PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS
Do not modify the front of your
vehicle in any way. This could
adversely affect deployment of the
airbags.
Never use a child or baby seat in the
front seat on the passenger side.
Maximum airbag efficiency is
obtained with the correct seat and
seat backrest adjustment. Adjust
them so that the steering wheel can be
held with the arms slightly bent, and place
the seat backrest almost in the vertical
position (30° at most). Fasten the seatbelt
and keep a distance of at least 25
centimeters between the steering wheel
and the driver's chest to reduce the risk of
injury for being much too close to the
airbag when it is inflated. The same applies
to the front passenger.
Have repairs to the steering wheel,
steering column, seats, airbags and
safety belts carried out only by an
authorized dealer.
Do not place anything over the
airbag. Objects placed over the
airbag inflation area may be
projected on your face and torso when the
airbag is triggered, causing serious injury.
Failure to follow these instructions may
increase the risk of injury in case of a crash.
Do not puncture the seat with pins,
needles or other pointed objects.
This could cause damage and
adversely affect deployment of the
airbags.
Use seat covers designed for seats
with side airbags. Have them
installed by an authorized dealer.
WARNINGS
Many airbag system components
become hot after triggering. Avoid
touching any component of the
airbag system soon after triggering as this
may result in serious injury.
Note:
You will hear a loud bang and see a
cloud of harmless powdery residue if an
airbag deploys. This is normal.
Note:
Only wipe airbag covers with a damp
cloth.
Note:
Do not allow passengers in the front
seat to ride with their feet, knees or any
other body part touching or too close to the
airbag cover. There is a risk of serious injury
if the airbag is triggered.
Note:
Never place your arm over the airbag
as a deploying airbag can result in serious
arm fractures or other injuries.
Note:
Modifying or adding equipment to
the front part of the vehicle (including
chassis, bumper, front body structures and
towing hooks) may affect the performance
of the airbag system, increasing the risk of
injury. Do not modify the front part of your
vehicle.
