The Audi A4 is equipped with standard airbags on the driver's side and on the passenger's side next to the driver. Under the large impact plate in the middle of the steering wheel, or under the dashboard outline on the right, there is one air bag each. Ignition occurs upon collision with a hard obstacle at a speed of at least 18 km / h or at a higher speed when two cars collide. The impact force is determined by the trigger, which is located in front under the center console. It also activates «ignition cartridge» in the steering wheel or in the dashboard. The airbag provides protection only in combination with seat belts.
