When the driver and front passenger airbags

Fig. 19

In conjunction with the seat belts, the front
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.

Their special design allows the controlled es-
cape of the propellant gas when an occu-
pant puts pressure on the bag. Thus, the
head and chest are protected by the airbag.
After the collision, the airbag deflates suffi-
ciently to allow visibility.

bag system provides additional protection for

collision

page 63, The whys and

wherefores of seat belts

In a side collision, the side airbags reduce the
risk of injury to passengers to the areas of the
body facing the impact. In addition to the nor-
mal protection from the front seat belts, pas-
sengers are also held fast in the event of a
side collision, and this is how these airbags
provide maximum protection.
