WARNING:
Always obey the following cautions to avoid human suffering.
• There is a possibility of the pretensioner deploy by mistake. Deploy the airbag module before discarding.
• Wear protective gloves, safety goggles and earplugs during operation. Wash your hands afterwards.

CAUTION:
• As a rule, airbag modules should be deployed while still installed in the vehicle. Do not remove the airbag modules unless necessary.
• Deployment of airbag modules should be performed on a flat place in safety area. Avoid deploying outdoors when rainy or windy weather.
• Deploying an airbag module causes a high explosive noise, be sure to warn people in the area, and do not allow anyone within 5 m (16 ft) radius of the disposal site.
• Some smoke will be emitted after deployment of the airbag module. Therefore, it must be deployed in a well-ventilated place with no smoke detector nearby.
• Do not let water get into the deployed airbag module.
• Wrap the deployed airbag module in a sealed vinyl bag, and discard it.
• If circumstances do not permit the airbag module deployment, contact the SUBARU dealer.
