How loud is the inflation?

airbag operates at all harmful?
What should I do if the AIR-BAG warning
light comes on?
The noise of the inflation is certainly loud,
but it is very short-lived and will not damage
your hearing. For a short time afterwards
you could experience a buzzing noise in
your ears.
Most people who have experienced it
cannot remember the noise of the inflation
at all - all they remember is the noise of the
crash.
Most people who have remained in a car
with little or no ventilation for several min-
utes complained only of minor irritation of
the throatandeyes.Avoid asfar aspossible
getting dust on your skin as there is a risk of
skin irritation.
If the warning lightis on, it means that a fault
has been detected in the system. The
airbag cannot be relied on to operate as
intended and it might even be activated
erroneously. You should therefore take the
car toan authorizedSaab dealer assoon as
possible.
If this trouble persists, you should consult a
doctor.
If you suffer from asthma, the incident may
bring on an attack,in whichcaseyoushould
follow the normal procedure advised by
your doctor. It is advisable to consult a
doctor afterwards.
WARNING
Can you still use a child seat in the front if a
passenger airbag is installed?
Definitely not!
Children 12 and under can be injured or
killed by the airbag.
The BACK SEAT is the SAFEST place for
children.
When an airbag is inflated there is dust in
the air.
Because the dust/smoke can, in certain
cases, cause irritation to the skin, the fol-
lowing precautions should be taken:
• As soon as possible, wash any
exposed skin using a mild soap and
water.
NEVER put a child seat in the front.
•
If there is irritation of the eyes, flush
them liberally with clean water for at
least 20 minutes.
