Front Three-Point Seat Belt, Removing And Installing: Installing
- Follow all safety precautions when working with pyrotechnic components. Refer to SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH PYROTECHNIC COMPONENTS .
- Before handling pyrotechnic components (for example, connecting a connector), the person handling it must "discharge static electricity". For example, this can be done by briefly touching the door striker.
Install in reverse order of removal and note the following:
-- If parts of the seat belt system are removed due to an accident, replace the belt system bolts.
Make sure the connectors are installed all the way and engage audibly.
-- Insert the automatic belt retractor with the anti-twist mechanism -1- in the mount -2- -arrow- and tighten the bolt.
The ignition must be on when connecting the battery. If pyrotechnic components (for example, airbag, belt tensioner) are not repaired correctly, they may deploy unintentionally after connecting battery. There must not be anyone in the vehicle interior when connecting the battery.
When working on vehicles with the ignition switched on or with ready mode activated, there is a risk of the engine starting unexpectedly and of gas poisoning in enclosed areas. Risk of body parts and/or clothing being pinched or pulled.
Perform the following before switching on the ignition:
- Move the selector lever into P.
- Activate the parking brake.
- Turn off the ignition.
- Open the hood
- Connect the charger, such as the :VAS 5095A to the jump start point on the 12 V vehicle electrical system.
- Switching on the ignition
-- Connect the battery ground cable with the ignition switched on. Refer to BATTERY .
