from the airbag module as possible while maintaining vehicle control.
WARNING:
Several airbag system components get hot after
inflation. Do not touch them after inflation or you may be
burned.
WARNING:
If the airbag and seat belt pretensioners have
deployed, the airbag or seat belt pretensioners will not function
again and must be replaced immediately. If the airbag or seat belt
pretensioners are not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the
risk of injury in a collision.
