airbag system gives the driver and the front
passenger additional protection for the head
and chest in the event of a severe frontal col-
lision. Always remain as far away as possible
from the front airbag

way, in the event of an accident, the front air-

bags can deploy fully when triggered, provid-
ing maximum protection.

The front airbag for the driver is located in
the steering wheel
