id081000801100

Warning

• A live (undeployed) air bag module or pre-tensioner seat belt may accidentally operate (deploy)

when it is disposed of and cause serious injury. Do not dispose of a live (undeployed) air bag
module and pre-tensioner seat belt. If the SSTs (Deployment tool and Adapter harness) are not
available, consult the nearest Mazda representative for assistance.

Caution

• Deploying the air bag modules and pre-tensioner seat belts inside the vehicle may cause damage

to the vehicle interior. When the vehicle is not to be scrapped, always deploy the air bag modules
and pre-tensioner seat belts outside the vehicle.

• If the vehicle is to be scrapped, or when disposing of any air bag modules or pre-tensioner seat belts, operate

(deploy) them inside the vehicle by following the deployment procedure below and using the SST (Deployment
tool).

• When disposing of an operated (deployed) air bag module and pre-tensioner seat belt, refer to “AIR BAG

MODULE AND PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT DISPOSAL PROCEDURES”.

Deployment Procedure for Inside of Vehicle

1. Inspect the SST (Deployment tool). (See 08-10-31 INSPECTION OF SST (DEPLOYMENT TOOL).)
2. Move the vehicle to an open space, away from strong winds, and close all of the vehicle doors and windows.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
4. Disconnect the negative battery cable and wait for 1 min or more.
5. Follow the procedure below for operating (deploying) the applicable air bag module or pre-tensioner seat belt.

Driver-side Air Bag Module

Warning

• The driver-side air bag module is a dual inflator type. If one inflator is forced to operate (deploy),

the other may operate (deploy) accidentally. To prevent injury while disposing of the air bag
module, make sure to operate (deploy) both driver-side air bag module inflators simultaneously,
following the procedure below.

Note

• The SSTs, two types of adopter harnesses (for inflators No.1 and No.2) and two deployment tools are to

be used to operate (deploy) the driver-side air bag module.

1. Remove the driver-side air bag module.

(See 08-10-6 DRIVER-SIDE AIR BAG MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

2. Connect the SSTs (Adapter harness) to the

driver-side air bag module as shown in the figure.

3. Install the driver-side air bag module.

(See 08-10-6 DRIVER-SIDE AIR BAG MODULE
REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

4. Connect the SSTs (Deployment tool) to the

SSTs (Adapter harness).

5. Connect both SSTs (Deployment tool) to the battery. Connect the power supply red clip to the positive battery

terminal, and the black clip to the negative battery terminal.

6. Verify that the red lamp on both SSTs (Deployment tool) is illuminated.
7. Verify that all persons are standing at least 6 m {20 ft} away from the vehicle.
8. Press the activation switch on the SST

(Deployment tool) connected with 49 L066 002
(a yellow connector) of the SST (Adapter
harness), and after 3 s, press the activation
switch on the other SST (Deployment tool) to
operate (deploy) the air bag module (both
inflators).

Warning

• Verify that air bag module operation

(explosive) sound occurs twice. If no
operation (explosive) sound was heard or
a single operation (explosive) sound was
heard, both inflators would not have
operated (deployed) properly. This may cause serious injury if the air bag module operates
(deploy) unexpectedly. If the two operation (explosive) sounds are not heard, perform Step 8 again.
If a total of two operation (explosive) sounds cannot be verified even though Step 8 is performed
again, leave the air bag module alone for 30 min or more before approaching it again.

• The air bag module is very hot immediately after it is operated (deployed). You can get burned. Do

not touch the air bag module for at least 15 min after deployment.

9. Disconnect the SSTs (Deployment tool) form the SSTs (Adapter harness).

Passenger-side Air Bag Module

Warning

• The passenger-side air bag module is a dual inflator type. If one inflator is forced to operate

(deploy), the other may operate (deploy) accidentally. To prevent injury while disposing of the air
bag module, make sure to operate (deploy) both passenger-side air bag module inflators
simultaneously, following the procedure below.

Note

• The SSTs, two types of adapter harnesses (for inflators No.1 and No.2) and two deployment tools are to

be used to operate (deploy) the passenger-side air bag module.

1. Remove the glove compartment. (See 09-17-8 GLOVE COMPARTMENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2. Disconnect the passenger-side air bag module connector.
3. Connect the SSTs (Adapter harness) to the

passenger-side air bag module as shown in the
figure.

4. Connect the SSTs (Deployment tool) to the SSTs (Adapter harness).

5. Connect both SSTs (Deployment tool) to the battery. Connect the power supply red clip to the positive battery

terminal, and the black clip to the negative battery terminal.

(Deployment tool) connected with 49 L066 002
(a yellow connector) of the SST (Adapter
harness), and after 3 s, press the activation
switch on the other SST (Deployment tool) to
operate (deploy) the air bag module (both
inflators).

Warning

• Verify that air bag module operation

• The air bag module is very hot immediately after it is operated (deployed). You can be burned. Do

not touch the air bag module for at least 15 min after deployment.
