20. Seat 1 banana plug into the other in order to short the deployment harness leads.
CAUTION: Refer to SIR Deployed Inflator Modules Are Hot Caution in Service Precautions.
21. If the inflator module did not deploy, disconnect the adapter and discontinue the procedure. Contact the Technical Assistance Group for further
assistance. Otherwise, proceed to the following steps.
22. Put on a pair of shop gloves.
23. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the inflator module as soon as possible.
24. Dispose of the deployed inflator module through normal refuse channels.
25. Wash hands with a mild soap.
Deployment Procedure
DEPLOYMENT PROCEDURES
Inflator modules can be deployed inside or outside of the vehicle. The method used depends upon the final disposition of the vehicle. Review the
following procedures in order to determine which will work best in a given situation.
Inflator Module Handling and Scrapping
INFLATOR MODULE HANDLING AND SCRAPPING
LIVE (UNDEPLOYED) INFLATOR MODULE
CAUTION: Refer to SIR Inflator Module Handling and Storage Caution in Service Precautions.
Use special care when handling or storing live, undeployed, inflator modules. Inflator module deployment produces a rapid generation of gas. This
may cause the inflator module, or an object in front of the inflator module, to project through the air in the event of an unlikely deployment.
DUAL STAGE INFLATOR MODULES
Dual stage inflator modules have two deployment stages. If stage 1 was used to deploy the inflator module, stage 2 may still be active. Therefore, a
deployed dual stage inflator module must be treated as an active module. If disposal of a deployed or undeployed dual stage module is required both
deployment loops must be energized to deploy the air bag.
SCRAPPING PROCEDURE
During the course of a vehicle's useful life, certain situations may arise which will require the disposal of a live, undeployed, inflator module. Do not
dispose of a live, undeployed, inflator module through normal disposal channels until the inflator module has been deployed. The following
