The adapter harness below the wheel should be loose. If it 
is too tight, the reaction when the air bag deploys could 
damage the adapter harness.

pre-tensioner bracket and secure them to the front 
(raised part) of the wheel on two places.

WARNING

•

Before deployment and operation, check carefully 
to be sure that no one is nearby.

•

After the air bag has been deployed or the seat belt 
pre-tensioner has been triggered, the inflator is 
very hot. So wait for at least thirty minutes before 
the inflator is handled. See Deployed Air Bag Mod-
ule and Seat Belt pre-tensioner Disposal Proce-
dures (Refer to 

P.52B-103

) for post-deployment 

handling instructions.

•

Just in case that the air bag module could not 
been deployed or the seat belt pre-tensioner could 
not been operated, contact the MMNA Tech Line.

5. At a location as far away from the air bag module as 

possible, and from a shielded position, disconnect the two 
connected wires from each other, and connect them to the 
two terminals of the battery (which has bee removed from 
the vehicle) to deploy the air bag and operate the seat belt 
pre-tensioner.

6. For the disposal of an deployed air bag module or seat belt

DEPLOYED AIR BAG MODULE DISPOSAL

After deployment and operation, the air bag module and seat 
belt pre-tensioner should be disposed of in the same manner 
as any other scrap parts, adhering to local laws and/or legisla-
tion. Observe the following precautions during air bag disposal:
1. The inflator will be quite hot immediately following 

deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it cool 
before attempting to handle it.

2. Do not put water or oil on the air bag after deployment or on 

the seat belt pre-tensioner after operation.

WARNING

If after following these precautions, any material does 
get into the eyes or on the skin, immediately rinse the 
affected area with a large amount of clean water. If 
any irritation develops, seek medical attention.

3. There may be material on the deployed air bag module or 

the operated seat belt pre-tensioner, that could irritate the 
eye and/or skin. Wear gloves and safety glasses when 
handling a deployed air bag module or the operated seat 
belt pre-tensioner.

4. Tightly seal the air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner in 

a strong plastic bag for disposal.

5. Be sure to always wash your hands after completing this 

operation.
