When triggered the airbags inflate
within milliseconds. They also deflate

during the collision.
Seats, restraints
Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an explo-
sive manner.
The driver should sit back as far as
possible while still maintaining con-
trol of the vehicle. If you are sitting too
close to the airbag, it can cause death
or serious injury when it inflates.
For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, all occupants includ-
ing the driver should always wear
their seat belts to minimize the risk of
severe injury or death in the event of a
crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the airbag while the vehicle is
in motion.
The air bag may cause facial or body
scratch, injury by broken glasses or
getting a burn by explosion while air
bag is deployed.
