Airbag Units, Deploying (disposal)


WARNING!
DO NOT ignite airbag units in vehicles.



According to regulations, airbag units must be rendered unusable by igniting them electrically before scrapping the vehicle. This is necessary because the airbag unit is a pyrotechnic device that may cause injuries if activated in an improper manner (e.g. using a cutting torch).

- Remove airbag unit

Use J-44210 Deployment Fixture and refer to the Airbag & Pyrotechnic Deployment Device Instruction Booklet for proper deployment procedure.
