Driver's Side Air Bag Module
CAUTION:
Improper services cause the sudden operation of driver's air bag module or the system to be inoperative. Do not disassemble or tamper with the air bag module to prevent the serious injury.
The driver's air bag module incorporates a 4-spoke steering wheel. The driver's air bag module is an assembly part consisting of an air bag, module cover, inflator, and their fasteners. The air bag is made from nylon and inflates by gas from the inflator. As a driver is being pressed to the air bag, it deflates discharging gas from two vents at the rear of the air bag to reduce the shock from the impact.
The driver's air bag deploys by changing its inflation pressure in two steps.
The inflator has two squib connectors to deploy the air bag in two steps.
