Do not use any accessory seatcovers that are not specificallydesigned for seats with side airbags.These seat covers must be fitted byproperly trained technicians.
WARNING
Always wear the seat belt andkeep sufficient distancebetween the driver and the steeringwheel. Only when the seat belt isused properly, can it hold the bodyin a position which allows the airbagto achieve its optimum effect. Thereis a risk of injury when the airbagdeploys.
