WARNING:
z
Verify that air bag module operation (explosive) sound occurs
twice. If no operation (explosive) sound was heard or a single
operation (explosive) sound was heard, both inflators would
not have operated (deployed) properly. This may cause serious
injury if the air bag module operates (deploy) unexpectedly. If
the two operation (explosive) sounds are not heard, perform
Step 8 again. If a total of two operation (explosive) sounds
cannot be verified even though Step 8 is performed again,
leave the air bag module alone for 30 min or more before
approaching it again.
z
The air bag module is very hot immediately after it is operated
(deployed). You can get burned. Do not touch the air bag
module for at least 15 min after deployment.
WARNING:
z
The passenger-side air bag module is a dual inflator type. If one
inflator is forced to operate (deploy), the other may operate (deploy)
accidentally. To prevent injury while disposing of the air bag
module, make sure to operate (deploy) both passenger-side air bag
module inflators simultaneously, following the procedure below.
NOTE:
z
The
SSTs
, two types of adapter harnesses (for inflators No.1 and No.2)
and two deployment tools are to be used to operate (deploy) the
passenger-side air bag module.
