Keep a distance from the air-
bags.
Always grasp the steering
wheel on the steering wheel
rim. Hold your hands at the 3
o'clock and 9 o'clock posi-
tions, to keep the risk of injury
to your hands or arms as low
as possible when the airbag is
triggered.
Make sure that the front pas-
senger is sitting correctly, i.e.,
keeps his or her feet and legs
in the floor area and does not
support them on the dash-
board.
Make sure that occupants keep their heads away from
the side airbag.
There should be no addi-
tional persons, animals or
objects between an airbag
and a person.

the front passenger side must
stay clear - do not attach
adhesive labels or coverings
and do not attach brackets or
cables, for instance for GPS
devices or mobile phones.

als to the airbag cover panels,
do not cover them or modify
them in any way.

senger side as a storage
area.
