10B-64 AIR BAG SYSTEM
DEPLOYED AIR BAG (INFLATOR) MODULE
AND ACTIVATED SEAT BELT PRETENSION-
ER 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. The undeployed air bag (inflator)
module and the inactivated seat belt pretensioner must
not be disposed of through normal refuse channels.
The undeployed air bag (inflator) module and the inacti-
vated seat belt pretensioner contains substances that
can cause severe illness or personal injury if the sealed
container is damaged during disposal.
Deployed air bag (inflator) module and the activated seat belt pre-
tensioner can be disposed of through normal refuse channels just
like any other parts. For their disposal, however, following points
should be noted.
The air bag (inflator) module and the seat belt pretensioner im-
mediately after deployment/activation is very hot. Wait for 30
minutes to cool it off before handling it.
Never apply water, oil, etc. to deployed air bag (inflator) module
and the activated seat belt pretensioner to cool it off and be care-
ful so that water, oil etc. does not get on the deployed air bag (in-
flator) module and the activated seat belt pretensioner.
After the air bag (inflator) module has been deployed, the sur-
face of the air bag may contain a powdery residue. This powder
consists primarily of cornstarch (used to lubricate the bag as it
inflates) and byproducts of the chemical reaction. As with many
service procedures, you should wear gloves and safety glasses.
When disposing of the deployed air bag (inflator) module and the
activated seat belt pretensioner, be sure to seal it in a vinyl bag.
When air bag (inflator) module and seat belt pretensioner have
been deployed/activated inside the vehicle which is going to be
scrapped, leave them as installed to the vehicle.
Be sure to wash your hands with mild soap and water after han-
dling it.
