ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a method of folding away an air bag installed in front of the front passenger seat of an automobile. The bag has outwardly swelling longer side portions. The method is initiated by folding the longer side portions inwardly of the air bag to straighten both sides of the bag. The width of the shorter side portions perpendicular to the longer side portions is made slightly less than the width of an air bag case. Then, the bag is folded in alternate directions into zig-zag shape to create folds at right angles to the straightened sides. The folded bag is inserted into the case.
