Deploying Components Out of the Vehicle
If an intact airbag or tensioner has been removed from a scrapped vehicle, or has been found defective or damaged during transit, storage, or service, it
should be deployed as follows:
1. Confirm that the deployment tool is functioning properly by following the check procedure Deploying Airbags in the Vehicle on the tool label.
2. Position the airbag face up, outdoors, on flat ground, at least 30 feet (10 meters) from any obstacles or people.
3. Follow steps 9 through 12 of the in-vehicle deployment procedure.
NOTE: The driver's and front passenger's airbags have dual inflators. Twist each pair of unlike colored wires together, and clip an alligator clip to
each pair.
Disposal of Damaged Components
1. If installed in a vehicle, follow the removal procedure for the driver's airbag, front passenger's airbag, side airbag, side curtain airbag, and seat belt
tensioner.
2. In all cases, make a short circuit by cutting, stripping, and twisting together the two inflator wires.
NOTE: The driver's and front passenger's airbags have dual inflators. The like color wires go to the individual inflators.
3. Package the component in exactly the same packaging that the new replacement part came in.
4. Mark the outside of the box "DAMAGED AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYED," "DAMAGED SIDE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYED," "DAMAGED SIDE
CURTAIN AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYED," "DAMAGED SEAT BELT TENSIONER NOT DEPLOYED" so it does not get confused with your
parts stock.
5. Contact your Acura District Parts and Service Manager for how and where to return it for disposal.
Deployment Tool Check
1. Connect the yellow clips to both switch protector handles on the tool; connect the red lead to the positive battery post, and the black lead to the
negative battery post.
2. Push the operation switch: green means the tool is OK; red means the tool is faulty.
3. Disconnect the red and black leads from the battery.
4. Disconnect the yellow clips from the handles.
