42 Safety • Do not position a sun visor or similar item in the area that would be filled by the inflatable curtain. • To reduce the risk of head injuries in the event of a crash, the roof pillars and headlining incorporate cushioning material. Do not attach anything to the car's headlining, roof pillars or side panels as this could prevent the sideimpact protection from providing the intended protection. • Do not stack loads so high that they could encumber the inflatable curtain in the event of a crash. The inflatable curtains, which protect the head, are concealed along the lengths of the headlining (all the way from front to rear roof pillars). The inflatable curtains inflate at the same time as the side airbags in the front seats in case of a side-on impact. The inflatable curtains reduce the risk of head injuries to the occupants of the car's outer seats. The inflatable curtains deploys into the window area between the front and rear roof pillars. If the airbag system registers forces equivalent to a high-speed frontal crash (Stage II for the steering wheel and passenger airbags), the inflatable curtains will also be deployed. Inflatable curtains, Sport Sedan and SportCombi WARNING • Do not sit with your head resting against the side window. The inflatable curtain is designed to inflate between the window and the head. Resting the head against the window could prevent the inflatable curtain from providing the intended protection. • Hang only light clothes from the hooks on the rear seat courtesy handles. The items of clothing must not contain heavy or sharp objects. Do not use wire coat hangers. Inflated inflatable curtain, Sport Sedan
