releases wring harness.

Mutually connect (short) the other end of release wring harness to avoid the possible incorrect release caused by the static

interference.

d.    At the clock spring’s 2# joint, tract the translation wiring harness out of the vehicle with the release wiring harness (Figure 9.2)

e. Close all the windows and doors and wear the guard to reduce the noises.

Caution

The guard should be worn because the glass with cracks is very fragile.

f. Shut off the joint of driver’s side safety airbag release wiring harness somewhere far from the vehicle, and connects the joint

with the accumulator and makes the safety airbag release.

Caution

Continue the operation after the confirmation of nobody is in or next to the vehicle.

Its gas generator is quite hot after the driver’s side safety airbag’s release, it can be used after its cooling down for more

than 30 minutes.

Contact with the local service station of the Great Wall Auto Stock Corporation if the driver’s side safety airbag module

cannot be released.

g. Abandon the released driver’s side safety airbag module according to the instructions.

2.   Release outside the vehicle

Caution

Release the safety airbag somewhere open and plain as well as 6m plus from the obstacles and people

When release the safety airbag outdoors, try to avoid the strong wind and ignite windward in the breeze.

a. Remove the accumulator negative and positive and remove the accumulator.

Caution

Continue the operation 60 seconds after the removal of the accumulator.

b. Release the safety airbag module according to following procedure

driver’s  side safety airbag module

remove the driver’s side safety airbag module off the vehicle.

Caution

The two ends of the terminal will short automatically without the joint connection of driver’s safety airbag module,

therefore the possible improper release caused by static interference can be avoided; if it improperly releases, keep the

released side up and store it somewhere plain, do not lay anything on it.

Prepare 2 6m plus release wiring harnesses and mutually connect the other ends(short-circuit) of them to avoid the possible

improper release caused by static interference.( refer to figure 9-4)

Touch the vehicle with your hands to eliminate the static electricity.

Caution

Strictly execute the previous procedure for it can prevent the possible incorrect release caused by the static interference

from happening.

Shut off the driver’s side safety airbag module wiring harness and connect it with two release wiring harnesses( refer to figure

9-5)

Installed the stand-by bolts on the driver’s side safety airbag module’s inside bolt and fasten a thick wire to the wheel rim to

fix it.

Connect the release wiring harness connecting with the driver’s side safety airbag module with the low part of an old tire loading

the wheel rim. ( refer to figure 9-6)

Lay three wheel-hub-free old tires on the tire fixing the driver’s side safety airbag module (Figure 9-7).

Shut off the joint of driver’s side safety airbag release wiring harness somewhere far from the vehicle, and connect the joint with

the accumulator and make the safety airbag release (Figure9-8).

Caution

Release the driver’s side safety airbag module after the confirmation of nobody close to it.

Its gas generator is quite hot after the driver’s side safety airbag’s release, it can be used after its cooling down for more

than 30 minutes.
