Warnings and Safety Regulations
28
Activation
- If the airbag is activated in a collision, a white powder/gas will be released. This
is in no way an indication of fire. The powder itself is not health-damaging.
- The airbag and seat belt tensioners can be activated only once. After activation
of the system the parts must be replaced by an authorized Service dealer to
provide the same protection.
- In the event of a minor collision not causing the airbag and seat belt tensioner
system to be activated, it is recommended to have the system checked as yet by
an authorized Service dealer.
The airbag fabric could cause slight injury because of the rapid
movement of the airbag during activation. People wearing
spectacles and persons smoking when driving run an increased
risk of facial injury in a collision involving deployment of the airbag.
Usually the injuries are by no means as serious as the injuries that
may occur in a collision without airbag and seat belt tensioners.
Avoid touching parts of the airbag shortly after deployment of the
airbag unit because they may be hot.
