14) Notify all people in the immediate area that you intend to acti-
vate the seat belt pretensioner.
NOTE:

When the pretensioner activates, the rapid gas expan-
sion will create a substantial report. Wear suitable ear
protection. Notify all people in the immediate area that
you intend to activate the seat belt pretensioner and suit-
able ear protection should be worn.

When the pretensioner activates, the seat belt preten-
sioner may jump about 30 cm (1 ft) vertically. This is a
normal reaction of the seat belt pretensioner to the force
of the rapid gas expansion inside the pretensioner.
WARNING:
Safety precautions must be observed when handling
an activated seat belt pretensioner.

After activation, the metal surfaces of the seat belt
pretensioner will be very hot. Do not touch the metal
areas of the seat belt pretensioner for about 30 min-
utes after activation.

Do not place the activated seat belt pretensioner
near any flammable objects.

Do not apply water, oil, etc. to the activated seat belt
pretensioner.

If the activated seat belt pretensioner must be
moved before it is cool, wear gloves and handle it by
using nonmetal material.
Failure to follow procedures may result in fire or per-
sonal injury.
15) Separate the two banana plugs on the deployment harness.
16) Connect the deployment harness to the power source (12V ve-
hicle battery) to immediately activate the pretensioner.

nector on the underside of the pretensioner.

When placing a live seat belt pretensioner on the work-
bench or some place like that, be sure not to lay it with its
exhaust hole provided side facing down. It is also prohib-
ited to put something on its face with an exhaust hole or
to put a seat belt pretensioner on top of another.
Otherwise, personal injury may result.
25) Temporarily store the seat belt pretensioner. At that time, be
sure NOT to face its exhaust hole provided side down. It must
face up. Refer to ªService Precautionsº in this section for detail.
