Noise and smoke
When the air bags inflate, they make
a loud noise, leaving smoke and
powder inside the vehicle. This is
normal and is a result of the ignition
of the air bag inflator.
After the air bag inflates, you may
feel substantial discomfort in breath-
ing due to the contact of your chest
with both the seat belt and the air
bag, as well as due to the inhaled
smoke and powder.
Immediately
open the doors/windows after the
inflation of the air bag in order to
reduce discomfort and prevent a
prolonged exposure to the smoke
and powder.
Though the smoke and powder are
non-toxic, they may cause skin irrita-
tion (for eyes, nose and throat, etc).
In this case, immediately wash the
irritated area with cold water. Consult
a doctor, if the symptom persists.
Do not install a child restraint
on the front passenger seat
When the air bags deploy, the
air bag components inside the
steering wheel and/or the
instrument cluster become
extremely hot. To prevent injury,
do not touch the air bag compo-
nents, immediately after an air
bag inflates.
