Note
The airbag systems and belt tensi-
oner control electronics are located
in the centre console area. Do not
put any magnetic objects in this
area.
Do not stick anything on the airbag
covers and do not cover them with
other materials.
Each airbag is triggered only once.
Have deployed airbags replaced by
a CHEVROLET retailer.
Do not make any modifications to
the airbag system as this will invali-
date the vehicle type approval.
Having the steering wheel, the
instrument panel, all panelling parts,
the door seals, the handles and the
seats removed by a CHEVROLET
retailer.
When an air bag deploys, there may be
a loud noise and smoke. These condi-
tions are normal and are not dangerous
but in case it may stimulate skin of the
passenger. If the stimulation is contin-
ued, contact a doctor.
Warning
Never allow children or infants and
pregnant women and the old and the
weak sit in the front passenger seats
fitted with airbags.
Furthermore, do not drive with a baby
seat fitted thereon. In case of an
accident, the impact from the inflated
airbag can cause facial injury or death.
Caution
If the vehicle is impacted by bumps or
objects on unpaved roads or side-
walks, the air bag may inflate.
Drive slowly on the surfaces not
designed for vehicle traffic to prevent
unintended air bag deployment.

FRONT AIRBAG SYSTEM
The front airbag system consists of one
airbag in the steering wheel and one in
the instrument panel on the passenger
side. These can be identified by the
word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system is triggered in
the event of an accident of a certain
severity. The ignition must be on.
The forward movement of the front seat
occupants is retarded, thereby
considerably reducing the risk of injury
to the upper body and head.
