AIRBAG SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTIC)
General Description
The removed front seat with the airbag module
must be kept at least 200 mm (8 in) away from walls
and other objects.
When painting or performing sheet metal work
on the front part of the vehicle, including the front
wheel apron, front fender, and front side frame, re-
move the front sub sensors and wire harness of the
airbag system.
When painting or performing sheet metal work
on the side of the vehicle, including the side sill,
center pillar, and front and rear doors, remove the
side airbag sensors and wiring harness of the air-
bag system.
Do not discard undeployed airbag modules.
They could easily cause a serious accident if acci-
dentally deployed.
(1) More than 200 mm (8 in)

wheels may light the ABS warning light, but this
indicates no malfunction. When diagnosis is fin-
ished, perform the ABS memory clearance pro-
cedure of OBD system.
Check seat belt warning light comes on and
buzzer beeps.Does the seat belt warning
light come on and buzzer
beep?Temporary poor

Disposal of Pretensioner
6. Disposal of Pretensioner
A: CAUTION
Do not discard undeployed pretensioners, because
they may cause serious personal injury when acci-
dentally deployed.
Deployment of the pretensioners should be done
on a flat place free from any possible danger. Avoid
deploying outdoors during heavy rainy or strong
windy weather.
Do not drop or damage the pretensioner.
Because deploying the pretensioners causes a
high-explosive noise, be sure to warn people in the
area, and do not allow anyone within a 5 m (16 ft)
radius of the disposal site.
Some smoke will be emitted after deployment of
the pretensioners. Therefore, it must be deployed
in a well-ventilated area with no smoke alarms
nearby.
Wear gloves, goggles, and earplugs during this
operation. Wash your hands afterwards.
After deployment, the pretensioner is especially
hot. Leave it unattended for 40 minutes or longer,
and then discard it.
Do not let water get on the deployed pretension-
er.
Wrap the deployed pretensioner in an airtight vi-
nyl bag, and then discard it.
If circumstances do not permit pretensioner de-
ployment, contact a SUBARU dealer.
B: OPERATION
1. DEPLOYING OF PRETENSIONER WHILE
INSTALLED IN VEHICLE
1) Fold backrest all the way forward, and then
move front seat all the way forward.
2) Turn the ignition switch to OFF, disconnect the
ground cable from battery, and wait for more than
20 seconds before starting work.
3) Remove the center pillar lower trim.
4) Disconnect the connector (A) of pretensioner.
5) Short the terminal to alligator clip furnished as
deployment tool (A).6) Connect the deployment tool and deployment
adapter D (B).
CAUTION:
The deployment tool terminals should be kept
shorted until just before deployment of the pre-
tensioner.
7) Connect the deployment adapter D connector and
pretensioner yellow connector.
8) Extend the deployment tool to the limit, and
make sure that the vehicle is empty. Close all win-
dows, sunroof, and rear gate completely.
9) Move the battery at least 5 m (16 ft) from the ve-
hicle, and secure the nearby area. Connect the de-
ployment tool alligator clip to the battery negative (−
) terminal.
