Areas of Importance
1. Take off the battery's negative (-) terminal, and wait for 60 s before operating. Wrap the removed
negative (-) terminal in tape to insulate it.

a flat surface and do not place anything on top of it.
5. Do not put the airbag module in a place where the temperature is over 93\
oC.
6. After the airbag module is deployed, replace it with a new one. At the same time, inspect the clock
spring (contact resistance between corresponding terminals should not be more than 0.8 Ω). If there
is anything abnormal, replace it with a new one.
7. Use gloves and protective glasses while operating on a deployed airbag.
8. While scraping an undeployed airbag, make sure to discard it after it ha\
s been deployed first.
9. During removal, to avoid experiencing static electricity interference leading to faulty execution, make
sure to remove the other wire harness connectors after the DAB and PAB module wire harness
connectors have been removed. Installation is done in reverse order.
