Component exchange after airbag triggering

The following components must be removed and replaced after the airbag system is triggered:

After triggering of the airbag unit on the drivers side:
- Contact unit
- Airbag unit, driver's side

After triggering of the airbag unit on the passengers side:
- Airbag unit, passenger's side
- Triggering unit after the third time the airbag is triggered

After triggering of the side airbag unit:
- Side airbag unit
- Sensor for the side airbag unit after the third time the side airbag is triggered

After triggering the seat-belt tensioner
After triggering of the belt tensioner, driver's, passenger's and/or rear unit.
After triggering one or more airbag units ( driver's, passenger's head and/or side airbag)
- All belt tensioner units.

Note:
Because it is difficult to visually determine if one or more belt tensioners has been triggered, check the following points:
- Using the PIWIS Tester 9718, read out the fault memory.
- Check plug connection on the belt tensioner for damage.
- Pull out the belt strap as far as possible and check for wear.
- Perform a function test on the automatic belt device.
