of at least 10 cm between the legs

and the instrument panel in the vi-
cinity of the knee airbag

ment due to your body size, visit a specialist garage.

The surface of the airbag module in the lower part of the dash panel be-
low the steering column not have stickers attached, be covered or modified

tion key. These can be ejected by the knee airbag when it is deployed and
