Range Rover Evoque: Front airbags
The front passenger and driver airbags are able
to deploy in two stages, depending on the
severity of the frontal impact. In a severe
impact, the airbags inflate fully to stage two
giving maximum protection. In a lesser impact,
full inflation may not be required, so the
airbags will only inflate to stage one. The knee
bolster airbag will always fully inflate.

These are designed to protect the thorax region
of the torso and will deploy only in the event of
a side impact and then, only on the side of the
impact.
The curtain airbags are deployed in side impact
and rollover events, providing greater
protection from serious head injuries. They
deflate at a slower rate than the front or side
airbags.
When an airbag inflates, a
fine
powder is released. This is normal
and not an indication of a malfunction.
The powder may cause irritation to the
skin and should be thoroughly flushed
from eye

A colder ambient local temperature will reduce
pressure within the tyre. An effect is to
decrease sidewall height and to increase tyre
shoulder wear with the potential for tyre failure.
Vehicle dynamics could also be adversely
affected.
Tyre pressures can be adjusted to compensate

Within this procedure there are 2 different options depending on type of
vehicle body.
