Never rely solely on the airbag system for your protection.
Even if an airbag is triggered, it only offers auxiliary protection.
The airbag system offers the best level of protection, and reduces the risk of injury, when seat belts are properly worn
→ Seat belts
.
Before every trip, each vehicle occupant must adopt the correct sitting position, correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to their seat and
keep it fastened properly throughout the trip. This applies to all vehicle occupants and also in urban traffic.
WARNING
The risk of injury increases if there are any objects between the vehicle occupants and the deployment area of the airbag when it is triggered.
This will alter the deployment zone of the airbag, or the objects will be flung against the body.
Never hold any objects in your hand or on your lap while the vehicle is in motion.
Never transport any objects on the front passenger seat. The objects could enter the deployment zone of the airbag during sudden braking
or driving manoeuvres and then be flung dangerously through the vehicle interior if the airbag is activated.
Vehicle occupants sitting on the front seats and rear outer seats must never carry any people, pets or objects in the deployment zone
between themselves and the airbags. Make sure that children and passengers also keep to this rule.
WARNING
The airbag system can only be triggered once. The system will have to be replaced if the airbags have been triggered.
Airbags that have been triggered, and any affected system parts, must immediately be replaced with new parts that are approved by
Volkswagen for the vehicle.
Repairs and modifications to your vehicle should only be carried out by a qualified workshop. Qualified workshops have the necessary tools,
diagnostic equipment, repair information and qualified personnel.
Never use recycled airbag components or components that have been taken from end-of-life vehicles in your vehicle.
Never alter any components of the airbag system.
