post deployment handling instructions.
-
If the air bag fails to deploy, do not go near the module. Contact the MMSA Tech Line.
7. At a location as far away from the air bag module as possible, and from a shielded position, disconnect the two connected wires from each other,
and connect them to the two terminals of the battery (which has been removed from the vehicle) to deploy the air bag.
8. Discard the deployed air bag module as specified in Deployed Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.
DEPLOYMENT OUTSIDE VEHICLE <Side-airbag module>
1. Remove the front seatback assembly with side-airbag module from the vehicle.
CAUTION: Once disconnected, both electrodes of the side-airbag module connector short automatically to prevent accidental deployment caused
by static etc. Still, in consideration of the accidental deployment, store the air bag module on flat place with deployment surface facing up. Also,
do not put anything on it.
2. Connect deployment wires 6 meters (20 feet) or longer with the SRS air bag adapter harness respectively. Insulate the connections with tape.
Also, connect the other ends of the deployment wires each other to short, thereby preventing the side airbag from accidental deployment caused by
static etc.
3. Place the front seat back assembly with its back contact with the ground.
4. Connect the SRS air bag adapter harness with the deployment wires to the side air bag module connector.
CAUTION:
-
Before the deployment, see that no one is near the front seatback assembly.
-
The deployment makes the inflator of the side-airbag very hot Before handling the inflator, wait more than 30 minutes for cooling.
-
If the side-airbag module fails to deploy although the procedure is respected, do not go near the module. Contact the MMSA Tech Line.
5. Disconnect the deployment wires as far from the front seat back assembly possible and connect the harnesses to the battery removed from the
vehicle. Then, deploy.
6. Remove the deployed air bag module from the seatback assembly and discard as specified in Deployed Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.
