Disposal of pyrotechnic belt tensioners
t  Non-ignited pyrotechnic components (such as airbags, seat belts, pyrotechnic battery circuit breakers) must be disposed of in original packaging and in accordance with national regulations. In cases of doubt, contact the appropriate Regional Sales Centre or importer.
t  Pyrotechnic components ignited in an accident can be disposed of together with commercial refuse.
  WARNING
This does not apply to belt tensioners which are Wankel-powered. These must be treated in the same manner as non-ignited pyrotechnic components (for example airbags, seat belts, pyrotechnic battery isolators). Reason: The workshop does not have the means to check whether the Wankel-type belt tensioners have ignited fully (in all ignition stages).
