Switch off ignition and remove ignition key or handheld transmitter. There must not be any voltage supply (e.g. battery charger) connected to the external power supply / jump-lead starting terminals. Disconnect the battery and insulate the ground strap so that all contact with a ground carrier is avoided. Wait 1 minute after disconnecting the battery. Only disconnect the connector from the triggering unit after the waiting time has elapsed. Make sure that no foreign objects are present in front of the airbag unit during installation. Replace damaged parts at the time of removal. Always position airbag units so that the blow-out opening is facing upwards, e.g. crest on driver’s airbag. Do not place any objects on the airbag units. If removed for an extended period, the airbag units must be stored in a safe place. Airbag units must not come into contact with grease, oil, cleaning agents, liquids or similar substances. Do not expose airbag units to temperatures of more than 90 °C. Do not remove the short-circuit spring on the plug contacts. Triggering and preparations may only be carried out by skilled staff, supervised by a second responsible person. Before disposal, the airbag unit must be rendered harmless by triggering it electrically while observing all precautionary measures, thereby preventing it from being used incorrectly.
