Cleaning cars with activated airbags

Cleaning cars with activated airbags


When the airbag has been activated, combustion residues are released in the form of dust particles that can contain traces of caustic soda.


Warning

Wear protective glasses and protective gloves in order to avoid the risk of irritation to the skin and eyes when cleaning a car with activated airbags.


Place the airbag in a sealed plastic bag after it has been dismantled. Remember that airbag's gas generator is very hot immediately after an airbag has been activated.

Vacuum clean the car very carefully on all interior surfaces.


Wash your hands using soap and water after handling an activated airbag.
