LIVE (UNDEPLOYED) INFLATOR MODULE
CAUTION: Refer to SIR Inflator Module Handling and Storage Caution in Service Precautions.
Take special care when handling or storing a live (undeployed) inflator module. An 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 MODULE
Dual stage inflator modules have 2 deployment stages. If stage 1 was used to deploy a dual stage 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 useful life, certain situations may arise which will require the disposal of a live (undeployed) inflator module. Do not
dispose a live (undeployed) inflator module through normal disposal channels until the inflator module has been deployed. The following information
covers the proper procedures for the disposing of a live (undeployed) inflator module.
Do not deploy the inflator module in the following situations:
-
After replacement of an inflator module under warranty. The inflator module may need to be returned undeployed to the manufacturer.
-
If the vehicle is the subject of a Product Liability report related to the SIR system and is subject to a Preliminary Investigation (GM-1241). Do not
