shorted and not be connected to a power source until the air bag is to be deployed.

WARNING: WHEN STORING A LIVE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY OR WHEN LEAVING A LIVE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
UNATTENDED ON A BENCH OR OTHER SURFACE, ALWAYS FACE THE AIR 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.
6. Clear a space on the ground about 183 cm (6 feet) in clearance where the driver air bag assembly is to be deployed. A paved, outdoor location
where there is no activity is preferred. If an outdoor location is not available, a space on the shop floor where there is no activity and sufficient
ventilation is recommended. Ensure no loose or flammable objects are within the deployment area.
7. Place the J-41497 on the bench vice. This is necessary to provide sufficient stabilization of the fixture during deployment.
8. Attach the driver airbag assembly in the J-41497. Airbag assembly must be mounted facing upward on J-41497. SECURELY HAND-TIGHTEN
ALL FASTENERS PRIOR TO DEPLOYMENT.
