Pyrotechnical components comprise:
◆ Airbag units
◆ Belt tensioners
◆ Belt force limiters
◆ Battery disconnecting elements
General
◆ Testing, installation and maintenance tasks must only be
carried out by trained personnel.
◆ There are no replacement intervals for airbag units.
◆ Do not check using circuit tester, voltmeter, or ohmmeter un-
der any circumstances.
◆ Pyrotechnic components must only be checked when installed and using ⇒ vehicle diagnostic testers that have been
approved by the manufacturer.
◆ When working on pyrotechnic components and the airbag
control unit -J234-, the battery earth wire must be disconnected when the IGNITION is SWITCHED ON.
ative terminal must subsequently be covered.
◆ You must wait ten seconds after the battery -A- has been
disconnected.
◆ The battery -A- must be connected when the IGNITION is
SWITCHED ON. There must not be anybody inside the vehicle during this process. Exception: vehicles with battery -Alocated inside the vehicle. Do not sit within the airbag and
seat belt deployment range.
◆ Observe the appropriate steps after connecting the battery⇒ Page 21.
◆ Before performing any work on pyrotechnic components in
the restraint system, e.g. before disconnecting the electrical
connector, the mechanic carrying out the task must discharge any static electricity
performed by touching earthed metal parts, e.g. by briefly
touching the door striker plate.

◆ Wash hands after touching ignited pyrotechnical components of the restraint system.
◆ Pyrotechnical components must neither be opened nor repaired. New parts must always be used (risk of injury).
◆ Pyrotechnic components that have fallen onto a hard surface
or that show any sign of damage must not be installed.

2 Safety instructions for pyrotechnical, electrical and mechanical components of the restraint system
◆ Pyrotechnic components must be installed immediately after
they are removed from the transport container.
◆ If work is interrupted, the pyrotechnic component must be returned 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.
2.2Storing, transporting and disposing of
airbag, belt tensioner and battery disconnector units (pyrotechnic components)
Edition 01
◆ 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 importer if you have any questions.
◆ Only pyrotechnic components that have been completely ignited may be disposed of as industrial waste.
WARNING
This does not apply for belt tensioners that operate according to the Wankel tensioner principle. Tensioners of
this kind should be handled in the same way as pyrotechnic 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.
