Disposal Of Live Air Bag Modules For Driver Air Bag Module, Passenger Air Bag Module And Side Air Bag Module, Using Tires

  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.
  2. The deployment procedure should be carried out 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 air bag adaptor portion under tire stack, ready for connection to air bag.
  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 air bag to air bag connector, make sure the locking sleeve is fully engaged. Position the air bag 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 parts from around the air bag. 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 12V vehicle battery.

  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 air bag to cool for at least 20 minutes. Cooling modules should be continuously monitored to make sure heat does not generate a fire with spilled liquids or other debris.
