| Before handling pyrotechnic components (for example to plug in the connector), the person concerned must „discharge static“, for instance by briefly grasping hold of the door striker plate. |
|
| Install in reverse order, paying attention to the following: |
Note | t
| Make sure the connectors are pressed on as far as they will go and are heard to engage. |
| t
| The crash sensor (pressure sensor) will only function properly if the door provides a reliable seal. |
| t
| Ensure correct fitting of all components (e.g. cover panel, loudspeaker, door trim). |
| t
| The door trim retaining clips provide a seal for the system. Replace the retaining clips if necessary. |
| t
| Take care not to trap any wires. |
WARNING | The battery must be connected with the ignition switched on. If pyrotechnic components (airbag, belt tensioner for example) are inexpertly repaired, this may result in unwanted triggering after connecting the battery. There must not be anyone in the vehicle when connecting the battery. |
|
Note | If the airbag warning lamp -K75- indicates a fault following installation, the event recorder must be interrogated, erased and interrogated again → Vehicle diagnostic tester. |
| Notes on installation: For example tightening torques, component replacement → Chapter. |
