Inflation Effects
WARNING: When airbags inflate, a fine powder is
released. This powder can irritate the skin and
should be thoroughly flushed from the eyes and
from any cuts or abrasions.
After inflation, the airbags deflate to provide a gradual
cushioning effect for the occupants and to ensure the
driver's forward vision is not obscured.
If airbags have inflated, or if your vehicle has been in a
collision, always have the airbags, seat belt pre-
tensioners and any associated components checked
and, if necessary, replaced.
In a collision, in addition to the airbags inflating:
• Doors unlock.
• Hazard warning lights turn on.
• Interior lights turn on.
• High voltage is disabled (you must contact Roadside
Assistance to restore high voltage power).
• Seat belt pre-tensioners retract the seat belt anchor
and seat belt webbing.
NOTE: Depending on the nature of the impact and the
forces involved, doors may not unlock in a collision
and/or damage may prevent them from opening. In such
cases, the door may need to be opened using the
interior manual release, or other means of extrication
(for example, exiting through another door, breaking the
window, etc.).
Airbag Warnings
WARNING: Do not place objects over or near
airbags because any such objects could cause
harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe enough to
cause the airbag to inflate.
WARNING: All occupants, including the driver,
should always wear their seat belts, whether or not
an airbag is also provided at their seating position,
to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the
event of a collision.
WARNING: Front seat occupants should not place
their arms over the airbag module, as an inflating
airbag can cause fractures or other injuries.
WARNING: Airbags inflate with considerable
speed and force, which can cause injury. To limit
injuries, ensure that occupants are wearing seat
belts and are correctly seated, with the seat
positioned as far back as possible. The National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
recommends a minimum distance of 10 inches
(25 cm) between an occupant's chest and an
airbag.
Seating and Safety Restraints
Airbags
WARNING: Children should not be seated on the
front passenger seat unless permitted by
regulations in your market region. Follow all
regulations in your region for the appropriate way
to seat a child based on the child's weight, size,
and age. The safest place to seat infants and
young children is in a rear seating position. Seating
an infant or child in a rear-facing child restraint
system on a seat equipped with an operational
airbag can cause serious injury or death.
WARNING: To ensure correct inflation of the side
airbags, maintain an unobstructed gap between an
occupant's torso and the side of Cybertruck.
WARNING: Passengers shouldn't lean their heads
against doors. Doing so can cause injury if a
curtain airbag inflates.
WARNING: Do not allow passengers to obstruct
the operation of an airbag by placing feet, knees
or any other part of the body on or near an airbag.
WARNING: Do not attach or place objects on or
near the front airbags, the side of the front seats,
the headliner at the side of the vehicle, or any
other airbag cover that could interfere with
inflation of an airbag. These include but are not
limited to: steering wheel covers, decals, seat
cushions or pillows, etc. Objects can cause serious
injury if the vehicle is in a collision severe enough
to cause the airbag to inflate.
WARNING: Do not use seat covers on the front
seats. Doing so could restrict deployment of the
seat-mounted airbags if a collision occurs.
WARNING: Following inflation, some airbag
components are hot. Do not touch until they have
cooled.
