0A-4 GENERAL INFORMATION
SERVICING AND HANDLING
WARNING:
Many of service procedures require disconnection of ªAIR
BAGº fuse and all air bag (inflator) module(s) from initiator
circuit to avoid an accidental deployment.
Driver and Passenger Air Bag (Inflator) Modules

For handling and storage of a live air bag (inflator) module,
select a place where the ambient temperature below 65
C
(150
F), without high humidity and away from electric
noise.

When carrying a live air bag (inflator) module, make sure
the bag opening is pointed away from you. In case of an
accidental deployment, the bag will then deploy with mini-
mal chance of injury. Never carry the air bag (inflator)
module by the wires or connector on the underside of the
module. When placing a live air bag (inflator) module on
a bench or other surface, always face the bag up, away
from the surface. As the live passenger air bag (inflator)
module must be placed with its bag (trim cover) facing up,
place it on the workbench with a slit or use the workbench
vise to hold it securely at its lower mounting bracket. This
is necessary so that a free space is provided to allow the
air bag to expand in the unlikely event of accidental de-
ployment. Otherwise, personal injury may result.

Never dispose of live (undeployed) air bag (inflator) mod-
ules (driver and passenger). If disposal is necessary, be
sure to deploy them according to deployment procedures
described in SECTION 10B before disposal.

The air bag (inflator) module immediately after deploy-
ment is very hot. Wait for at least half an hour to cool it off
before proceeding the work.

After an 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 lubri-
cate the bag as it inflates) and by-products of the chemical
reaction. As with many service procedures, gloves and
safety glasses should be worn.
