Scrapping or working on airbags

and belt pretensioners

Frequently asked questions on func-

tion of airbags

Do you still need to wear a

safety b

elt if

airbags are fitted?

Yes, always! The airbag merely supple-

ments the car’s normal safety system.

Moreover, the airbag will only be actuated in

a moderate to severe frontal, or near-frontal

crash, which means, of course, that it

provides no protection in minor frontal

crashes, major rear-end or side-on crashes

or if the car rolls over.

The safety belts help reduce the chance of

the car occupants from being thrown around

and injured or killed inside the car.

But they also ensure that, if a crash occurs

in which the airbags are inflated, the airbag

will make the optimum contact with the

occupant, i.e. square on from the front. If the

occupant meets the airbag in an offset posi-

tion, the protection afforded will be reduced.

In addition, airbags provide no protection

against a secondary impact occurring in the

same incident. So there is no doubt about

the benefit of wearing safety belts at all

times.

Do not sit too close to the airbag: it needs

room to inflate.

The airbag inflates very quickly and power-

fully in order to protect an adult person,

before they are thrown forward, in a serious

frontal crash.

How do I position the seat to leave room for

the airbag to inflate?

Don’t have your seat too far forward.

Recline the seat back to increase the

distance between you and the airbag. For

short drivers, special accessory pedal

extensions are available through your Saab

dealer.

Airbags inflate extremely rapidly and with

great force – to be fast enough to protect an

adult in the seat.

When do the front airbags inflate?

The airbag will only be inflated under certain

predetermined conditions in a moderate to

severe frontal, or near-frontal crash,

depending on such factors as the force and

angle of the impact, the speed of the car on

impact, and the resistance to deformation of

the impacting object.

The airbag can only be activated once in the

same incident.

Do not attempt to drive the car after an

airbag has been inflated, even if it is possi-

ble.

WARNING

• Under no circumstances should any

modifications be made that affect the

steering wheel or the airbag’s electri-

cal circuitry.

• Before starting any welding work on

the car, always disconnect the nega-

tive (–) battery lead and cover the

conductor.

• Airbags and belt pretensioners must

be deployed under controlled condi-

tions before the car is scrapped or any

of the system’s components are

removed. Airbags or belt pretension-

ers that have been deployed as a

result of a crash must be replaced by

new ones.

• Airbag-system components must

never be transferred for use in another

vehicle.

• All work involving the scrapping or

replacement of airbags or belt preten-

sioners must only be carried out by

knowledgeable personnel.
