Safety and Security
Occupant safety
i Airbags are designed to activate only in
certain frontal impacts (front airbags), side
impacts (side impact airbags and window cur-
tain airbags) which exceed preset thresholds
and in certain rollovers (window curtain air-
bags). Only during these events will they pro-
vide their supplemental protection.
The driver and passengers should always wear
their seat belts. Otherwise it is not possible for
airbags to provide their supplemental protec-
tion.
In case of other types of impacts and impacts
below airbag deployment thresholds, airbags
will not deploy. The driver and passenger will
then be protected to the extent possible by a
properly fastened seat belt. A properly fas-
tened seat belt is also needed to provide the
best possible protection in a rollover.
We caution you not to rely on the presence of
the airbags in order to avoid wearing your
seat belt.
It is important to your safety and that of your
passengers that you replace deployed airbags
and repair any malfunctioning airbags to
make sure that the vehicle will continue to
provide supplemental crash protection for
occupants.
Safety guidelines for the seat belt, emer-
gency tensioning device and airbag
(2) Always sit as upright as possible,
properly use the seat belts, and for
children 12 years old and under, use an
appropriately sized infant or toddler
restraint or booster seat recommended
for the size and weight of the child.
(3) Always wear seat belts properly.
If you believe that, even with the use of
these guidelines, it would be safer for your
rear seat occupants to have both rear
mounted seat side impact airbags deacti-
vated, then deactivation can be accom-
plished upon your written request to do so
at an authorized Maybach Studio at an ad-
ditional cost.
Please contact your local authorized
Maybach Studio or call our Maybach
Assistance Center at
1-866-FOR-MAYBach (in the USA), or
1-888-881-6611 (in Canada).
Warning! G
앫 Damaged seat belts or seat belts that
were highly stressed in an accident
must be replaced and their anchoring
points must also be checked. Use only
seat belts installed or supplied by an
authorized Maybach Studio.
앫 Airbags and emergency tensioning
devices (ETDs) are designed to func-
tion on a one-time-only basis. An air-
bag or ETD that was activated must be
replaced.
앫 No modifications of any kind may be
made to any components or wiring of
the SRS. This includes changing or re-
moving any component or part of the
SRS, the installation of additional trim
material, seat covers, badges etc. over
the steering wheel hub, front passen-
ger front airbag cover, outboard sides
of the seat backrests, door trim panels,
or door frame trims, and installation of
additional electrical/electronic equip-
ment on or near SRS components and
wiring. Keep area between airbags
and occupants free from objects (e.g.
packages, purses, umbrellas, etc.).
앫 Do not pass seat belts over sharp edg-
es. They could tear.
