together, and connect an alligator clip to each pair.
10. Connect a 12 volt battery to the tool.
-
If the green light on the tool comes on, the igniter circuit is defective and cannot deploy the component. Go to Disposal of Damaged
Components.
-
If the red light on the tool comes on, the component is ready to be deployed.
11. Push the tool's deployment switch. The airbags and tensioners should deploy (deployment is both highly audible and visible: a loud noise and rapid
inflation of the bag, followed by slow deflation).
-
If the components deploy and the green light on the tool comes on, continue with this procedure.
-
If a component doesn't deploy, yet the green light comes ON, its igniter is defective. Go to Disposal of Damaged components.
-
During deployment the airbag can become hot enough to burn you. Wait 30 minutes after deployment before touching the airbag.
12. Dispose of the complete airbag. No part of it can be reused. Place it in a sturdy plastic bag (A), and seal it securely.

Special Tool Required
Deployment tool 07HAZ-SG00500
Before scrapping any airbags, side airbags, or seat belt tensioners, (including those in a whole vehicle to be scrapped), the airbags, side airbags, or seat
belt tensioners, must be deployed. If the vehicle is still within the warranty period, the Honda District Service Manager must give approval and/or special
instruction before deploying the airbags, or side airbags, seat belt tensioners. Only after the airbags, side airbags, or seat belt tensioners have been
deployed (as the result of vehicle collision, for example), can they be scrapped. If the airbags, side airbags, and seat belt tensioners appear intact (not
deployed), treat them with extreme caution. Follow this procedure.
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 special tool is functioning properly by following the check procedure or 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 9,10, 11, and 12 of the in-vehicle deployment procedure.
