z After airbags deflate, you may notice a
burning smell, smoke and white powder
in the interior, which is normal. Although
they may cause skin or eye irritation,
these substances are non-toxic.
z Hazard warning lamps may flash and
locked doors may be unlocked
automatically when airbags deploy 3.
z The speeds, directions of movement and
deformation properties of the vehicles,
and the properties of the obstacle
concerned, determine the severity of the
accident and triggering of the airbags.
z The degree of damage to your vehicle
and the resulting repair costs alone are
not indicative that the criteria for
triggering of the airbags were met.
z Do not perform any modifications to the
components of the airbag systems, as
this will render the vehicle unroadworthy.
