- Do not put water or oil on the air bag after deployment.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.
- There may be material on the deployed air bag module, that could irritate the eye and/or skin. Wear gloves and safety glasses when handling a deployed air bag module.
- Tightly seal the air bag module in a strong plastic bag for disposal.
- Be sure to always wash your hands after completing this operation.
