AIRBAG.
Passenger airbag (SRS)
The car has an SRS airbag (Supplemental
Restraint System) to supplement the protec-
tion afforded by the seatbelt. The passenger
airbag
1 is fitted behind a panel above the
glovebox. This panel is marked SRS
AIRBAG.
WARNING
The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seat-
belt is not used or is used incorrectly, this
may diminish the protection provided by the
airbag in the event of a collision.
1 Not all cars have a passenger airbag (SRS).
This can be deselected when the car is or-
dered.
WARNING
To minimise the risk of injury if the airbag
deploys, passengers must sit as upright as
possible with their feet on the floor and
backs against the backrest. Seatbelts must
be secured.
WARNING
Never place a child in a child seat or on a
booster cushion in the front seat if the air-
bag (SRS) is activated.
1
Never allow a child to stand or sit in front of
the front passenger seat. No one shorter
than 140 cm should sit in the front passen-
ger seat if the airbag (SRS) is activated.
Failure to follow the advice given above can
endanger the life of the child.

bag (SRS) see page 19.
