Part 2 of 2

DEPLOYMENT INSIDE THE VEHICLE (WHEN DISPOSING OF A VEHICLE)

1. Move the vehicle to an isolated spot.

DANGER : Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the battery cables before doing any further work.

WARNING : Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS AFTER HANDLING.

2. Disconnect the negative (-) and positive (+) battery cables from the battery terminals, and then remove the battery from the vehicle.
3. Remove the headlining (Refer to Interior Headlining).

4. Use the flat-tipped screwdriver to pull out the locking button of rear floor harness side connector. After releasing the lock, disconnect the connector.

NOTE: If the curtain air bag module connector is disconnected from the rear floor wiring harness side connector, both electrodes of the curtain air bag module connector will be automatically shorted to prevent unintended deployment of the curtain air bag module due to static electricity, etc.

5. Connect deployment wires, each 6 meters (20 feet) or longer, to the two leads of special tool MB991885, and cover the connections with insulation tape. The other ends of the deployment wires should be connected to each other (short-circuited), to prevent sudden unexpected deployment of the curtain air bag module.

6. Connect the special tool MB991885 to the inflator, and then pull out the deployment wire to outside the vehicle.

WARNING: If the glass is scratched, air bag deployment could cause it to crack and fly out of the vehicle, so always put a cover over the vehicle.

7. To suppress the deployment sound as much as possible, completely close all door windows, close the doors and put the cover on the vehicle.

WARNING
- Before deploying the air bag in this manner, first check to be sure that there is no one in or near the vehicle. Wear safety glasses.
- The inflator will be quite hot immediately following the deployment, so wait at least 30 minutes to allow it to cool before attempting to handle it. Although not poisonous, do not inhale gas from the air bag deployment. See Deployed Air Bag Module and Operated Seat Belt Pre-tensioner Disposal for post-operation handling instructions.
- If the air bag module fails to deploy, do not go near the air bag module.

8. At a location as far away from the vehicle as possible, disconnect the two connected wires from each the, and connect them to the two terminals of the battery (which has been removed from the vehicle) to deploy the air bag.
9. After deployment, dispose of the air bag module according to the Deployed Air Bag Module and Operated Seat belt Pre-tensioner Disposal.

DEPLOYED AIR BAG MODULE AND OPERATED SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER 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 legislation. Observe the following precautions during air bag or seat belt pre-tensioner 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.
