The

Disposal of Airbags

When your vehicle is sold, ensure that the new owner
knows the vehicle is equipped with airbags, and is aware
of the replacement date of the airbag system.
If the vehicle is scrapped, the undeployed airbags may have
potential risks, therefore, before the disposal, they must be
deployed safely in a certain environment by a professional
Even if the airbag does not deploy, collisions
may cause damage to the airbag system
in the vehicle. Airbags may not function
properly after damage, and can not protect
you and other passengers when a second
collision occurs, which may cause serious
injury or even death. To ensure that airbag
system can function properly after collision,
please go to an MG Authorised Repairer to
check airbags and repair as necessary.
