Cleaning a car after airbag has been triggered

Cleaning a car after airbag has been triggered


When the airbag has been triggered, combustion residue is released in the form of dust particles which may contain traces of caustic soda.


Warning

Wear goggles and protective gloves to avoid the risk of eye and skin irritation when cleaning a car in which the airbag has been triggered.


Put the airbag envelope in a tight-sealing plastic bag when it has been removed. Remember that the airbag's gas generator will be extremely hot immediately after the airbag has detonated.

Thoroughly clean all interior surfaces of the car with a vacuum cleaner.


Wash your hands with soap and water after handling a detonated airbag.
