Before removing and refitting the Air Bag module the following preliminary operations must be carried out.

- Turn the ignition key to the OFF position and extract it.

- Disconnect the battery leads and insulate them.

- Wait for 10 minutes before continuing.

Handle the Air Bag module very carefully. Make sure that the battery is disconnected.

If a new module is being fitted, position the labels. Remove the detachable part of the adhesive label from the new module and place it in the special folder containing the vehicle details (model, registration date, chassis number) and the serial number of the old module. The file should be kept for future checks. A new adhesive plate comes together with the module and should be stuck on top of the existing one. Beforehand, however, it should be perforated at the month and 14 years after the year in which the module is being fitted (e.g. 2005 for 2019).
