Air Bag Module (Passenger)
Air Bag Module (Passenger)
CAUTION:
1) Never attempt to disassemble or repair the air bag module.
2) Do not drop the air bag module or allow contact with water, grease or oil. Replace it if a dent, crack, deformation or rust are detected.
3) The air bag module should be stored on a flat surface and placed so that the pad surface is facing upward. Do not place anything on top of it.
4) Do not expose the air bag module to temperature over 93°C (200°F)
5) An undeployed air bag module should only be disposed in accordance with the procedures.
6) Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the air bag module (squib) even if you are using the specified tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester, accidental air bag deployment will result in serious personal injury.
7) Whenever the PAB is deployed it should be replaced with a new one assembled with an extension wire. Because the squib melts down if the PAB is deployed, making the extension wire useless.
