Safety guidelines for the seat belt, emer-
gency tensioning device and airbag
When you sell your vehicle, we strongly
urge you to give notice to the subse-
quent owner that it is equipped with an
SRS by alerting them to the applicable
section in the Operator’s Manual.
Warning! G
Damaged seat belts or belts that were
highly stressed in an accident must be
replaced and their anchoring points
must also be checked. Use only belts in-
stalled or supplied by an authorized
Maybach Studio.
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.
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, passenger
front airbag cover, 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 occu-
pants free from objects (e.g. packages,
purses, umbrellas, etc.).
Do not pass belts over sharp edges.
They could tear.
Do not make any modification that
could change the effectiveness of the
belts.
Do not bleach or dye seat belts as this
may severely weaken them. In a crash
they may not be able to provide ade-
quate protection.
Do not hang items such as coat hang-
ers from the coat hooks or handles
over the door. These items may turn
into projectiles and cause head and
other injuries when curtain airbag is
deployed.
Never place your feet on the instru-
ment panel, dashboard, or on the seat.
Always keep both feet on the floor in
front of the seat.
Airbag system components will be hot
after an air bag has inflated. Do not
touch.
In addition, improper repair work on
the SRS creates a risk of rendering
the SRS inoperative or causing unin-
tended airbag deployment. Work on
the SRS must therefore only be per-
formed by qualified technicians. Con-
tact an authorized Maybach Studio.
For your protection and the protection
of others, when scrapping the airbag
unit or emergency tensioning device,
our safety instructions must be fol-
lowed. These instructions are available
from your authorized Maybach Studio.
Given the considerable deployment
speed and the textile structure of the
airbags, there is the possibility of abra-
sions or other injuries resulting from
airbag deployment.
