UNDEPLOYED AIRBAG MODULE DISPOSAL
1. |
If the vehicle is to be scrapped,
junked, or otherwise disposed of, deploy the airbag inside the
vehicle. |
2. |
Since there is a loud noise when the
airbag is deployed, avoid residential areas whenever possible.
If anyone is nearby, give warning of the impending
noise. |
3. |
Since a large amount of smoke is
produced when the airbag is deployed, select a well-ventilated
site. Moreover, never attempt the test near a fireor smoke
sensor. | |
DEPLOYMENT INSIDE THE VEHICLE
1. |
Open all windows and doors of the vehicle.
Move the vehicle to an isolated
spot. |
2. |

battery cables from the battery terminals, and then remove the
battery from the vehicle

Before deploying the airbag in
this manner, first check to be sure that there is no one
in or near the vehicle. Wear safety
