SURROUNDING AREAS OF THE DRIVER AIR BAG ASSEMBLY WILL BE VERY HOT. DO NOT TOUCH THE METAL AREAS OF
THE DRIVER AIR BAG ASSEMBLY FOR ABOUT TEN MINUTES AFTER DEPLOYMENT. IF THE DEPLOYED DRIVER AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY MUST BE MOVED BEFORE IT IS COOL, WEAR GLOVES AND HANDLE BY THE AIR BAG OR TRIM COVER.
21. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the driver airbag assembly immediately after deployment. This will prevent damage to the pigtail adapter or
SRS deployment harness due to possible contact with the hot driver air bag assembly canister. The pigtail adapter can be reused. They should,
however, be inspected for damage after each deployment and replaced If necessary.
22. Dispose of the deployed driver air bag assembly through normal refuse channels after it has cooled for at least 30 minutes.
23. Wash your hands with mild soap and water afterward.
NOTE: The remaining steps are to be followed in the unlikely event that the driver air bag assembly did not deploy after following these
procedures.
24. Ensure that the SRS deployment harness has been disconnected from the power source and that its two banana plugs have been shorted together by
fully seating one banana plug into the other.
25. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the driver air bag assembly.
WARNING: WHEN STORING A LIVE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY OR WHEN LEAVING A LIVE INFLATOR MODULE
UNATTENDED ON A BENCH OR OTHER SURFACE, ALWAYS FACE THE BAG AND TRIM COVER UP AND AWAY FROM
THE SURFACE. THIS IS NECESSARY SO THAT A FREE SPACE IS PROVIDED TO ALLOW THE AIR BAG TO EXPAND IN THE
UNLIKELY EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW PROCEDURES MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY.
26. Temporarily store the driver air bag assembly with its trim cover facing up.
