WARNING:
- When carrying a live air bag (inflator) module, make sure the bag opening is pointed away from you.
  Never carry air bag (inflator) module by wires or connector on the side of the module. In case of an accidental deployment, the bag will then deploy with minimal chance of injury.
- As the live side air bag (inflator) module must be kept with its bag (trim cover) facing up while being stored or left standing. This is necessary so that a free space is provided to allow the air bag to expand in the unlikely event of accidental deployment.
- Observe "Precautions on Handling and Storage of Air Bag System Components: " for handling and storing it.
Otherwise, personal injury may result.
