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.
