l Seats
Seat repair and component replacement is possible once the
seat has been removed from the vehicle.
Before servicing front seats read safety regulations on han-
dling
airbag modules and pyrotechnic seatbelt tensioners.
See
720 Seat belts and 721 Airbag system (SRS).
WARNING-
. The front seats are equipped with pyrotechnic seat belt
tensioners. These tensioners are powerful devices and
should be handled with exfreme care. Incorrect handling
can trigger off the tensioner and cause injury.
BMW recommends that all repair or replacement
worlc
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.
During body straightening and welding with an electric
arc welder, always disconnect the battery and the con-
nection to the pyrotechnic gas generators.
