ger in the event of the side collision
(in addition to the protection provid-
ed by the seat belts).
The side air bags do not deploy
during all side impacts; they deploy
only during those side impacts that
pose hazard to the driver and the
passengers.
Warning
Do not allow the passengers to
lean out of the doors, put any
objects between the doors and
the passengers, if they are sitting
on the seats equipped with the
side air bags.
The side air bag is used in addi-
tion to the driver and passenger
seat belts and does not abandon
their need for use. Therefore,
always use seat belts during driv-
ing. The air bags are deployed
only under certain side impacts,
posing hazards to safety of peo-
ple sitting in the passenger com-
partment.
To ensure the best protection
against the side impact and to
prevent the injuries as a result of
the side air bag actuating, the
driver and the front seat passen-
ger should sit straight and be
properly fastened with the seat
belts. The driver should keep his
hands on the steering wheel in the
strict left and right direction posi-
tions. The passenger should keep
hands and arms on his/her hips.
Do not put any additional cov-
ers on the seats. The use of cov-
ers can reduce the system effi-
ciency down to zero.
Do not install any accessories
on the sides of the passenger
compartment or near the side air
bags.
Do not place any objects on top
of the air bag or between that and
yourself.
Do not place any objects (an
umbrella, a bag, etc.) between
the front door and the front seat.
Such objects can become danger-
ous and cause injury in the event
of the side air bag actuating.
To prevent the unexpected side
air bag deployment that can lead to
an injury, avoid impacts against the
side impact sensor, located in the
centre column, with the ignition on.
In case the seat or its uphol-
stery is damaged you should con-
tact any certified SSNE.
Any seat disassembling and
any seat design change and the
interior trim elements are not
allowed, excluding performance
of these operations by the quali-
fied personnel at the certified
SSNE.
