Protection against fires

Seat belts with mechanically operated pyrotechnic pre-tensioners are fitted as standard. These devices allow a faster and more effective response in the first moments following an impact.

Pre-tensioners have an operating range which ensure operation after a head on impact against a barrier at 0° at a speed equal to or more than 24 kph and do enter into operation at a speed equal to or less than 15 kph.

It is possible to have a drivers Air Bag (volume 45 litres) or a passenger Air Bag (positioned on the dash-board - volume 90 litres) fitted as optional extras, operated by a centralized electronic control unit with a single operating level.

Air Bags have an operating range whereby for a head on impact against a barrier at 0°, they enter into operation at a speed equal to or more than 28 kph and the device does not enter into operation at a speed of equal to or less than 20 kph.

Protection against fires

The collection of measures to protect against the risk of the vehicle catching fire after an impact consist of the adoption of metal fuel pipes;

• the fitting of an anti-flow fuel inertia system, including an electric supply pump cut-off and a one-way valve on the relevant pipe;
