1. When the passenger-side air bag module receives an operation (deployment) signal from the SAS control module, the igniter built into inflator No.1 builds up heat and ignites the booster.
2. The ignition of the inflammation agent causes the combustion of a gas-generating agent which releases nitrogen gas. Simultaneously, the check valve pin is pushed by pressure generated from the booster, breaking the outlet closure disc.
3. The nitrogen gas mixes with the charged argon gas.
4. The mixed gas (nitrogen and argon gas) passes through the opened outlet, is cooled at the filter and the filtrate is injected into the air bag.
