WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Jaguar XE and 2019 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Equipment required: Deployment tool 418-S135, Battery (12V), Safety goggles to BS2092 grade 2, Rubber gloves to PrEN 374 class 2, Ear protectors that have been measured to BS.EN 24869, Particulate respirator to EN 149 grade FFP2S. Air bag deployment kit 
  2. The deployment procedure should be completed outdoors, away from other personnel.
  3. Stack four scrap tires, securing together with heavy gauge wire or cable. While disconnected from any electrical power source, connect deployment harness and place airbag adapter portion under tire stack, ready for connection to airbag.
  4. WARNING: Power must not be connected during this step. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
    CAUTION: Make sure the connector is not in contact with the inflator or it will be damaged during the test.

    Connect airbag to airbag connector, make sure the locking sleeve is fully engaged. Position the airbag with the cover facing upwards.

  5. Make sure battery connections of deployment harness are ten meters away from the tire stack
  6. Remove any loose from around the airbag. Make sure that no flammable liquids are present.
  7. WARNING: Before proceeding, make sure precautions have been taken to warn personnel of a possible loud noise upon activation. Do not allow anybody to approach closer to restraint device than six meters. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.

    Move as far from restraint device as possible and connect the tool clips to a battery (12V).

  8. WARNING: Do not handle the deployed device immediately after activation - it may be hot. Allow the unit to cool for at least 20 minutes. Cooling modules should be continuously monitored to make sure heat does not create a fire with spilled liquids or other debris. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.

    Deploy the module by depressing both switches on the tool. If activation does not occur, disconnect battery from tool and seek advise from Jaguar Engineering and wait for further instructions.

  9. Allow the airbag to cool for at least 20 minutes. Cooling modules should be continuously monitored to make sure heat generated a fire with spilled liquids or other debris.
