AIR BAG SYSTEM 10B-89
12) Notify all people in immediate area that you intend to deploy/
activate air bag (inflator) module or seat belt pretensioner.
13) Separate two banana plugs (1) on deployment harness.
14) Connect deployment harness to 12 volts vehicle battery (2).
This will immediately deploy or activate air bag (inflator)
module or seat belt pretensioner.
15) Disconnect deployment harness from 12 volts vehicle bat-
tery (2) and short two deployment harness leads together by
fully seating one banana plug into the other.
16) In the unlikely event that air bag (inflator) module or seat belt
pretensioner did not deploy/activate after following these pro-
cedures, proceed immediately with Step 22) through 25). If
air bag (inflator) module or seat belt pretensioner did deploy
or activate, proceed with Steps 17) through 21).
17) Put on pair of shop gloves to protect your hands from possi-
ble irritation and heat when handling deployed air bag (infla-
tor) module or activated seat belt pretensioner.
NOTE:
• When air bag (inflator) module deploys and seat belt
pretensioner activates, rapid gas expansion will create
substantial report. Wear suitable ear protection. Notify
all people in immediate area that you intend to deploy
air bag (inflator) module or activate seat belt preten-
sioner and suitable ear protection should be worn.
• When driver air bag (inflator) module deploys, driver
air bag (inflator) module may jump about 30 cm (1 ft)
vertically. This is normal reaction to force of rapid gas
expansion inside of drive air bag (inflator) module.
• After air bag (inflator) module has been deployed, sur-
face of air bag (inflator) may contain powdery residue.
This powder consists primarily of cornstarch (used to
lubricate bag (inflator) as it inflates) and byproducts of
chemical reaction.
WARNING:
• Do not place deployed air bag (inflator) module and
activated seat belt pretensioner near any flammable
objects.
• Do not apply water, oil, etc. to deployed air bag (infla-
tor) module and activated seat belt pretensioner.
• Wait for about 30 minutes before touching any metal
surface of air bag (inflater) module or seat belt preten-
sioner module. Disregarding these precautions may
cause fire or personal injury.
Failure to follow procedures may result in fire or personal
injury.
