Handling the air bag module improperly can accidentally deploy the
air bag module, which may seriously injure you. Read the air bag
system service warnings and cautions before handling the air bag
module. (See AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE WARNINGS.) (See AIR
BAG SYSTEM SERVICE CAUTIONS.)
Due to the adoption of 2-step deployment control in the passenger-
side air bag module, depending on the impact force, it is possible
that inflator No.2 might not deploy. In such cases, before disposing
of the air bag module, make sure to follow the inflator deployment
procedures and verify complete deployment of inflators No.1 and 2.
