restraint system manufacturer's installation
instructions.
Objects in the vehicle interior may prevent
the air bag from functioning correctly.
Before starting your journey and to avoid risks
resulting from the speed of the air bag as it
deploys, make sure that:
there are no people, animals or objects
R
between the vehicle occupants and an air
bag.
there are no objects between the seat, door
R
and B-pillar.
no accessories, such as cup holders, are
R
attached to the vehicle within the deployment
area of an air bag, e.g. to doors or side win-
dows.
no heavy, sharp-edged or fragile objects are in
R
the pockets of your clothing. Store such
objects in a suitable place.

WARNING
If you modify the air bag cover or affix objects
such as stickers to it, the air bag can no longer
function correctly. There is an increased risk
of injury.
Never modify an air bag cover or affix objects
to it.

WARNING
Sensors to control the air bags are located in
the doors. Modifications or work not per-
formed correctly to the doors or door panel-
ing, as well as damaged doors, can lead to the
function of the sensors being impaired. The air
bags might therefore not function properly
anymore. Consequently, the air bags cannot
protect vehicle occupants as they are
designed to do. There is an increased risk of
injury.
Never modify the doors or parts of the doors.
Always have work on the doors or door pan-
eling carried out at a qualified specialist work-
shop.
