longer be used. Remove the crash sensor when carrying out
bodywork on the door.
♦ The crash sensor is matched to the volume of air inside the
door: deformation of the door, resulting in a reduction in the
air space in the door, impairs the function of the crash sensor.
♦ Avoid any major soiling of the crash sensor: do not use com‐
pressed air in the vicinity of the crash sensor. Protect the crash
sensor against swarf from filing or drilling (example, during
retrofitting of door speakers). Do not use cavity sealants or
spray oil in the vicinity of the crash sensor.
♦ Protect against heat/cold: avoid heat effects, for example dur‐
ing spray painting or other body shop operations. The crash
sensors must not be exposed to temperatures below -40°C
(for example in non-air-conditioned aircraft holds).
♦ The crash sensor must be protected against humidity during
storage and installation.
For the crash sensor to function properly, it is vital to ensure that
the door forms an effective seal after being fitted. Observe the
following:
♦ All components (e.g. cover, speakers, door trim) must be cor‐
rectly fitted.
♦ The door trim retaining clips seal the system. If necessary, re‐
new retaining clips.
1.10 Additional safety instructions for repair
work on seat occupied recognition for
front passenger airbag deactivation -
country-specific
♦ Basic setting of seat occupied recognition control unit must be
performed after each repair to front passenger seat in which
the seat and/or the backrest cover was »detached« ⇒ Vehicle
diagnostic tester.
♦ The mat of the seat recognition sensor must not be kinked.
♦ A leaky mat must be renewed (repair kit).
♦ The pressure hose of the mat must not be kinked.
♦ The components of the seat occupied recognition (repair kit)
must not fall on hard surfaces, come into contact with grease
or be damaged by pointed/sharp objects.
♦ The mat, the fleece and all other covers must fitted without
folds/creases.
♦ During installation, care must be taken to install seat padding
and seat cover in correct installation position.
♦ Renew all upholstery clips or other clips and ensure they are
positioned correctly on the seat.
♦ The basic setting of the system is only possible between tem‐
peratures of 0°C and +40°C for the airbags 8.R and 9.*. For
airbag 10.* the basic setting of the system is only possible be‐
tween temperatures of 5°C and 35°C.
♦ Ensure that no object is on the seat before and/or during the
basic settings.
♦ The use of additional items on the seat, such as cushions or
similar, impairs the functioning of the seat occupied recogni‐
tion system and can therefore prevent the airbag system from
functioning correctly.
