Front Airbag System - Chevrolet 2015 Captiva Owner's Manual

Do not make any modifications to
the airbag system as this will
invalidate the vehicle type approval.
In the event of airbag deployment
have the steering wheel, the
instrument panel, all panelling parts,
the door seals, the handles and the
seats removed by a repairer.
When an air bag deploys, there may
be a loud noise and smoke. These
conditions are normal and are not
dangerous but in case it may
stimulate skin of the passenger.
If the stimulation is continued,
contact a doctor.
Danger
Never allow children or infants
and pregnant women and the old
and the weak sit in the front
passenger seats fitted with
airbags.
Danger (Continued)

baby seat fitted thereon. In case
of an accident, the impact from
the inflated airbag can cause
facial injury or death.
If the vehicle is impacted by
bumps or objects on unpaved
roads or pavements, the air bag
may inflate. Drive slowly on the
surfaces not designed for vehicle
traffic to prevent unintended air
bag deployment.
