Side impact collision 

If a side-on collision is detected by the left sidebag and windowbag sensor (A53/1) or the right sidebag and windowbag sensor (A54/1), the body lateral acceleration data are transmitted to the restraint systems control unit (N2/7). The restraint systems control unit (N2/7) checks the plausibility of the data. If the data is plausible the following squibs are ignited if a side-on impact occurs at the left-hand side of the vehicle:

If a side-on impact occurs at the right-hand side of the vehicle:

The front passenger seat occupied and child seat recognition sensor (B48) registers whether or not the front passenger seat is occupied. If the front passenger seat is unoccupied or a child seat has been fitted, the right front sidebag squib (R12/21) is not triggered.

IMPORTANT If the seat occupied recognition is malfunctioning, the right front sidebag squib (R12/21) is triggered for safety reasons.
