During the course of a vehicles useful life, certain situations may arise which will require the disposal of a live and undeployed inflator module. Do NOT dispose a live and undeployed inflator module through normal disposal channels until the inflator module has been deployed.
Do not deploy the inflator module in the following situations:
- After replacement of an inflator module under warranty-the inflator module may need to be returned undeployed to the manufacturer.
- If the vehicle is the subject of a Product Liability report, GM-1241, related to the SIR system and is subject to a preliminary investigation-do NOT alter the SIR system in any manner.
- If the vehicle is involved in a campaign affecting the inflator modules-follow the instructions in the Campaign Service Bulletin for proper SIR handling procedures.
