c) Fill plastic reservoir in fixture (special tool) with water or
sand. This is necessary to provide sufficient stabilization of
the fixture during deployment.
d) Attach the passenger air bag (inflator) module in the fixture
(special tool) using mounting attachment, hold-down bolts
and nuts and M8 bolts and nuts (3).
Securely hand-tighten all fastener prior to deployment.
[In case of seat belt pretensioner]
a) Pull out the webbing (2) fully as shown in the figure and cut
it at the root of the pretensioner (retractor assembly) (1) as
shown in the figure.
b) Clear a space on the ground about 185 cm (6 ft) (4) in
diameter where the seat belt pretensioner (retractor assem-
bly) (1) is to be activated. A paved, outdoor location where
there is no activity is preferred. If an outdoor location is not
available, a space on the shop floor where there is no activ-
ity and sufficient ventilation is recommended.
Ensure no loose or flammable objects are within the activa-
tion area.
c) Place the seat belt pretensioner (retractor assembly) (1) as
shown in the figure on the ground in the space just cleared. CAUTION:
Be sure to use the following bolt and nut for fixing
passenger air bag (inflator) module to mounting
attachment.

vehicle battery) (2) to immediately deploy/activate the air
bag or seat belt pretensioner.
14) Disconnect the deployment harness from power source (12V
vehicle battery) (2) and short (3) the two deployment har-
ness leads together by fully seating one banana plug into the
other.
15) In the unlikely event that the air bag (inflator) module or seat
belt pretensioner did not deploy/activate after following these
procedures, proceed immediately with Steps 20) through
23). If the air bag (inflator) module or the seat belt preten-
sioner did deploy/activate, proceed with Steps 16) through
19).
16) Put on a pair of shop gloves to protect your hands from pos-
sible irritation and heat when handling the deployed air bag
(inflator) module and the activated seat belt pretensioner.
17) Disconnect the deployment harness from the air bag (infla-
tor) module and the seat belt pretensioner as soon after
deployment/activation as possible.

possible contact with the hot air bag (inflator) module and
seat belt pretentioner. The deployment harness are
designed to be reused. They should, however, be inspected
for damage after each deployment/activation and replaced it
if necessary. WARNING:
After deployment/activation, the metal surfaces of the
air bag (inflator) module and the seat belt pretensioner
will be very hot. Do not touch the metal areas of them
for about 30 minutes after deployment/activation.
Do not place the deployed air bag (inflator) module and
the activated seat belt pretensioner near any flamma-
ble objects.
Do not apply water, oil, etc. to deployed air bag (infla-
tor) module and activated seat belt pretensioner.
If the deployed air bag (inflator) module and the acti-
vated seat belt pretensioner must be moved before it is
cool, wear gloves and handle it by using nonmetal
material such as the air bag, webbing and vinyl trim.
Failure to follow procedures may result in fire or per-
sonal injury.

tion of the vehicle’s glass or interior.
13) Notify all people in the immediate area that you intend to
deploy the air bag (inflator) module or activate the seat belt
pretensioner.
.
NOTE:
When the air bag deploys and the pretensioner acti-
vates, 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 or to activate the seat belt preten-
sioner and suitable ear protection should be worn.
After the air bag (inflator) module has been deployed,
the surface of the air bag may contain a powdery resi-
due. This powder consists primarily of cornstarch
(used to lubricate the bag as it inflates) and by-prod-
ucts of the chemical reaction.
WARNING:
After deployment/activation, the metal surfaces of the
air bag (inflator) module and the seat belt pretensioner
will be very hot. Do not touch the metal areas of them
for about 30 minutes after deployment/activation.

DEPLOYED AIR BAG (INFLATOR) MODULE
AND ACTIVATED SEAT BELT PRETEN-
SIONER DISPOSAL
Deployed air bag (inflator) module and the activated seat belt pre-
tensioner can be disposed of through normal refuse channels just
like any other parts. For their disposal, however, following points
should be noted.
The air bag (inflator) module and the seat belt pretensioner
immediately after deployment/activation is very hot. Wait for
30 minutes to cool it off before handling it.
Never apply water, oil, etc. to deployed air bag (inflator)
module and the activated seat belt pretensioner to cool it off
and be careful so that water, oil etc. does not get on the
deployed air bag (inflator) module and the activated seat belt
pretensioner.
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 lubricate the
bag as it inflates) and by-products of the chemical reaction.
As with many service procedures, you should wear gloves
and safety glasses.
When disposing of the deployed air bag (inflator) module
and the activated seat belt pretensioner, be sure to seal it in
a vinyl bag.
When air bag (inflator) module and seat belt pretensioner
have been deployed/activated inside the vehicle which is
going to be scrapped, leave them as installed to the vehicle.
Be sure to wash your hands with mild soap and water after
handling it. WARNING:
Failure to follow proper air bag (inflator) module and seat
belt pretensioner disposal procedures can result in air
bag deployment and pretensioner activation which may
cause personal injury. The undeployed air bag (inflator)
module and the inactivated seat belt pretensioner must
not be disposed of through normal refuse channels.
The undeployed air bag (inflator) module and the inacti-
vated seat belt pretensioner contains substances that
can cause severe illness or personal injury if the sealed
container is damaged during disposal.
