(2) At a location as far away from the air bag module as
possible, and from a shielded position, if possible, discon-
nect the two connected wires from each other and connect
them to the two terminals of the battery (removed from
the vehicle) to deploy the air bag.
Caution
1. Before deployment, check carefully .to be sure
that no one is nearby, because deployment will
cause the air bag module to jump upward about
1.5 to 3 meters (about 5 to 10 feet) into the air.
2. The inflator will be quite hot immediately following
deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow
it to cool before attempting to handle it.
Although not poisonous, do not inhale gas from
air bag deployment. See Deployed Air Bag Module
Disposal Procedures (as shown below) for post-
deployment handling instructions.
3. If the air bag module fails to deploy when the
procedures above are followed, do not near the
module. Contact your local distributor.
DEPLOYED AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL
After deployment, the air bag module should be disposed
of in the same manner as any other scrap parts, except that
the following points should be carefully noted during disposal.
(1) The inflator will be quite hot immediately following deploy-
ment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it to cool before
attempting to handle it.
(2) Do not put water or oil on the air bag after deployment.
(3) There may be, adhered to the deployed air bag module,
material that could irritate the eyes and/or skin, so wear
gloves and safety glasses when handling a deployed
air bag module. IF DESPITE THESE PRECAUTIONS,
THE MATERIAL DOES, GET INTO THE EYES OR ON
THE SKIN, IMMEDIATELY RINSE THE AFFECTED AREA
WITH A LARGE AMOUNT OF CLEAN WATER.
IF ANY IRRITATION DEVELOPS, SEEK MEDICAL
ATTENTION.
(4) Tightly seal the air bag module in a strong vinyl bag
for disposal.
(5) After deployment, be sure to wash hands in water.
