deployment harness connector and lock connector with lock le-
ver.
12) Notify all people in the immediate area that you intend to deploy
the air bag (inflator) module.
NOTE:

When the air bag deploys, the rapid gas expansion will
create a substantial report. Wear suitable ear protection.
Notify all people in the immediate area that you intend to
deploy the air bag (inflator) module and suitable ear
protection should be worn.

When the air bag deploys, the driver air bag (inflator)
module may jump about 30 cm (1 ft) vertically. This is a
normal reaction of the driver air bag (inflator) module to
the force of the rapid gas expansion inside the air bag.

After the air bag (inflator) module has been deployed, the
surface of the air bag may contain a powdery residue.
This powder consists primarily of cornstarch (used to lu-
bricate the bag as it inflates) and byproducts of the
chemical reaction.
