Fig. 73 On the left-hand side of the vehicle: deployment zones of side airbags (variant A). On the side of the front seat: location and deployment range of the side airbag (variant B)
The side airbags are located in the outer seat backrest cushions of the driver seat and front passenger seat B. Depending on the vehicle equipment level, side airbags may also be fitted for the outer rear seats. They are located between the door opening and the backrests. The locations of the airbags are marked with stickers with the word AIRBAG. The areas marked in red indicate the side airbag deployment zones.
During a side collision, the side airbags will be deployed on the vehicle's side of impact, thus reducing the risk of injury to the areas of the vehicle occupants' bodies facing the impact.
