The SDM maintains sufficient voltage to cause a deployment
for up to 10 minutes after any of the following conditions:
• | After the ignition switch is turned to OFF. |
• | After the battery is disconnected. |
• | After the fuse powering the SDM is removed. |
To avoid accidental deployment check the service procedure requirements
for removal of the AIR BAG fuse and disconnection of the deployment loops.
To avoid the 10 minute time period refer to
Disabling the SIR System
to disconnect the inflator modules from the deployment loops.
