Technical information

AITS for front and rear seat passengers (triggered)
The AITS head airbag is a head protection system like the ITS. Its advantage, however, lies in its curtain-like area
protection.
The AITS prevents the head and limbs from swinging back and forth. This means that the neck experiences lower
shearing forces and there are fewer head injuries.
System features:

Extended covered area for the front and rear side windows

Protection from broken glass and penetrating objects

Optimised covered area, even for very large occupants

The head airbag stretches from the A-pillar to the C-pillar and covers the entire side area. It unfolds between the
occupants, side window glass and pillar trim panels.

The head airbag is stored folded-up in the roof frame area. It comprises the gas generator, two gas lances and the
airbag.
In the event of a side collision, the gas generator is activated. The resulting gas flows through the two gas lances into the
airbag. The simultaneous filling of the airbag at the front and rear ensures a more even filling.
The mounting of the head airbag at the A-pillar and C-pillar ensures that the head airbag is brought into position. As it
unfolds, the head airbag stretches between the side window glass, pillar trim panels and the occupants.
The closed system preserves the structural solidity and stability for several seconds.
