Airbags
Driver's airbag/front passenger's airbag
The front airbags are intended to
increase the prospects of protecting the
driver and front passenger against
injuries to the head or thorax. The front
airbags for the driver and front
passenger are activated:
! at the start of an accident with high
vehicle deceleration or acceleration in
the longitudinal direction,
! if there is the prospect of
supplementing the protective potential
of the seat belt,
! if the seat belt is in use,
! independently of other airbags in the
car being deployed,
! the airbags are not activated in the
event of a rollover, unless high vehicle
deceleration in the longitudinal
direction is detected.
Danger of injury!
A small amount of fine powder is
released for a short period when an
airbag is inflated. This fine powder is
entirely harmless; its smoky
appearance does not indicate a fire in
the car. The fine powder could provoke
temporary breathing difficulties in
people with asthma or respiratory
problems. To avoid these breathing
difficulties, such persons should
either leave the car provided it is safe
to do so, or open the windows to let
fresh air in.
Danger of injury!
In the interests of safety, smart
gmbh recommends that seat covers that
have been tested for cars built by smart
gmbh and have a designated tear seam
be used on cars with side airbags. A
side airbag could otherwise fail to
deploy correctly and achieve its
intended protective potential in the
event of an accident.
