systems can be triggered in an
explosive manner.

pretensioner control electronics are
located in the centre console area.
Do not put any magnetic objects in
this area.
Do not affix any objects onto the
airbag covers and do not cover them with other materials. Have damaged
covers replaced by a workshop.
Each airbag is triggered only once.

a workshop. Furthermore, it may be
necessary to have the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, parts of the panelling, the door seals,
handles and the seats replaced.
