10B-54 AIR BAG SYSTEM
AIR BAG (INFLATOR) MODULE AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER
DISPOSAL
WARNING:
Failure to follow proper air bag (inflator) module and seat belt pretensioner disposal procedures can
result in air bag deployment and pretensioner activation which may cause personal injury.
Undeployed air bag (inflator) module/inactivated seat belt pretensioner must not be disposed of
through normal refuse channels.
The undeployed air bag (inflator) module and inactivated seat belt pretensioner contain substances
that can cause severe illness or personal injury if the sealed container is damaged during disposal.
Do not dispose of the live (undeployed) air bag (inflator) modules and seat belt pretensioners.
The method employed depends upon the final disposition of the particular vehicle, as noted in DEPLOYMENT/AC-
TIVATION OUTSIDE VEHICLE and DEPLOYMENT/ACTIVATION INSIDE VEHICLE.

WARNING:
Following precautions must be observed for this work. Failure to observe any of them may result in
personal injury.
The procedure should be followed strictly as described here.
Be sure to read SERVICE PRECAUTIONS in this section beforehand.
To avoid an accidental deployment, this work should be performed by no more than one person.
Since the smoke is produced when air bag is deployed and pretensioner is activated, select a well-
ventilated area.
The air bag (inflator) module and seat belt pretensioner will immediately deploy/activate when a
power source is connected to it. Wear safety glasses throughout this entire deployment/activation
and disposal procedure.
Wear suitable ear protection when deploying air bag/activating pretensioner. Also, advise those
who are in the area close to deployment/activation site to wear suitable ear protection.
Do not deploy/activate two or more air bag system components (air bag (inflator) modules and
seat belt pretensioners) at the same time.
Never connect deployment harness to any power source before connecting deployment harness
to the air bag (inflator) module and seat belt pretensioner. Deployment harness shall remain
shorted and not be connected to a power source until the air bag is to be deployed and the preten-
sioner is to be activated.
DEPLOYMENT/ACTIVATION OUTSIDE VEHICLE
Use this procedure when the vehicle itself is used again (only the air bag (inflator) module(s) and seat belt preten-
sioner(s) are disposed of).
. . . . . . Follow this procedure when disposing of the air bag (inflator) mod-
ule(s) and seat belt pretensioner(s) only (i.e., the vehicle itself will
be used again).
. . . . . . . Follow this procedure when scrapping the entire vehicle including
