Airbag system
Airbag system
The airbag system consists of a
number of individual systems.
When triggered the airbags inflate
within milliseconds. They also deflate
so quickly that it is often unnoticeable
during the collision.
Note
The airbag systems and belt
tensioner control electronics are
located in the central console area.
Do not put any magnetic objects in
this area.
Do not stick anything on the airbag
covers and do not cover them with
other materials.
Each airbag is triggered only once.
Have deployed airbags replaced
by a repairer.
Do not make any modifications to
the airbag system as this will
invalidate the vehicle type
approval.
In the event of airbag deployment
have the steering wheel, the
instrument panel, all panelling
parts, the door seals, the handles
and the seats removed by a
repairer.
{Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an
explosive manner.
The driver should sit back as far as
possible while still maintaining
control of the vehicle. If you are
sitting too close to the airbag, it can
cause death or serious injury when
it inflates.
For maximum safety protection in
all types of crashes, all occupants
including the driver should always
wear their safety belts to minimize
the risk of severe injury or death in
the event of a crash. Do not sit or
lean unnecessarily close to the
airbag while the vehicle is in
motion.
The airbag may cause facial or
body scratch, injury by broken
glasses or getting a burn by
explosion while airbag is deployed.
