The lamp on the right side of the Tool, marked "deployment tool power", should glow green, not red.
Press the button on the Tool. The left side lamp on the tool, marked "air bag connector voltage", will illuminate and the air bag module will deploy.
CAUTION:
When deploying the front passenger air bag module,
- Stand at least 5 m (16 ft) away from the air bag module. Do not stand on the deploying side.
- Make sure the air bag module has sufficient clearance to inflate. The air bag inflates upward and outward from the high side of the air bag module. Be sure to point high side towards the open area away from shelves, wall hangings, etc.
