Disposal

 

·   Airbag units must be rendered useless according to Opel / Vauxhall regulations by electric deployment before scrapping.

 

·   Airbag units may only be deployed in a vehicle as a fixed installation.

 

·   Remove all loose objects beforehand from the expansion area of the airbag.

 

·   Deployment with the doors dosed and side windows open.

 

·   Deployment only on suitable empty ground.

 

·   Use only the special deployment tool KM - 799.

 

·   Bystanders who may be affected should be informed of the noise level.

 

·   Stand in front of the vehicle; this also applies to uninvolved bystanders.

 

·   Maintain a safe distance of approx. 10 m / 10 yards from the vehicle on deployment.

 

·   Connect the voltage source last.

 

·   Non - deployed airbag units must never be disposed of with "normal" refuse.

 

·   If deployment fails, wait approx. 5 minutes before approaching the vehicle and disconnect the voltage source beforehand.

 

·   Remove non - deployable airbag units and return them in a new set of their original packaging, ordered in advance.

 

·   Allow deployed airbag unit to cool for 15 minutes before removal.
