Repairs to either of the frontseat covers, the sensorsattached to the seats as well as tothe roof lining should only be carriedout by properly trained technicians.Injuries may result if the side airbagsare triggered inadvertently.
Do not block, obstruct or coverthe airbag because it mayprevent proper deployment. Do notpoke any sharp objects into the areaswhere airbags are fitted. This coulddamage the airbags.
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.
