WARNING
■
The key cannot be inserted into the key switch while driving. Shocks can
cause the key to turn in the slot and trigger the airbag! The airbag could be
triggered unexpectedly in an accident - it may result in injury or death!
■
The driver is responsible for whether the airbag is switched on or switch-
ed off.
■
Only switch off the airbag when the ignition is switched off! Otherwise a
fault can occur in the system for deactivating the airbag.
■
If the warning light is flashing, the front passenger airbag will not be
deployed in an accident! Have the airbag system checked by a specialist ga-
rage immediately.
CAUTION
An insufficiently folded out key bit can damage the key switch!
