Scrap treatment for safety airbag
Hint:
zWhen scraping a automobile with SRS or disposing safety airbag module, it is necessary to explode the airbag by
following steps at first.
zIf there is any abnormal phenomenon when exploding airbag, please contact with our service store or automobile
factory in time.
Note:
z Forbid exploding the safety airbag module that does not explode by yourself.

zWhen exploding the airbag, it will make much big explosive sound, so it is necessary to operate this out of the
automobile, please do not make this operation influence the life of near habitants to avoid their complaints.

zWhen exploding the airbag, use the battery as power supply whose voltage is (12±1)V.
zWhen exploding the airbag, operator should be apart from the exploded module and he should confirm there is
not anyone in the scope of 10m at least.

z When disposing the exploded airbag module, it is necessary to wear glove and safety glass.

zWhen airbag is exploded, the temperature of airbag module is too high, and a lot of gas with peculiar smell will
be produced, so do not make any treatment for exploded airbag in 30 minutes after exploding it.
zPlease wash your hands with water after finishing those operations above.
zDo not sprinkle water on exploded airbag module.
zWhen scraping a automobile, the safety airbag module assembled on automobile should be exploded.
I. Scrap the safety airbag module on automobile
1. Treatment before exploding:
(1) Park the automobile on flat place.
(2) Disassemble the cathode and anode of battery and disassemble the battery from automobile.
Note: do not work until disassembling the cathode and anode of battery for 60 seconds.
(3) Safety airbag assembly should be unfolded by following sequence.
2. Safety airbag assembly at the side of driver
(1) Disassemble three screws and lower cover of combination switch.
(2) Disassemble the lower end of helix cable and the joint connecting with panel wiring harness.
(3) Connect the conversion wiring harness of safety airbag with one wiring harness with over 10 m used
for unfolding, and the connecting part should be twisted with insulation adhesive tape to insulate and
prevent from wrong unfolding for static.
Note:take down the joint of helix cable from panel wiring harness, the joint of helix cable
will be short circuit automatically, this will prevent from exploding the safety airbag
assembly at the side of driver for static to make heavy accident.
