8B-113 Air Bag System:
12) Notify all people in immediate area that you intend to
deploy / activate air bag (inflator) module or seat belt
pretensioner.
NOTE
• When air bag (inflator) module deploys and
seat belt pretensioner activates, rapid gas
expansion will create substantial report.
Wear suitable ear protection. Notify all
people in immediate area that you intend
to deploy air bag (inflator) module or
activate seat belt pretensioner and suitable
ear protection should be worn.
• When driver air bag (inflator) module
deploys, driver air bag (inflator) module
may jump about 30 cm (1 ft) vertically. This
is normal reaction to force of rapid gas
expansion inside of drive air bag (inflator)
module.
• After air bag (inflator) module has been
deployed, surface of air bag (inflator) may
contain powdery residue. This powder
consists primarily of cornstarch (used to
lubricate bag (inflator) as it inflates) and by
products of chemical reaction.
WARNING
!
• Do not place deployed air bag (inflator)
module and activated seat belt
pretensioner near any flammable objects.
• Do not apply water, oil, etc. to deployed air
bag (inflator) module and activated seat
belt pretensioner.
• Wait for about 30 minutes before touching
any metal surface of air bag (inflater)
module or seat belt pretensioner module.
Disregarding these precautions may cause
fire or personal injury.
Failure to follow procedures may result in fire
or personal injury.
13) Separate two banana plugs (1) on deployment
harness.
14) Connect deployment harness to 12 volts vehicle
battery (2). This will immediately deploy or activate
air bag (inflator) module or seat belt pretensioner.
15) Disconnect deployment harness from 12 volts
vehicle battery (2) and short two deployment
harness leads together by fully seating one banana
plug into the other.
16) In the unlikely event that air bag (inflator) module or
seat belt pretensioner did not deploy / activate after
following these procedures, proceed immediately
with Step 22) through 25). If air bag (inflator) module
or seat belt pretensioner did deploy or activate,
proceed with Steps 18) through 21).
17) Put on pair of shop gloves to protect your hands from
possible irritation and heat when handling deployed
air bag (inflator) module or activated seat belt
pretensioner.
18) Disconnect adapter cable (special tool) from air bag
(inflator) module or seat belt pretensioner as soon as
possible. This will prevent adapter cable (special
tool) from damage due to possible contact with hot
air bag (inflator) module or hot seat belt
pretensioner.
19) Check adapter cable as follows.
• For air bag (inflator) module
Be sure to check air bag (inflator) module adapter
cable (special tool) for damage after deployment
and replace it with new adapter cable (special
tool), if it is damaged.
• For seat belt pretensioner
Be sure to check seat belt pretensioner adapter
cable (special tool) for damage after seat belt
pretensioner is activated. Replace it with spare
connector (special tool) or new adapter, if
necessary.
20) Dispose of deployed air bag (inflator) module (1) or
activated seat belt pretensioner (2) through normal
refuse channels after it has cooled for at least 30
minutes and tightly seal air bag (inflator) module (1)
or seat belt pretensioner (2) in strong vinyl bag.
Refer to "Deployed Air Bag (Inflator) Module and
Activated Seat Belt Pretensioner Disposal" for
