Front airbags
Airbag 25 (see fig. Governing bodies) for the driver is installed in the steering wheel hub, airbag 14 for the front passenger - in the instrument panel. In this case, the steering wheel and instrument panel are labeled Airbag.
The airbags are operational when the ignition is on and will deploy in the event of a severe frontal impact.
Warning! If the seat belts are not fastened, the airbag can cause injury when deployed.
After the ignition is switched on, the control lamp 18 lights up in the instrument cluster for a few seconds (see fig. instrument cluster) – the system is controlled automatically.
If there is a problem with the system, then:
- the lamp does not light up when the ignition is turned on;
- the lamp does not go out a few seconds after the ignition is turned on;
- the lamp goes out and lights up again after the ignition is turned on;
- the lamp lights up with a constant or flashing light while driving.
In these cases, you must immediately contact a service station, as the airbags may not work in a frontal impact or, conversely, work at any time.

Attention! Do not tape, cover or modify in any way the steering wheel hub and the area on the instrument panel where the front passenger airbag is installed.
