Special instructions for the belt tension‐
er
WARNING
♦ The open end of a belt tensioner must never be pointed
towards people.
♦ Handle the seat belt tensioner units with great care when
removing and installing. A high risk and injury potential
exists through rough improper handling of seat belt ten‐
sioner units.
♦ When connecting the seat belt tensioner units, all me‐
chanical parts including the parts of the three point seat
belt, must be correctly secured. If it is not possible to con‐
nect the seat belt tensioner unit because there is not
enough space, the seal belt must be fully rolled up before
connecting. In this case, there is no increased safety risk
if further safety measures are observed and respected.
These include mainly disconnecting the battery and the
electrostatic discharge of the mechanic before connecting
the seat belt tensioner unit.
♦ Depending on the accident, it may be possible that the belt
tensioner was ignited, the belt force limiter, however, was
NOT ignited. These components are handled in the same
way as non-ignited components!

in the original packaging in compliance with the applicable
disposal procedure according to the national legislation!
In case you have any questions, please contact your im‐
porter.
