UNDEPLOYED
At no time should any source of electricity be per-
mitted near the inflator on the back of the module.
When carrying an undeployed module, the trim cover
should be pointed away from the body to minimize
injury in the event of accidental deployment. If the
module is placed on a bench or other surface, the
plastic trim cover should be face up to minimize
movement in case of accidental deployment.
DEPLOYED
Following an airbag deployment, the vehicle inte-
rior will contain a powdery residue. This residue is Fig. 2 Airbag Exhaust Vent Sealing

CLOCKSPRING CENTERING
If the rotating tape within the clockspring is not
positioned properly in relation to the steering wheel
and the front wheels, the clockspring may fail during
use. The clockspring MUST BE CENTERED, if it is
not known to be properly positioned, or if the front
wheels were moved from the straight-ahead position.
