A connector housing for an air bag connector and a method for contacting an air bag connector. A connector housing having at least two sections is provided with locking elements for a pre-lock-in position and a final lock-in position. In the pre-lock-in position, both sections of the housing are arranged apart from one another and the pre-lock-in position is localized by means of a spacer to maintain the pre-lock-in position maintain at a predetermined distance so that electric conductors can be introduced into the connector housing. The spacer ensures that the connector housing is not inadvertently pressed from the pre-lock-in position to the final lock-in position. The connector housing can be pressed together for an insulation-piercing contact in the connector housing, and locked in the final lock-in position. The connector housing is furthermore provided with a belt arrangement, with the spacer being of a one-piece design with one of the elements of the belt arrangement. When the connector housing is pressed together to engage the line with the contacts, the belt arrangements are cut away so that the spacer is also removed with the belt arrangements.
