NOTE:

After the seat-belt tensioners have been triggered, they must be replaced. The fault can be read out with the PIWIS Tester P 9718. Observe direction of travel.
If the seat-belt tensioner has been triggered, cut through the belt strap before removing the seat-belt tensioner. This ensures that the defective automatic belt device is not installed again.
It is necessary to make sure that the negative terminal of the battery is disconnected.
