HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Live (Undeployed) Air Bag (Inflator) Module (Driver and Passenger)
WARNING: Never attempt to measure the resistance of the air bag (inflator) modules (driver and passenger). It is very dangerous as the
electric current from the tester may deploy the air bag.
Special care is necessary when handling and storing a live (undeployed) air bag (inflator) module. The rapid gas generation produced during
deployment of the air bag could cause the air bag (inflator) module, or an object in front of the air bag (inflator) module, to be thrown through the air
in the unlikely event of an accidental deployment.
^
Never attempt disassembly of the air bag (inflator) module.
