All of the following warnings are intended to ensure that the airbag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be projected when it inflates.

warning

The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the airbag and the seat belt are integral parts of the same protection system. It is therefore essential to wear seat belts at all times. If seat belts are not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial injuries occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always possible with airbags.

If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pretensioners and airbags are not always triggered. Shocks to the underbody of the vehicle, from pavements, potholes, stones, etc. can all trigger these systems.

  • After the airbag has deployed, the related components and surrounding parts can become very hot, so do not touch them for at least 30 minutes. There is a risk of burns.
  • Any work or modification on any part of the airbag (airbags, pretensioners, computer, wiring harness, etc.) is strictly prohibited (except by qualified personnel from the network).
  • To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental triggering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified personnel from the network may work on an airbag system.
  • As a safety precaution, have the airbag system checked if your vehicle has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.
  • When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the new purchaser of these conditions when handing over this vehicle user manual.
  • When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved dealer for disposal of the airbag(s) and pretensioner(s).
  • The airbag inflates rapidly with hot gas to protect the occupants' lives in the event of a sudden accident. Depending on the circumstances of the accident, injuries such as abrasions, contusions, and burns may occur.
