Installing
  WARNING
  •   Observe safety instructions for pyrotechnic components → Chapter.
  •   Before handling pyrotechnic components (e.g. connecting the electrical connector), the person handling them must ensure that he/she is “electrically discharged”. To do this e.g. briefly touch the door striker plate.
–  Push connector -1- onto crash sensor until it engages audibly -arrow-.
–  Press in connector lock -2- to lock the connector.
Further installation is carried out in reverse order of removal. Observe the following:
  Note
  •   Ensure that the electrical connectors are pushed fully onto stop and engage audibly.
