If servic ework is not carried out correctly, the

ted. This could cause you to lose contro lof

WARNING
Modification stoorwork performed incor-
rectly on th efollowin gpartsc an result in the
restraint systems no tfunctionin gasintended:
R ther estraint system, consisting of seat
belt sand their anchorage points ,belt ten-
sioners ,belt force limiters and airbags
R thew iring
R networked electronic systems
Airbags and belt tensioners could fail to
deplo yorbet riggered in an acciden tdespite
the deceleration forc ebeing sufficien ttotrig-
ger the systems, or could be triggered unin-
tentionally. For this reason, never make any
modifications to the restraint systems.
Therefore, you must not tamper with elec-
tronic components or their software.
The seat belts, together with SRS (Supple-
mental Restraint System), are complemen-
tary, co-ordinated restraint systems
(Y page 41). They reduce the risk of injury
in specific, pre-defined types of accident sit-
uations and thereby increase occupant
safety. However, seat belts and airbags gen-
erally do not protect against object spene-
tratin gthe vehicle from the outside. 40
