IMPORTANT :
When everything has been refitted:
• Carry out a check using the XR25 to ensure that
there is no fault in the system.
• Unlock the computer with command G81* .
• Check that the airbag warning light illuminates
for 3 seconds after the ignition is switched on
then extinguishes and remains extinguished.
If the warning light does not operate as described
above, refer to the "Fault finding" section and
check the system using the XRBAG (Elé. 1288) or
XR25.
IMPORTANT:
If these procedures are not correctly observed the
systems may not operate correctly or may be
accidentally triggered.

- again rotate the part in the clockwise direction
by making two complete turns, and after this
operation make sure that the rotary switch is
actually in the position previously described.
Refit the steering wheel and replace the pre-
bonded bolt, ensuring its correct tightening tor-
que (4.5 daN.m).
Reconnect the airbag cushion and secure it to the
steering wheel, tightening torque (0.5 daNm).
SPECIAL CASES
Where work is being done involving removal of
the steering, engine, transmission, etc., requiring
uncoupling of the rack and steering column:
→ the steering wheel must be immobilised using a
"steering wheel locking" tool.
IMPORTANT: to avoid destroying the rotary
switch under the steering wheel it is IMPORTANT
to maintain the fixed position of the steering
wheel throughout the operation.
If there is any doubt about its correct centring the
steering wheel must be removed so that the cen-
tring method described above can be applied.
REMINDER: in this case, only qualified personnel
who have received the correct training must work
on the airbag.

PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE
DESCRIPTION:
It is located in the dashboard, opposite the front
seat passenger.
It comprises:
- an inflatable cushion,
- two pyrotechnic gas generators and ignition
modules.
LOCATION
The components of the airbag module cannot be
separated.

NOTE : When it is triggered, the airbag opens the
plastic cover of the passenger airbag module.
Warning light on the instrument panel
shows the correct operation of the airbags and
the pretensioners.
NOTE : this system is operational after the ignition
has been turned on. A vehicle fitted with a pas-
senger’s airbag will be identified by a label in the
bottom corner of the windscreen on the passen-
ger’s side, and by the word "Airbag" on the dash-
board on the same side. Two additional labels on
the front window and the side of the dashboard
indicate that a child seat cannot be fitted to the
front seat. The passenger must not set his feet on
the dashboard or stick or pin objects to the dash-
board (refer to the Driver’s Handbook).
Each time the windscreen (or passenger door win-
dow) is replaced, remember to fit the labels sho-
wing that the vehicle is fitted with airbags.These
labels are available in a kit Part Number : 77 01
205 442.
REMINDER : The computer must be replaced after
the airbag has been triggered. Certain compo-
nents will lose their nominal characteristics after
the trigger energy has passed through them.

IMPORTANT: The pyrotechnic systems (airbag
and pretensioners) must not be handled near a
heat source or flame; there is a risk of triggering.
NOTE: For these vehicles, the computer may be
locked using the XR25 and command G80* (ISO
selector on S8 code D49) during the operation.
When this function is active, all the trigger lines
are inhibited, the airbag warning light on the ins-
trument panel and bargraph 14 LH on the XR25 il-
luminate (new computers are supplied in this
condition).
After the operation, carry out a check using the
XR25.
If everything is correct, unlock the computer using
command G81*.

REMOVAL
The dashboard must be removed to remove the
passenger airbag module (see "Removing -
refitting the dashboard", section 83).
Then remove the airbag module (four nuts).
IMPORTANT : When the passenger airbag module
is triggered, the damage to its mountings means
that the dashboard must be renewed.
IMPORTANT : before scrapping a non-triggered
airbag it
MUST be destroyed in accordance with
the method for destruction of the driver’s airbag
(see section "Destruction procedure": destruction
of part removed from the vehicle).
Accessibility of passenger airbag ignition mo-
dules for fault finding
The dashboard must be removed to reach the pas-
senger airbag ignition modules.
IMPORTANT : The ignition module must be
checked using the XRBAG as indicated in the
"Fault finding" section.

REFITTING
IMPORTANT: The following safety advice MUST
be followed when refitting or replacing a passen-
ger airbag module. If these instructions are not
followed the system may not operate normally
and could even cause a risk for the vehicle occu-
pants.
IMPORTANT :
Refitting is the reverse of removal. The tightening
torque of the 4 module mounting bolts
(0.6 daN.m)
MUST be observed.
• Renew the "System tamperproof " label with a
blue After Sales label sold in kit Part Number
77 01 205 356 for all types.
• Remember to remove all foreign bodies (bolts,
clips) when fitting the airbag.
IMPORTANT :
Before reconnecting the passenger airbag module
and refitting the dashboard, the system wiring
must be checked.
Fit a dummy ignition module (Elé. 1288) to the
passenger airbag module connector.
Connect the 30 track adapter of the XRBAG to the
orange 30 track connector on the computer
wiring.
After supplying power to the XRBAG (battery),
connect the white 2 track measuring connector to
wiring (C) of the adapter, and the measurement
should be between 1.8 and 4.6 Ω.
If the measurements are correct:
• Disconnect the dummy ignition module.
• Connect the wiring to the passenger airbag
ignition module (by offering up the dashboard)
and connect the white 2 track measuring
connector of the XRBAG once more to wiring
(C) of the adapter, and the measurement
should be between 1.8 and 4.6 Ω.
If the measurements are correct:
• Refit the dashboard.
• Use the XR25 to check no faults are present in
the system.
• Unlock the computer using command G81*.
• Check that the airbag warning light illuminates
for 3 seconds when the ignition is switched on
then extinguishes and remains extinguished.
If the warning light does not operate as described
above, or the values measured are incorrect, refer
to the "Fault finding" section.
