Control panel functioning of the electric drive of adjustment of provision of forward sitting

Adjustment of height of provision of a first line of a pillow of a seat is made at a way поднимания / lowerings of the left end of the handle of management (1) to correct height of provision of back edge of a pillow displace in the corresponding direction the right end of the handle (see an illustration). Handle (1) transfer to the right-to the left carries out shift of assembly of a seat in the longitudinal direction (see in the same place).

Adjustment of an inclination of a back of a seat is carried out by turn in the relevant party of the handle (2) (see in the same place).

The handle (3) (see in the same place) is used for adjustment of ergonomic parameters of a back of a seat taking into account specific features of a structure of a body of the person sitting in it.

Safety cushions

General information and functioning principle

Safety cushions are intended for additional protection of the driver and the forward passenger at a head-on collision of the car (and at the corresponding complete set also at lateral blows or a vehicle perevorachivaniye).

At excess by a face-to-face overload of a certain value the pillow instantly (for fractions of a second) fills space between the driver and a steering wheel, or between the passenger and the dashboard, limiting their longitudinal moving and reducing thereby risk of receiving the most dangerous injuries of the head and a breast. Lateral safety cushions (if those are provided) fill space between the driver/passenger and the corresponding door of the car at lateral blow from this board.

The design of forward safety cushions provided protection them from operation at insignificant face-to-face overloads, blows behind, or sideways.

At a strong head-on collision when the overload exceeds some put in memory of system value, there is an operation of a gas generator and a pillow is instantly filled with products developed by it, stopping movings of a body of the driver / the forward passenger in the longitudinal direction, then almost at once is blown off, releasing the driver review sector. At contact with a face of the person the fabric of a pillow can leave on graze skin.

Pillows are among disposable adaptations and for a reuse are not intended. After a gas vypuskaniye from a pillow its operation at repeated blow during the same incident becomes impossible.

Directional patterns of overloads at which there is an operation of safety cushions

The driver's safety cushion is built in in the central part of a steering wheel. The module of a passenger pillow it is placed the dashboard opposite to the right seat. Operation of both forward safety cushions occurs at the same time. Modules of lateral safety cushions (at the corresponding complete set) are built in in backs of forward seats from their outer side, are equipped with individual sensors of the directed overloads and work only at lateral blows (everyone from the corresponding board of the car) (see in the same place).

In an instrument guard the control lamp of forward safety cushions is built in, which should quickly (approximately for 6 seconds) to light up at each inclusion of ignition. After the mentioned 6 seconds the lamp should go out. At emergence in system of safety cushions of malfunctions the control lamp at first blinks within 5 minutes, then continues to burn continuously. In default operations of a control lamp at inclusion of ignition address for consultations to specialists of car-care center.

- Do not paste to the central part of a steering wheel any extraneous subjects in order to avoid receiving wounds of the person at pillow emission.
- Between a body of the passenger and a safety cushion there should be no extraneous subjects.
- Do not hold a wheel for spokes or for the central part.
- Do not leave on the forward panel of subjects which could provoke operation of a pillow or wound the passenger at her emission.
- Watch that the forward passenger during movement did not put a foot on the dashboard.
- Remember that children are more younger than 10 years should to be on a back seat.
- Never establish a children's seat on a place of the forward passenger if the car is equipped with a safety cushion of the passenger.

Precautionary measures which should be observed on the models equipped with lateral safety cushions:

- Do not forget to be fastened by seat belts.
- Do not paste and do not fasten to backs of forward seats any extraneous subjects, is it is fraught with injuries of a thorax or a hand at pillow operation.
- Between a body of the passenger and a safety cushion there should be no extraneous subjects.
