◆
Pyrotechnic components must be installed immediately after
they are removed from the transport container.
◆
If work is interrupted, the pyrotechnic component must be re-
turned to the transport container.
◆
Pyrotechnic components must not be left unattended.
◆
When connecting the pyrotechnic components in the re-
straint system, only the person performing the work may be
inside the vehicle.
◆
Pyrotechnic components must not be treated with grease,
cleaning agents or similar products.
◆
If the fabric becomes contaminated with substances such as
oil, grease, paint, colour or solvents, the airbag unit must be
replaced.
◆
In addition, pyrotechnic components must not be exposed to
temperatures above 100°C, even for short periods.
2.2
Storing, transporting and disposing of
airbag, belt tensioner and battery dis-
connector units (pyrotechnic compo-
nents)
◆
Storage is subject to the applicable national legislation.
◆
Transportation is subject to national and international laws
governing packaging, naming, labelling and accompanying
documentation.
◆
Pyrotechnic components that have not been ignited must be
returned in the original packaging for appropriate recycling in
line with the applicable national legislation. Contact your im-
porter if you have any questions.

Only pyrotechnic components that have been completely ig-
nited may be disposed of as industrial waste.
WARNING
This does not apply for belt tensioners that operate ac-
cording to the Wankel tensioner principle. Tensioners of
this kind should be handled in the same way as pyrotech-
nic components that have not been ignited (e.g. airbags).
Background: For belt tensioners that operate according
to the Wankel tensioner principle, it is not possible to
check whether all ignition stages have completed using
workshop tools.
