Warning
G
If the emergency tensioning retractors have
been triggered, have them replaced at a
qualified specialist workshop which has the
necessary specialist knowledge and tools to
carry out the work required.
The manufacturer recommends that you use
an authorized Sprinter Dealer for this pur-
pose. In particular, work relevant to safety
or on safety-related systems must be car-
ried out at a qualified specialist workshop.
Observe the safety regulations when dispos-
ing of emergency tensioning retractors. You
can see a copy of these regulations at any
authorized Sprinter Dealer.
Airbag systemWarning
G
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries
in the event of an accident with a high rate
of deceleration, for example due to an air-
bag inflating within milliseconds, or due to
sudden braking, please observe the follow-
ing points:
\4All vehicle occupants must select a seat
position in which they can wear their
seat belt correctly and which is as far
back from the airbag as possible. The
seat position of the driver must be such
that the vehicle can be driven safely. The
distance from the driver’s seat to the
pedals must be such that the driver can
fully depress the pedals. The distance
between the driver’s chest and the cen-
ter of the airbag cover must be more
than 25 cm. The driver’s arms should be
slightly bent when holding the steering
wheel.
\4Vehicle occupants should wear their
seat belt correctly at all times and lean
back against the backrest, which should
be positioned as upright as possible.
The head restraints should support the
back of the head at about eye level.
\4Move the co-driver’s seat as far to the
rear as possible, especially if a child is
secured in a restraint system installed
on this seat.
\4On vehicles with a co-driver’s airbag, it
is not permitted to secure a rearward-
facing child restraint system to the co-
driver’s seat (\2page 37). Children in a
rearward-facing child restraint system
must be secured on a suitable rear seat.
\4Do not lean forward, for example over
the padded boss of the steering wheel,
especially when the vehicle is in motion.
\4Only hold the steering wheel by the out-
er rim. This allows the airbag to inflate
fully. If you hold the inside of the steer-
ing wheel, you could be injured if the air-
bag were to be triggered.

Your vehicle is equipped with the following
airbags, depending on the equipment ver-
sion:
\4Driver’s front airbag, located in the
steering wheel
\4Co-driver’s front airbag, located above
the glove box
\4Thorax sidebags* in the outer sides of
the driver’s seat and the co-driver’s in-
dividual seat
\4Windowbags* in the side of the roof
frame between the A and B-pillars
Each airbag's cover is marked with the let-
ters "SRS/AIRBAG" or "AIRBAG".How airbags work
An airbag inflates within milliseconds. The
1 warning lamp in the instrument clus-
ter comes on.
Airbag inflation slows down and restricts
the movement of the vehicle occupant.
When the vehicle occupant makes contact
with the airbag, hot gas flows out of the in-
flated airbag. This reduces the load on the
head and upper body of the vehicle occu-
pant. The airbag is therefore in a deflated
state after an accident.
\4Do not put your feet on the dashboard.
\4Do not lean on the doors from inside the
vehicle.
\4Make sure that no persons, animals or
objects are present between the vehicle
occupants and the deployment range of
the airbags.
\4Do not cover the padded boss of the
steering wheel, the co-driver’s airbag
cover, the windowbag cover or the
thorax / sidebag cover with film or other
material. Do not affix any badges or
stickers to these areas.
\4Do not hang any hard objects, for exam-
ple coat hangers, on the grab handles or
coat hooks.
\4Do not place any items in the storage
compartment above the co-driver’s air-
bag if they protrude from the compart-
ment. The co-driver’s airbag must be
able to inflate unimpeded.
The risk of injuries from an airbag cannot be
entirely ruled out due to the high speed at
which the airbag is required to inflate.
iIf the airbags are triggered, you will
hear a bang and a small amount of dust
may also be released. The bang will not
damage your hearing and the dust does
not constitute a health hazard.

Front airbags
The front airbags are designed to increase
protection to the driver’s and co-driver’s/
co-drivers' head and chest.
The driver’s airbag is located in the steer-
ing wheel housing; the co-driver’s is above
the glove box.
1Driver’s airbag
2Co-driver’s airbag
Driver’s front airbag1 inflates in front of
the steering wheel; co-driver’s front
airbag2 inflates in front of and above the
glove box and the center console.
Warning
G
After an airbag has been triggered:
\4airbag parts are hot – do not touch
them, otherwise you could be burnt
\4the airbags must be replaced at a quali-
fied specialist workshop which has the
necessary specialist knowledge and
tools to carry out the work required. The
manufacturer recommends that you use
an authorized Sprinter Dealer for this
purpose.
In particular, work relevant to safety or
on safety-related systems must be car-
ried out at a qualified specialist work-
shop.
Warning
G
A small amount of fine powder is released as
an airbag inflates. This powder does not
constitute a health hazard, nor does it imply
that fire has broken out in the vehicle. This
powder could cause short-term breathing
difficulties for persons suffering from asth-
ma or other respiratory conditions. To avoid
these breathing difficulties, you should ei-
ther:
\4leave the vehicle immediately, if it is
possible to do so safely
or
\4open the window to allow fresh air to
enter
