Driver Air Bag Assembly
Service Precautions
WARNING: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE
FOLLOWED WHEN HANDLING A DEPLOYED AI
R
BAG ASSEMBLY. AFTER DEPLOYMENT, THE AIR
BAG ASSEMBLY SURFACE MAY CONTAIN A
SMALL AMOUNT OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE, A BY–
PRODUCT OF THE DEPLOYMENT REACTION,
THAT IS IRRITATING TO THE SKIN AND EYES.
MOST OF THE POWER ON THE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY IS HARMLESS. AS A PRECAUTION,
WEAR GLOVES AND SAFETY GLASSES WHEN
HANDLING A DEPLOYED AIR BAG ASSEMBLY,
AND WASH YOUR HANDS WITH MILD SOAP AND
WATER AFTERWARDS.
WARNING: WHEN CARRYING A LIVE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY, MAKE SURE THE BAG AND TRIM
COVER ARE POINTED AWAY FROM YOU. NEVE
R
CARRY AIR BAG ASSEMBLY BY THE WIRES OR
CONNECTOR ON THE UNDERSIDE OF MODULE.
IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT,
THE BAG WILL THEN DEPLOY WITH MINIMAL
CHANCE OF INJURY. WHEN PLACING ALIVE AI
R
BAG ASSEMBLY ON A BENCH OR OTHER
SURFACE, ALWAYS FACE BAG AND TRIM COVER
UP, AWAY FROM THE SURFACE. NEVER REST A
STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY ON THE
STEERING WHEEL WITH THE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY FACE DOWN AND COLUMN
VERTICAL. THIS IS NECESSARY SO THAT A FREE
SPACE IS PROVIDED TO ALLOW THE AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY TO EXPAND IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT
OF ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT. OTHERWISE,
PERSONAL INJURY COULD RESULT.
NOTE: In the event deployment has occurred, inspec
t
coil assembly wire for any signs of scorching, melting
or any other damage due to excessive heat. If the coil
has been damaged, replace it.
Removal
1. Disable the SRS (Refer to “Disabling the SRS” in
this section).
