- Airbag unit, driver's side
- Triggering unit after the third time the airbag is triggered
After triggering of the airbag unit on the passengers side:

Head airbag unit, door:
- Head airbag unit.
- Check door unit carrier for deformation and replace if necessary.
- Sensor for the side airbag unit after the third time the side airbag is triggered.
Belt tensioner units:
- All belt tensioner units.
Because it is difficult to visually determine if one or more belt tensioners has been triggered, check the following points:
- Using the PIWIS Tester 9718, read out the fault memory.
- Check plug connection on the belt tensioner for damage.
- Pull out the belt strap as far as possible and check for wear.
- Perform a function test on the automatic belt device.
