Outlander AWD L4-2.4L SOHC (2003)
The other ends of the two wires should be connected to each other (short-circuited), to prevent sudden unexpected operation of the seat belt
pre-tensioner.
6. Connect the special tool MB991885, which the deployment wires is attached to, to the seat belt pre-tensioner connector.
CAUTION: The adapter harness below the wheel should be loose. If it is too tight, the reaction when the seat belt pre-tensioner operates could damage
the adapter harness.
7. Pass the thick wires through the hole on the seat belt pre-tensioner bracket and secure them to the front (raised part) of the wheel on two place.
8. Pull the seat belt out the outside of the tire, and then place one tire without a wheel inside on top of the existing tire.
WARNING: Before operation, check carefully to be sure that no one is nearby.
The inflator will be quite hot immediately following the operation, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it to cool before attempting
to handle it. Although not poisonous, do not inhale gas from seat belt pre-tensioner operation. See Deployed Air Bag Module and
Operated Seat Belt pre-tensioner Disposal for post-operation handling instructions.
If the seat belt pre-tensioner fails to operate, do not go near the seat belt pre-tensioner. Contact the MMSA Tech Line.
9. 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 operated seat belt pre-tensioner.
10. Discard the operated seat belt pre-tensioner as specified in Deployed Air Bag Module and Seat Belt pre-tensioner Disposal.

After deployment, the air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner should be disposed of in the same manner as any other scrap parts, adhering to local
laws and/or legislation. Observe the following precautions during air bag disposal:
1. The inflator will be quite hot immediately following deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it cool before attempting to handle it.
2. Do not put water or oil on the air bag after deployment.
WARNING: If after following these precautions, any material does get into the eyes or on the skin, immediately rinse the affected area with a
large amount of clean water. If any irritation develops, seek medical attention.
3. There may be material on the deployed air bag module or the seat belt pre-tensioner, that could irritate the eye and/or skin. Wear gloves and safety
glasses when handling a deployed air bag module.
