An airbag is not designed to deploy in every type of crash.
Depending on the type of accident or impact, the front airbags
independently deploy thereby protecting the occupants. It is not
necessary that ALL the airbags deploy during an accident.
To minimise the risk of severe injury in the event of a crash, every
passenger must always wear their seat belt (see the chapter on
Seat Belts in this manual). The airbags inflate very quickly with great
force. Do not position any part of your body too close to airbag, you
or especially children could be seriously injured/killed by a deploying
airbag.

Your vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System
(Airbag) and lap/shoulder belts at both the driver and front
passenger seating positions. The indications of the system's
presence are the letters “AIRBAG” embossed on the airbag pad
cover in the steering wheel and the passenger's side front panel
pad above the glove box.
The SRS is designed to deploy the front airbag only when an impact
is sufficiently severe and when the impact angle is less than ± 30°
from the forward longitudinal axis of the vehicle.

Front airbag are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear impact
or rollover crashes. In addition, front airbag will not deploy in frontal
crashes which are below the prescribed deployment threshold
where risk of serious injuries is low.
Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag
and yourself.
