28. Stretch the driver and passenger deployment harnesses to their full length (Figures 29 and 31).
29. Completely cover windshield area and front door window openings with a drop cloth, blanket or similar item. This reduces the possibility of injury
due to possible fragmentation of the vehicle's glass or interior.
30. Notify everyone in the immediate area that you intend to deploy the air bags. The deployment will be very loud. This may startle any uninformed
people in the area.
31. Place a power source near the shorted end of the SIR deployment harness. Use a vehicle battery when available, but always use a power source
that complies to the following:
^
12 volts minimum
^
2 amps minimum
32. Separate the two ends of the driver deployment harness wires (Figure 32).
CAUTION: When you are deploying an inflator module for disposal, perform the deployment procedures in the order listed:
^
Wear safety glasses throughout the procedures.
^
Make sure the area around the inflator module is clear of all people and loose or flammable objects.
^
Short the deployment harness wires as instructed.
^
Connect the deployment harness to the inflator module before you connect it to the power source.
^
Connect the deployment harness to the power source to immediately deploy the air bag.
Failure to follow the procedures in the order listed may result in personal injury.
NOTICE: The rapid gas expansion involved with deploying an air bag will be very loud. Notify all people in the immediate area that you in tend to
deploy the Inflator modules.
33. Connect the SIR deployment harness wires to the power source to immediately deploy the inflatable restraint steering wheel module (Figure 32).
34. Disconnect the deployment harness wires from the power source.
35. Separate the two ends of the passenger deployment harness wires (Figure 33).
CAUTION: Deployment wires shall remain shorted and not be connected to a power source until the air bag is to be deployed. The inflator
module will immediately deploy the air bag when a power source is connected to it. Connecting the deployment wires to the power source
should always be the final step in the inflator module deployment procedure. Failure to follow procedures in the order listed could result in
personal injury.
36. Connect the passenger deployment harness wires to a power source. This will immediately deploy the inflatable restraint I/P module (Figure 33).
