Belt tensioners are not activated in the event of minor frontal collisions, side and
rear-end collisions, in the case of a rollover and also not in accidents in which no
major forces are produced from the front.
WARNING
Any work on the belt tightener system, including removal and installa-
tion of system components because of other repair work, must only be
carried out by a specialist garage.
The protective function of the system is only adequate for a single acci-
dent. If the belt tensioners have been deployed, it is then necessary to
replace the entire system.
The Owner's Manual must also be handed over to the new owner if the
vehicle is sold.
Note
Smoke is generated when the belt tensioners are deployed. This is not an indi-
cation of a fire in the vehicle.
It is essential to pay attention to relevant safety regulations if the vehicle or indi-
vidual parts of the system are scrapped. Specialist garages are familiar with these
regulations and will be able to provide you with detailed information in this respect.
When disposing of vehicle or parts of the system, it is important to comply with
the national legal requirements.
