lean unnecessarily close to the
airbag while the vehicle is in
motion.
The airbag may cause facial or
body scratch, injury by broken
glasses or getting burnt by
explosion while airbag is
deployed.
Note
The airbag systems and belt
tensioner control electronics are
located in the centre console area.
Do not put any magnetic objects in
this area.
Do not stick anything on the airbag
covers and do not cover them with
other materials.
Each airbag is triggered only once.
Have deployed airbags replaced by
a workshop.
Do not make any modifications to
the airbag system as this will
invalidate the vehicle type approval.
In the event of airbag deployment
have the steering wheel, the
instrument panel, all panelling parts,
the door seals, the handles and the
seats replaced by a workshop.
When an airbag deploys, there may
be a loud noise and smoke. These
conditions are normal and are not
dangerous but it may irritate the skin
of the occupant. If the irritation is
persistent, contact a doctor.
9 Danger
Never allow children or infants and
pregnant women and the old and
the weak sit in the front passenger
seats fitted with airbags.
Furthermore, do not drive with a
baby seat fitted thereon. In case of
an accident, the impact from the
inflated airbag can cause facial
injury or death.
Caution
If the vehicle is impacted by
bumps or objects on unpaved
roads or sidewalks, the airbags
may inflate. Drive slowly on
surfaces not designed for vehicle
traffic to prevent unintended
airbag deployment.
When the airbags inflate, escaping
hot gases may cause burns.
