4.7.1 Accident involving triggering of airbag
Following the renewal of airbag units or the airbag control unit,
the labels (only tear-off strips) of the new components must be
stuck onto the "Registry note 2 for Airbag Systems". For registra‐
tion, the "Registry note 2 for Airbag Systems" must be sent on to
the responsible distribution centre or importer.
The "Registry note 2 for Airbag Systems" can be printed out of
the "Technical Service Handbook":

should be checked separately.
