Airbags are not triggered in every impact situation, e.g., in less severe accidents or rear-end collisions.
Information on how to ensure the optimal protective effect of the airbags
This also applies to steering wheel covers, the dashboard, the seats, the roof pillars and the sides of the roofliner.
Even when you follow all instructions very closely, injury from contact with the airbags cannot be ruled out in certain situations.
The ignition and inflation noise may lead to short-term and, in most cases, temporary hearing impairment in sensitive individuals.
Malfunction, deactivation and after deploying the airbags
Do not touch the individual components immediately after the system has been triggered; otherwise, you may risk burns.
Only have the airbags checked, repaired or dismantled and the airbag generator scrapped by the service center or an authorized repair shop for handling explosives.
Non-professional attempts to service the system could lead to failure in an emergency or unintentional activation of the airbag - both may lead to injury.
Warnings and information on the airbags are also found on the sun visors.
