Information
Country-specific statutory regulations and legislation based on them which go beyond these instructions must always be observed and take precedence over these instructions!
- Airbag units are pyrotechnical items and can pose an environmental hazard!
- For this reason, non-ignited airbag units or entire vehicles must not be disposed of as normal scrap, refuse or in other final storage facilities!
- If the vehicle suffered fire damage which caused one or several airbags or belt tensioners to be triggered, additional ignition with the adapter cable must be carried out in order to ensure that only parts without pyrotechnical contents are scrapped!
- In the case of airbag units which cannot be ignited or if the conditions for safe ignition are insufficient, always return the airbag units to Porsche or the respective importer in their original packaging!
