9. Notify all people in the immediate area of your
intention to deploy the passenger air bag assembly.
The deployment will be accompanied by a substantial
noise which may startle the uninformed.
WARNING: DEPLOYED HARNESS SHALL REMAIN
SHORTED AND NOT BE CONNECTED TO A POWER
SOURCE UNTIL THE AIR BAG IS TO BE DEPLOYED.
THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY WILL IMMEDIATELY
DEPLOY THE AIR BAG WHEN THE DEPLOYMENT
HARNESS IS CONNECTED TO A POWER SOURCE
(THIS IS THE LAST STEP WHEN DEPLOYING AN
AIRBAG ASSEMBLY). FAILURE TO FOLLOW
PROCEDURES IN THE ORDER LISTED MAY RESULT
IN PERSONAL INJURY.
10. Connect the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
deployment harness wires to the power source to
immediately deploy the air bag assembly.
Recommended application : 12 volts minimum, 2
amps minimum. A vehicle battery is suggested.

WARNING: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE
OBSERVED WHEN HANDLING A DEPLOYED
AIRBAG ASSEMBLY. AFTER AN AIRBAG
ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN DEPOLOYED, THE METAL
CANISTER AND SURROUNDING AREAS OF THE
AIRBAG ASSEMBLY WILL BE HOT. DO NOT TOUCH
THE METAL AREAS OF THE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
FOR ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES AFTER
DEPLOYMENT. IF THE DEPLOYED AIRBAG
ASSEMBLY MUST BE MOVED BEFORE IT IS COOL,
WEAR GLOVES AND HANDLE BY THE AIRBAG. DO
NOT PLACE THE DEPLOYED INFLATOR MODULE
NEAR ANY FLAMMABLE OBJECTS. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW PROCEDURES MAY RESULT IN FIRE OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
11. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the airbag
assembly immediately after deployment to avoid
damage to the pigtail adapter or SRS deployment
harness from contacting the hot airbag assembly
cannister. The pigtail adapter and SRS deployment
harness are designed to be reused. They should,
however, be inspected for damage after each
deployment and replaced if necessary.
12. Dispose of the deployed air bag assembly through
normal refuse channels after it has cooled for at least
30 minutes.
13. Wash your hands with mild soap and water afterward.
NOTE: The remaining steps are to be followed in the
unlikely event that the air bag assembly did not deploy
after following the above procedures.
