The airbag is a very safe passive safety system. It prevents the occupants from directly impacting the various elements of the vehicle. Currently, frontal airbags for the driver and passenger, side airbags, roof or curtain airbags, knee airbags, etc. are used.
To provide effective protection and avoid adverse effects, the following should be taken into account:
- It is a complement to the seatbelt, so they must always be used together.
- It is advisable for the airbag to be at an approximate distance of 25 cm from the body and never less than 10 cm.
- We should avoid placing objects near the airbag or resting legs on the dashboard. When the airbag deploys, very serious injuries could occur.
- When using a rearward-facing child restraint device in a seat with an airbag, we must deactivate it.
