z After airbags deflate, you may notice a
burning smell, sm oke and white powd er
in the interior, which is normal. Although
they may cause skin or eye irritation,
these substances are non-toxic.
z Hazard warning lights may flash and
locked doors may be unlocked
automatically when airbags deploy 3.
z The speeds, directions of movement and
deformation properties of the vehicles,
and the properties of the obstacle
concerned, determine the severity of the
accident and triggering of the airbags.
z The degree of damag e to y our v ehicle
and the resulting repair costs alone are
not indicative that the criteria for
triggering of the airbags were met.
z Do not perform any modifications to the
components of the airbag systems, as
this will render the vehicle unroadworthy.
z We recommend having the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, all panelling
parts, the door seals, handles and the
front se ats remove d by a works hop in
the event of airbag deployment.
z When disposing of the vehicle, observe
the applicable sa fety regulations. Have
the vehicle disposed of by a disposal
company which reuses vehicle parts.
