3.
Connect deployment wires, each 6 meters (20 feet) or longer,
to the two leads of special tool MB992102, and cover the
connections with insulator tape. The other ends of the
deployment wires should be connected to each other (short-
circuited), to prevent sudden unexpected deployment of the
air bag module.
NOTE:
This prevents the air bags from being
unintentionally deployed because of the static and
others.
4.
Connect the special tool MB992102 to the driver’s air bag
module.
5.
To the torx screw installation hole located at the backside of
air bag module, tie a thick wire for fixing the wheel.

6.
Route the deployment wires connected to the driver’s air bag
module beneath an old tire and wheel assembly. Then, using
the wire tied to the bolt, secure the driver’s air bag module to
the tire and wheel assembly with the deployment surface
facing up.

⦆
Before deployment, check carefully to be sure that no one
is nearby.
⦆
The inflator will be quite hot immediately following the
deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it to cool
before attempting to handle it. Although not poisonous,
do not inhale gas from air bag deployment. See Deployed
Air Bag Module and Operated Seat Belt Pre-tensioner
Disposal (Refer to P.52B-371) for post-deployment
handling instructions.
⦆
If the air bag fails to deploy, do not go near the module.
8.
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.
