Disposal of Air Bag Module and Seat Belt Pre-
tensioner
IBefore disposing of air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner,
or vehicles equipped with such systems, deploy the systems.
If such systems have already been deployed due to an
accident, dispose of them as indicated in ªDISPOSING OF AIR
BAG MODULE AND SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº (RS-27).
I When deploying the air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner,
always use the Special Service Tool; Deployment tool
KV99106400.
I When deploying the air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner,
stand at least 5 m (16 ft) away from the deployment component.
I When deploying air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner, a
fairly loud noise is made, followed by smoke being released.
The smoke is not poisonous, however, be careful not to inhale
smoke since it irritates the throat and can cause choking.
I Always activate one air bag module at a time.
I Due to heat, leave air bag module unattended for more than 30
minutes after deployment. Also leave seat belt pre-tensioner
unattended for move than 10 minutes after deployment.
I Be sure to wear gloves when handling a deployed air bag
module and seat belt pre-tensioner.
I Never apply water to the deployed air bag module and seat belt
pre-tensioner.
I Wash your hands clean after finishing work.
I Place the vehicle outdoors with an open space of at least 6 m
(20 ft) on all sides when deploying air bag module and seat belt
pre-tensioner while mounted in vehicle.
I Use a voltmeter to make sure the vehicle battery is fully
charged.
I Do not dispose of the air bag module and seat belt pre-ten-
sioner un-deployed.
CHECKING DEPLOYMENT TOOL
Connecting to Battery
IPlace the vehicle outdoors with an open space of at least 6 m
(20 ft) on all sides.
I Use a voltmeter to make sure the vehicle battery is fully
charged.
CAUTION:
The battery must show voltage of 9.6V or more.
Remove the battery from the vehicle and place it on dry wood
blocks approximately 5 m (16 ft) away from the vehicle.

and black clip to negative terminal.
Make sure the polarity is correct. The right side lamp in the
tool, marked ªdeployment tool powerº, should glow with a
green light. If the right side lamp glows red, reverse the con-
nections to the battery.
Deployment Tool Check
Press the deployment tool switch to the ªONº position. The left side
lamp in the tool, marked ªair bag connector voltageº should illumi-
nate. If it does not illuminate, replace the tool.
