Additional methods of restraint
All of the following warnings are
intended to ensure that the airbag is
not obstructed in any way when it is
inflated and also to prevent the risk
of serious injuries caused by items
which may be projected when it
inflates.
The airbag is designed
to complement the
action of the seat belt.
Both the airbag and the
seat belt are integral parts of the
same protection system. It is
therefore essential to wear seat
belts at all times. If seat belts are
not worn, the occupants are
exposed to the risk of serious
injury in the event of an accident.
It may also increase the risk of
minor superficial injuries occurring
when the airbag is deployed,
although such minor injuries are
always possible with airbags.
If the vehicle should overturn or
suffer a rear impact, however
severe, the pretensioners and
airbags are not always triggered.
Shocks to the underbody of the
vehicle, from pavements,
potholes, stones etc. can all
trigger these systems.
– Any work or modification on any
part of the airbag (airbags,
pretensioners, computer, wiring
harness, etc.) is strictly
prohibited (except by qualified
personnel from the network).
– To ensure that the system is in
good working order and to avoid
accidental triggering of the
system which may cause injury,
only qualified personnel from the
network may work on an airbag
system.
– As a safety precaution, have
the airbag system checked if your
vehicle has been involved in an
accident, or is stolen or broken
into.
– When selling or lending the
vehicle, inform the new purchaser
of these conditions when handing
over this vehicle user manual.
– When scrapping your vehicle,
contact your approved dealer for
disposal of the gas generator(s).
