REFITTING AIR BAG

Safety measures

Operations on air bag system components must be carried out by specially trained personnel and safety measures set out in the section beginning on page 99 must be STRICTLY adhered to.

Operation sequence

  1. Before refitting the air bag, check that the yellow lead attached to the clock spring passes through the rubber slot.
  2. Bring the driver's air bag up to its fitting position on the steering wheel and tilt as necessary.
  3. Connect the yellow two-way connector leading from the clock spring to the air bag connector.
  4. Position the air bag carefully in its seat and then tighten both 5 mm hexagonal--headed socket screws retaining the air bag to the steering wheel.

Check system operation by ensuring panel warning light goes off.

NEVER CONNECT THE BATTERY UNTIL INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE.

NOTA After refitting, check the system is working properly by means of a FI-AT/ LANCIA TESTER or other diagnostic instrument.
