Do not use a child restraint on a seat
protected by an operational airbag in
front of it. Doing so presents a high
risk of death or serious injury to the
child in the event of an accident.
Do not fit a child restraint to the front
passenger seat if the SRS warning
light illuminates continuously with the
ignition on.
Note: The passenger airbag must be disabled
when a rearward facing child restraint is fitted
to the front passenger seat.
Airbag disable/enable is achieved via the
Vehicle Set-up menu on the Instrument panel.
See 40, INSTRUMENT PANEL MENU.
An airbag status indicator lamp, mounted on
the overhead control panel (as illustrated), will
display the operational status of the passenger
airbag.
If the airbag is disabled, the status indicator
will display PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF.Ifthe
airbag is enabled the status indicator will
display ON PASSENGER AIRBAG for the first
60 seconds of a journey or at a change of
status.
When checking the operational status
of the front passenger airbag, make
sure the ignition is switched on and
the warning lamp bulb check period of
8 seconds has elapsed.
As soon as the child seat is removed
from the front passenger seat, the
airbag must be turned on. Failure to
do so will put any front seat
passengers at greater risk of death or
serious injury in the event of an
accident.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front passenger and driver airbags are able
to deploy in 2 stages, depending on the
severity of the frontal impact. In a severe
impact, the airbags inflate fully to stage 2
giving maximum protection. In a lesser impact,
full inflation may not be required, so the
airbags will only inflate to stage 1. The knee
bolster airbag will always fully inflate.
SIDE AIRBAGS
These are designed to protect the thorax region
of the torso and will deploy only in the event of
a side impact and then, only on the side of the
impact.
CURTAIN AIRBAGS
The curtain airbags are deployed in side impact
and rollover events, providing greater
protection from serious head injuries.
AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT EFFECTS
When an airbag inflates, a fine
powder is released. This is normal
and not an indication of a malfunction.
The powder may cause irritation to the
skin and should be thoroughly flushed
from eyes and any cuts or abrasions. If
breathing difficulty is experienced,
leave the vehicle if possible or open
the windows or doors to allow fresh air
in.
