module(3).

CAUTION: When carrying a live inflator module,
make sure the bag opening is pointed away from
you. In case of an accidental deployment, the bag will
then deploy with minimal chance of injury. Never
carry the inflator module by the wires or connector
on the underside of the module. 
 When placing a live inflator module on a bench or
other surface, always face the bag and trim cover up,
away from the surface. This is necessary so that a
free space is provided to allow the air bag to expand
in the unlikely event of accidental deployment.
