tection in an accident. There is an increased

risk of injury.
Have the vehicle towed to a qualified spe-

cialist workshop in order to have a deployed

air bag replaced.

It is important for your safety and that of your

passenger to have deployed air bags replaced

and to have any malfunctioning air bags

repaired. This will help to make sure the air

bags continue to perform their protective func-

tion for the vehicle occupants in the event of a

crash.

G

WARNING

Emergency Tensioning Devices that have

deployed pyrotechnically are no longer

operational and are unable to perform their

intended protective function. This poses an

increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Have pyrotechnically triggered Emergency

Tensioning Devices replaced immediately at

a qualified specialist workshop.

If Emergency Tensioning Devices are triggered

or air bags are deployed, you will hear a bang,

and some powder may also be released. The

6

restraint system warning lamp lights up.

Only in rare cases will the bang affect your

hearing. The powder that is released generally

does not constitute a health hazard, but it may

cause short-term breathing difficulties in peo-

ple with asthma or other respiratory problems.

Provided it is safe to do so, you should leave

the vehicle immediately or open the window in

order to prevent breathing difficulties.

Air bags and pyrotechnic Emergency Tension-

ing Devices (ETDs) contain perchlorate mate-

rial, which may require special handling and

regard for the environment. National guide-

lines must be observed during disposal. In Cal-

ifornia, see www.dtsc.ca.gov/

HazardousWaste/Perchlorate/index.cfm.

Method of operation

During the first stage of a collision, the

restraint system control unit evaluates impor-

tant physical data relating to vehicle decelera-

tion or acceleration, such as:

R

duration

R

direction

R

intensity

Based on the evaluation of this data, the

restraint system control unit triggers the Emer-

gency Tensioning Devices during a head-on or

rear-end collision.

An Emergency Tensioning Device can only be

triggered, if:

R

the ignition is switched on

R

the components of the restraint system are

operational. You can find further information

under "Restraint system warning lamp"

(

Y

page 40)

R

the seat belt buckle tongue has engaged in

the belt buckle of the respective front seat

The Emergency Tensioning Devices in the rear

passenger compartment are triggered inde-

pendently of the lock status of the seat belts.

If the restraint system control unit detects a

more severe accident, further components of

the restraint system are activated independ-

ently of each other in certain frontal collision

situations:

R

Front air bags as well as driver's and front-

passenger knee bags

R

Window curtain air bag, if the system deter-

mines that deployment can offer additional

protection to that provided by the seat belt

Depending on the person in the front-

passenger seat, the front-passenger front air

bag is either enabled or disabled. The front-

passenger front air bag can be deployed in an

accident only if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF

indicator lamp is off. Observe the information

on the PASSENGER AIR BAG indicator lamps

(

Y

page 40).

Your vehicle has two-stage front air bags.

The activation threshold of the Emergency

Tensioning Devices and the air bags is deter-

mined by evaluating the rate of vehicle decel-

eration or acceleration which occurs at various

points in the vehicle. This process is pre-emp-

tive in nature. Deployment should take place

in good time at the start of the collision.
