Disposal Procedures
6 m or longer
(6) Separate the deployment harnesses as far from the
vehicle as possible and connect to the terminals of the
battery removed from the vehicle. Then deploy.
Caution
1) Before deploying the air bag, see that no one is
in and near the vehicle. Also, put on safety
glasses.
2) The deployment makes the inflator of the front
passenger's air bag very hot. Before handling
the inflator, wait more than 30 minutes for
cooling.
3) If the front passenger's air bag module fails to
deploy although the procedure is respected,
do not go near the module. Contact your local
distributor.
(7) Discard the deployed air bag module according to
Deployed Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.
(Refer to P.52B-75.)
Seat belt pre-tensioner
(1) Remove the center pillar lower trim.
(Refer to GROUP 52A - Instrument Panel.)
(2) Disconnect the
connector (red) from the floor wiring harness
connector (2 - pin, red).
NOTE
Once disconnected from the floor wiring harness, both
electrodes of the seat belt pre-tensioner connector
short-circuit automatically. This prevents the seat belt
pre-tensioner from accidental deployment caused by
static, and etc.
(3) Connect deployment harnesses longer than 6 m to
each SRS air bag adapter harness and insulate the
connections with plastic tape.
Also, connect the deployment harnesses in the other
ends to short, thereby preventing the seat belt
pre-tensioner from accidental deployment caused by
static etc.
(4) Connect the SRS air bag adapter harness to the
seat belt pre-tensioner 2 - pin connector (red) and pull
out the operation harness.
