WARNINGS:

To minimize the possibility of injury in the
event of premature deployment, always
carry a live air bag module with the bag
and trim cover pointed away from the body.
Failure to follow this instruction may result
in personal injury.

To minimize the possibility of premature

CAUTION: Do not connect both test leads

to the adapter. Both air bag module inflators
must be deployed separately.

Connect two test leads to the air bag module
and the other end of one of the test leads to
the adapter (driver air bag module shown).
