40 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
WARNING!
Airbag and belt tensioners are designed to func-
tion on a one-time-only basis. An airbag or belt
tensioner that was activated must be replaced.
An airbag system component integrated in the
steering wheel gets hot after the airbag has
inflated. Do not touch.
No modifications of any kind may be made to any
components or wiring of the restraint system.
Keep area between airbag and occupants free of
objects (e.g. packages, purses, umbrellas, etc.).
In addition, through improper work there is the
risk of rendering the restraint system inoperative.
Work on the restraint system must therefore only
be performed by an authorized Sprinter Dealer.
WARNING!
When discarding of the airbag unit or emergency
tensioning retractor, you must follow our safety
instructions. These instructions are available at
your Sprinter Dealer.
Given the considerable deployment speed and the
textile structure of the airbag, there is the possibility
of injuries and even death resulting from being
positioned too close to the airbag when it deploys.
Do not seat children less than 5 feet tall or 12 years
and under in the front. The back seat is the safest
place for children. If the vehicle is not equipped with
a back seat, children less than 5 feet tall or 12 years
and under must never ride in this vehicle. Never place
an infant seat on the front passenger seat.
Children less than 5 feet tall or 12 years and under
require a special restraint system for protection in
the event of an accident as they may be too small
to wear seat belts properly.
