-   Remove all loose objects beforehand from the expansion area of the airbag.

 

-   Deployment with the doors closed and side windows open.

 

-   Deployment only on suitable empty ground.

 

-   Only use the appropriate igniting unit (Special Service Tool KM-799).

 

-   Bystanders who may be affected should be informed of the noise level.

 

-   Take up a position in front of the vehicle; this also applies to other persons involved.

 

-   Maintain a safe distance of approx. 10 m/ 10 yards from the vehicle on deployment.

 

-   Connect the voltage source last.

 

-   Non-deployed airbag units must never be disposed of with "normal" refuse.
