Seat Belts
Front seat belt tensioner, removing and
installing
- Disconnect battery negative (-) cable in trunk.
The
front seat belt loclts are equipped with pyrotechnic (ex-
plosive charge) automatic tensioners. These tensioners are
designed to automatically retract and tension the seat belt by
55 mm (approximately 2 inches) in the event of an accident.
CAUTION-
Prior to disconnecting the battery, read the battery discon-
nection cautions given in
001 General Warnings and Cau-
tions.
WARNING-
Pyrotechnic seat belt tensioners are powerful devices and
should be handled with extreme care. Incorrect handling
can trigger the tensioner and cause injury
BMW recommends that all repair or replacement work
on pyrotechnic devices must be carried out by a quali-
fied BMW technician.
Be sure to disconnect the battery and wait
5 seconds
before attempting to work on pyrotechnic devices.
Pyrotechnic devices cannot be repaired. Always re-
place them.
Never treat pyrotechnic components with cleaning
agents or grease.
- Do not expose pyrotechnic components to tempera-
tures above
75% (167°F).
Pyrotechnic components can only be tested electrically
when installedusing the
BMWService Tester (DISplus,
GTI, or MoDiC).
Do not fire a pyrotechnic gas generatorprior to dispos-
al. It must be fired by a special disposal company or
shipped
back to BMW in the packaging of the new com-
ponent.
During body straightening and welding with an electric
arc welder, always disconnect the battery and the con-
nection to the pyrotechnic gas generators.
