3. GENERAL WARNINGS
Do not diagnose the circuit with a circuit tester or attempt to modify any air bag components including
the steering wheel, air bag mounting area and harness.
Incorrect inspection could cause a problem with an air bag and seat belt pretensioner, and they
cannot protect occupants properly. Inspection and repair service should be done only by a qualified
technician.
An infant or a child should not be seated on the front seat alone or on an adult's lap. An infant or a
child could be severely injured by air bag deployed.
A child restraint system should be placed on the rear seat which has the 3-point type seat
belt.
Never install a child restraint system on the front seat. Impact by the air bag inflation might cause
severe injury or even death.
When an occupant fastens the seat belt with unstable or inclined posture, the air bag cannot protect
the occupant properly. Moreover, the occupant may be injured by the air bag.
Do not incline toward the steering wheel while driving. If you hit the air bag before it is fully inflated,
brain or neck injury, or even death can occur.
Be careful not to strike the steering wheel, air bag mounting area, any air bag related component
(including wiring) and seat belt pretensioner. You might get severely injured by sudden deployment o
f
the air bag.
The air bag contains explosive materials, so handle it carefully when disposing or replacing it.
The air bag components will be very hot immediately after deployment. Do not touch them until they
cool down.
Once the air bag/seat belt pretentioner is triggered, it will not deploy again even if an additional impac
t
is applied to it. Once triggered air bag/seat belt pretensioner related components cannot be reused,
so they should be removed from the vehicle and the whole system should be replaced with a new
one.
Do not place any object or sticker on the air bag mounting area for correct and safe activation of the
air bag.
Do not bang the door. Otherwise, an air bag might operate erroneously.
Hold the outer rim of the steering so that the air bag can inflate without any hindrance.
Do not incline toward the steering wheel or hold the steering wheel with your hands
crossed. It will cause a problem with the air bag activation or severe injury when the air bag
inflates.
Never put your hands or feet on the dash board. You can severely injured when the air bag
inflates.
It is normal that a loud noise, dust and smoke occur when the air bag and seat belt pretensioner
operate.
The gas come out of air bag/seat belt pretensioner activation is non-toxic nitrogen gas. However, if
this gas occurs irritation to your skin, eyes, nose, and so on, wash it out with clean water. Seek
medical help if symptoms develop. -
