Ferrari F430 Spider Owner's Manual page 65

Improper operations performed on the system
components may cause failures or deployment
of the airbags with consequent damage.
The airbag system components have been
specially designed only for this specific vehicle
model. Do not attempt to use them on other
vehicles, as this could cause serious injuries to
occupants in the event of an accident.
If the vehicle is to be scrapped, contact your
Authorized Ferrari Dealer to have the
airbag system deactivated.
If the vehicle has been stolen or there has been
an attempted theft, have the airbag system
checked by an Authorized Ferrari Dealer.
The airbag modules must be
replaced at the intervals specified in
the "Warranty Booklet and Maintenance
Schedule", even if the vehicle has not been
involved in a collision.
The label C located on the right-hand sun
visor next to the courtesy mirror shows the
expiration date of the airbag system. When
this expiration date draws near, contact
your Authorized Ferrari Dealer in order
to have the system replaced.
The labels shown in the figure indicate the
presence of the airbag system.
