(5) Place three old tyres, without wheels, on top of the
tyre secured to the air bag module, and secure all
tyres with ropes (4 locations).
NOTE
The front passenger’s side air bag is larger in capacity
than the driver’s side air bag when deployed. For
this reason, it is necessary to tie up all tyres together
with rope.
(6) At a location as far away from the air bag module
as possible, and from a shielded position, disconnect
the two connected wires from each other, and connect
them to the two terminals of the battery (which has
been removed from the vehicle) to deploy the air
bag.
Caution
1) Before deployment, check carefully to be sure
that no one is nearby.
2) The inflator will be quite hot immediately
following the 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 (P.52B-40) for post-deployment
handling instructions.
3) If the air bag fails to deploy when the
procedures above are followed, do not go near
the module. Contact your local distributor.
(7) After deployment, dispose of the air bag module
according to the Deployed Air Bag Module Disposal
Procedures.
DEPLOYED AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL
PROCEDURES
After deployment, the air bag module should be disposed
of in the same manner as any other scrap parts, adhering
to local laws and/or legislation that may be in force except
that the following points should be carefully noted during
disposal.
1. The inflator will be quite hot immediately following
deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it cool
before attempting to handle it.
2. Do not put water or oil on the air bag after deployment.
