regarding the side airbag
  • Seat covers: seats fitted with airbags require covers specific to your vehicle. Consult a brand Representative to find out whether such covers are available. Using any other cover (or covers designed for another vehicle) could affect the correct operation of these airbags and compromise your safety.
  • Do not place any accessory, object or even an animal between the seatback, the door and the interior trim. Also do not cover the seatback with objects such as clothing or accessories. This could affect the correct operation of the airbag or cause injury when it deploys.
  • Any disassembly or modification of the seat and interior trim is prohibited, except by authorised Brand Network personnel.
  • The space between the rear seat backrest and the trim is the airbag deployment zone: do not insert any objects into it.
