01/11/2022Q: What should be cautioned in deploying an inflatable restraint instrument panel (IP) module?
A:
When you are storing an undeployed inflator module, you should make sure the bag opening points away from the surface on which the inflator module rests. When you are storing a steering column, you can't rest the column with the bag opening facing down and the column vertical. You should provide free space for the airbag to expand in case of an accidental deployment.
