Opel Corsa: Airbag system / Curtain airbag system. Airbag deactivation
Curtain airbag system
The curtain airbag system consists of an airbag in the roof frame on each side. This can be identified by the word AIRBAG on the roof pillars.
The curtain airbag system is triggered in the event of a side-on impact of a certain severity. The ignition must be switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the impact, thereby reducing the risk of injury to the head in the event of a side-on impact considerably.
Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag inflates clear of obstructions.
The hooks on the handles in the roof frame are only suitable for hanging up light articles of clothing, without coat hangers. Do not keep any items in these clothes.
Airbag deactivation
The front passenger airbag system must be deactivated for child restraint system on the passenger seat according to the instructions in the table 3 44. The side airbag and curtain airbag systems, the belt pretensioners and all driver airbag systems will remain active.
The front passenger airbag system can be deactivated via a keyoperated switch in the glovebox.
Use the ignition key to choose the position:
OFF
: front passenger airbag is
deactivated and will not
inflate in the event of a
collision, control indicator
OFF
illuminates
continuously in the centre
console.
ON
: front passenger airbag is
active.
Danger
Deactivate passenger airbag only in combination with the use of a child restraint system, subject to the instructions and restrictions in the table.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal injury for a person occupying a seat with a deactivated front passenger airbag.
If the control indicator 
illuminates
for approx. 60 seconds after the
ignition is switched on, the front
passenger airbag system will inflate
in the event of a collision.
If the control indicator 
illuminates
after the ignition is switched on, the
front passenger airbag system is
deactivated. It stays on while the
airbag is deactivated.
If both control indicators are illuminated at the same time, there is a system failure. The status of the system is not discernible, therefore no person is allowed to occupy the front passenger seat. Contact a workshop immediately.
Consult a workshop immediately if neither of the two control indicators are illuminated.
Change status only when the vehicle is stopped with the ignition off.
Status remains until the next change.
