SAFETY FIRST
Warning notes
•
It is important to maintain a dis-
tance of at least 25 cm from the
steering wheel or instrument
panel so that the front seat occu-
pants have the best possible
effective protection if the system
is triggered. The front seats must
always be correctly adjusted to the
body height.
•
If you are not wearing a seat belt
or lean forward whilst driving or
are sitting in the wrong position,
you are open to a higher risk of
injury in an accident when the
Airbag System inflates.
•
Children must never be allowed
to sit unsecured on the front seat
whilst the vehicle is in motion. If
the Airbag System is triggered dur-
ing an accident, children could be
seriously injured or killed. For fur-
ther important points please refer
to the previous chapter "Safety for
children".
•
No persons, animals or objects
should be located between the
front-seat occupants and the effec-
tive range of the airbags.
•
The protective function of the
airbag will only be triggered for one
accident. If the airbag has been
triggered, the system must be
replaced.
•
The steering wheel padded plate
and the padded surface of the
airbag module on the passenger
side of dash panel must not have
stickers attached, nor should they be
covered or re-worked in any other
way. These parts should only be
cleaned with a dry cloth or a cloth
moistened with water.
No other items such as, for exam-
ple, telephone or cup holders
should be attached to the Airbag
module.
•
No modifications of any kind
may be undertaken on the parts of
the Airbag System.
•
All work on the Airbag System ,
including the removal and instal-
lation of system parts during other
repair work (e.g. removing the
steering wheel), should only be
carried out by Technical Service
Centres.
•
When the vehicle is sold, the
complete vehicle wallet should be
passed on to the new owner.
Please note that this also applies
to the documentation for the pas-
senger Airbag, which might be
deactivated.
Note
If the vehicle or individual parts of the
Airbag system is scrapped, one must
always observe the relevant valid safety
regulations.
