Seat belts 157
Using the system Safety Driving Tips General Maintenance Breakdown assistance Technical Data
The belt tensioners are not activated in case of minor frontal and rear-end colli-
sions, in the case of vehicle rollover or accidents, through which no long delays are
incurred to the vehicle. In the case of a side collision, only the belt tensioner of the
front seat on the side on which the collision takes place is deployed.
WARNING
• Any work on the system including removal and installation 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.
