to cause deployment for up to 2 minutes after the ignition switch is turned off, the battery ground cable is disconnected or the DERM fuse is removed. If
the inflator module is disconnected from the deployment loop by the following procedure, service can begin immediately without waiting for the 2
minute time period to elapse.
1. Turn steering wheel so that vehicle wheels are pointed straight ahead.
2. Turn ignition switch to Lock position and remove key.

4. Remove steering column filler panel.
