DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY OF AIRBAG

Safety measures to be taken when working on the airbag system: the works include inspection,
assembly and maintenance. These operations can only be carried out by the appropriate
professionals.

ATTENTION ON SAFETY MATTERS

1. Generally diagnostic tester must be used for diagnosis. Never use volt-meter or any other

open wire tester.

2. The negative grid of battery must be disconnected before working on the airbag. After

dismantling, wait for at least 90 minutes before carrying the following work and no body
should stay in the car when connecting the airbag to the battery supply.

3. The airbag must be installed immediately after taken out from the packing.

4. If the assembly stops, the airbag must be placed back into packing, because it is not allowed

to leave the air bag out of control.

5. When handling the airbag, face the inflating device outwards, and should never hold the

cable.

6. When dismantling the airbag and parts awaiting assembly, you must place them on the

surface of the bottom seat, face the side with welded split upwards and do not place the
steering gear with steering wheel on the floor.

7. If an air bag unit is dropped from a height of more than 70cm, or if it appears to have signs of

damage, then it cannot be reinstalled.

8. If there is no appropriate monitor, then the disposal of the airbag cannot be carried out. If this

device is activated, then you should place it in an appropriate container. If it is not activated,
then you should mark the content and use a packing for the new device to pack it and return
to the manufacturer through the spare part shop.

9. Do not try to repair the module, sensor and ignition device.

10. Only use dry or dipped cloth to clean the filling materials in the steering wheel.

11. Do not use sharp or other protruded object to contact the surface of the airbag.

12. When it is necessary to do paint spraying or welding on the vehicle equipped with airbag,

then the airbag must be first removed.

Disassembly:

1. Disconnect the negative grid of the battery,

place the steering wheel at the center
position and face the hand wheel upwards.

Loosen the two hexagonal bolts between the
driver’s airbag and steering wheel.

Remove the cable of the airbag. When placing
the removed cable, pay attention to face the
protruded side down.

ASSEMBLY

When installing, the steps are reverse with the
above. Make sure there is nobody in the
passenger compartment when installing the
battery.

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY OF

HAIRSPRING

1. First, remove the airbag according to the

above instruction.

2. Loosen the two fastening bolts at the

bottom of the housing of the steering
gear and remove the cover.

3. Loosen the lock nut between the steering

gear and the steering wheel, and disconnect
the terminal according to the arrow of the
diagram.

3. Loosen the three fastening bolts between

the hairspring and the steering gear and
remove the hairspring.

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY OF THE
CONTROL DEVICE

Disassembly：

Disconnect the negative grid of the battery.

Disconnect the wiring terminal of the airbag control
unit, which is located on the vent under the instrument
panel.

Remove the air intake, which is beside the airbag
control unit under the auxiliary instrument panel.

Loosen the lock nut between the airbag control unit and the bracket.

When installing the control unit, the steps are the reverse of disassembly.

Note:

There must be nobody in the driver’s compartment when reconnecting the battery

Assembly:

The steps are the reverse of disassembly.

Note:

1. When the lower terminal of hairspring is connected to the steering gear, it will stay at the
bottom position. Unless the following lifting eye indicated by the arrow in the figure, the
hairspring can not be rotated. If the hairspring is found to receive the pressure when tightening
the lock nut of the steering gear with a torque of 5ON.m, then the function is proved to be
normal. Inspect the cable and the hairspring of airbag. Remove the cover of airbag and its
protective cover; remove the battery and control unit.

2. It is dangerous to use the unused airbag inflator to activate the airbag device. In order to
prevent any potential accident, the airbag must be activated before the car is discarded or when
the servicing dates of the airbag activation components have expired. This is very important
because the exposed part may cause injury when it is suddenly activated by itself. The airbag
must be activated in the car with the door closed and the people involved must stay at least 10
meters away from the car during activation. When carrying the activation of the airbag together
with the airbag inflator of driver side, then it is required to remove them from the steering
wheel, and it is only necessary to remove the 2 hexagon lock nuts on that position during
disassembly. Connect the special cable, change the device on the steering wheel with the spare
part and tighten the hexagon lock nuts. The activated airbag can be treated as a common
scrapped container. It can be left in the car if the car has already been scrapped. If there is any
fault found (fault found during inspection that may affect its normal function), then it must be
noted and returned to the manufacturer through the spare parts shop. Use special packing for
new unit when the defective airbag is being returned.
