Cleaning After A Deployment

WARNING: Wear goggles and gloves to avoid the risk of skin and eye irritation when cleaning a car in which the gas generators have been deployed.

- When the airbag or belt tensioner is deployed, talcum powder and combustion residues in the form of dust particles are released. These may contain traces of caustic soda.
- When an airbag or belt tensioner has been removed, place it in a tightly-sealed plastic bag. Remember that the gas generator will be very hot for some time after it has been deployed.
- Thoroughly clean all interior surfaces of the car with a vacuum cleaner.
- Wash your hands with a mild soap solution and lukewarm water after handling a deployed airbag or belt tensioner.
