Cars produced since 09.1998 may be equipped with a side airbag built into the sides of the driver's and front passenger's seat backs. Seats with a side airbag are marked with white stripes with the red inscription "AIRBAG". When the side airbag is deployed, the seat upholstery rips along the seam and releases the airbag. Observe safety precautions when handling SRS system components. When the side airbag is deployed, the front seat is completely replaced (work of the service station).
