Caution: Never attempt to disassemble or repair the seat belt pretensioner. If it is faulty, replace it. Use caution when handling the seat belt with pretensioner. Do not subject it to impact, drop it, bring it close to strong magnets, or allow it to come into contact with water, grease, or oil. If dents, cracks or deformation are found, always replace it with a new one. Do not place any foreign objects on the pretensioner. The pretensioner must not be heated above 90°C. After the pretensioner has been triggered, replace it with a new one. When handling a deployed pretensioner, wear protective glasses and gloves. If it is necessary to dispose of a seat belt with a pretensioner that has not been activated, the pretensioner must first be discharged.
