Warnings and safety regulations
collision involving deployment of the airbag. Usually the injuries are by no
means as serious as the injuries that may occur in a collision without airbag
and safety belt tensioners.
WARNING!
– Do not touch any parts of the airbag/safety belt tensioner systems
after deployment.
After deployment the parts of the airbag/safety belt tensioner systems
may be hot. Touching these parts can cause burns or serious injury.
Work
– Observe the DAF safety precautions when repairing, removing or replacing the
airbag or safety belt tensioner system or parts thereof. For this reason, have this
work carried out by an approved DAF Service dealer or DAF workshop only.
– Do not make any modifications to the airbag and safety belt tensioner system or
parts thereof. This would cause an injury hazard and correct activation can then no
longer be guaranteed.
– Observe the DAF safety precautions regarding the airbag and safety belt tensioner
system when the vehicle is scrapped or dismantled.
– Retrofitting of accessories is only permitted if the accessories are approved by DAF
for vehicles with an airbag and safety belt tensioner. Installation must take place at
the position indicated by DAF and according to the procedure specified by DAF.
– When replacing the windscreen, observe a longer drying time for the windscreen
sealant. This longer drying time is usually stated on the windscreen sealant packing
or tube. If in doubt, contact DAF or the windscreen sealant supplier.
– If any welding is required, observe DAF's safety precautions for welding jobs.
Sales
– If the ownership of the vehicle is transferred, the previous owner must make the
new owner aware of the above instructions.
1.6 TECHNICAL ITEMS OF SPECIAL IMPORTANCE
To prevent damage to the vehicle, the following instructions must be strictly
observed.
Original components
To meet the warranty conditions and guarantee the service life, safety and reliability of
the DAF products, the use of non-original components and software is not permitted
and in some cases even illegal. The application of software, software settings and/or
components not approved by DAF adversely affects critical systems in terms of the
safety of the vehicle (for example, the brake system) or can lead to an engine power
derate.
