DRIVER’S KNEES AIR BAG

ing cushion housed into a special com-
partment provided for the purpose under
the steering wheel at driver’s knees lev-
el, designed to give further protection in
the event of frontal crash.

SERIOUS DANGER: With
passenger’s air bag active,

never place child’s seats with the cra-
dle facing backwards since the air bag
activation could cause to the child se-
rious injuries, even mortal. In the case
of need, always deactivate the pas-
senger’s air bag when a child’s seat
is placed on the front seat.
The front passenger’s seat shall be ad-
justed in the most backward position

not compulsory by law, you are rec-
ommended to reactivate the air bag
immediately as soon as child trans-
port is no longer necessary.
