WARNING: An undeployed air bag module and/or ETR seat belt CANNOT be disposed of without first being deployed. If this is not possible through procedures outlined below, contact vehicle manufacturer for further instructions. Perform remote deployment outdoors. Keep personnel at least 20 feet away.
  1. Before proceeding, follow service precautions. See SERVICE PRECAUTIONS . Move vehicle outdoors to a remote area, away from workshop and other personnel. Disconnect and shield negative battery cable. Open all vehicle windows and doors.
  2. Ensure air bag module is secured to steering wheel, and passenger air bag is secured to dash. Ensure ETR seat belt assemblies are secured to "B" pillars and all seat belt buckles are latched. Remove loose objects from front seat. DO NOT allow anyone inside vehicle.
  3. Disable air bag system. See DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM . Connect Trigger Device (126-589-00-90-00) and Adapter Cable (126 589 21 63 00) to SRS system connector (X29/9) located at passenger footwell area. See Figure. Move away from vehicle as far as trigger device wiring will allow.
