30 Safety Inflated airbag (driver's side). Inflation and deflation of airbag takes approx. 0.1 s The driver and passenger front airbags are triggered by violent front-end crashes. They are not activated by minor front-end impacts, if the car overturns or by rear- and side-impacts. The car is equipped as standard with a passenger airbag. Both front airbags inflated Note: Impact sensors react differently depending on whether or not the front safety belts on the driver's and passenger sides are used. Situations can therefore arise where only one of the airbags inflates. It is also possible for only the safety belt pretensioners to be activated and for the airbags to remain uninflated. If only Stage I is activated at the moment of impact, Stage II will automatically be activated later to neutralize the gas generator in the airbag.
