Risk of injury
A small amount of fine powder is released as
an airbag inflates. This powder does not
constitute a health hazard, nor does it imply
that fire has broken out in the vehicle. This
powder could cause short-term breathing
difficulties for persons suffering from asth-
ma or other respiratory conditions. In order
to prevent possible breathing difficulties you
should leave the vehicle as soon as it is safe
to do so.
