The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein individual folds of the fold packets of the gas bag are placed transversely to an expulsion direction of the gas bag from the housing. 3. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the deflector segment comprises at least one gas passage opening to allow gas from the gas generator to pass into an internal space between the deflector segment and one of the outside housing walls. 4. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the deflector segment extends along a longitudinal direction of the gas generator in a direction of the exit opening. 5. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the deflector segment extends beyond the gas generator in a direction of the exit opening. 6. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the deflector segment has an end directed towards the exit opening of the housing and wherein the deflector segment end is bent in the direction toward the gas generator. 7. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the deflector segment has an end directed toward the exit opening of the housing and wherein the deflector segment end is bent outward with respect to the gas generator. 8. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the holder is connected to the housing. 9. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the holder is disposed between the gas generator and the housing without fastening. 10. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the holder support area is oriented parallel to the housing floor, and wherein the support area has a dimension that substantially coincides with the dimension of the gas generator along a plane parallel to the support area. 11. The airbag module in accordance with claim 1, wherein the gas generator is fixed radially and axially to the housing. 12. An airbag module comprising: a gas generator; a gas bag having a plurality of fold packets; a housing containing a floor area, outside walls extending upward from the floor area, and an exit opening through which the gas bag is deployed; and a holder having a support area and at least one deflector segment directed toward the exit opening and surrounding the gas generator, wherein the gas generator and holder are located inside the gas bag, wherein the gas generator is fixed to the housing, wherein the holder is located between the gas generator and the housing and directs gas generated by the gas generator into at least one of the fold packets of the gas bag, wherein the gas generator is placed in a corner area of the housing and the holder has a deflector segment enclosing the gas generator on one side, wherein a fold packet is located between the gas generator and the exit opening and a further fold packet is located in an internal space formed between the deflector segment and the outside wall of the housing facing away from the gas generator, wherein the holder is U-shaped and has an additional deflector segment running alongside one outside wall of the housing. 13. An airbag module comprising: a gas generator; a gas bag having a plurality of fold packets; a housing containing a floor area, outside walls extending upward from the floor area, and an exit opening through which the gas bag is deployed; and a holder having a support area and at least one deflector segment directed toward the exit opening and surrounding the gas generator, wherein the gas generator and holder are located inside the gas bag, wherein the gas generator is fixed to the housing, wherein the holder is located between the gas generator and the housing and directs gas generated by the gas generator into at least one of the fold packets of the gas bag, wherein the gas generator is placed in a central area of the housing and the holder is U-shaped with two deflector segments that enclose the gas generator between the deflector segments, wherein three fold packets of the gas bag are provided, wherein two fold packets are outside fold packets, each placed in an internal space between one of the deflector segments and one of the outside housing walls, wherein a central fold packet is placed between the gas generator and the exit opening. 14.
