Deployment tool 07HAZ-SG00500
Before scrapping any airbags, side airbags, side curtain
airbags, seat belt tensioners, or seat belt buckle
tensioner (including those in a whole vehicle to be
scrapped), the part(s) must be deployed. If the vehicle is
still within the warranty period, the Honda District Parts
and Service Manager must give approval and/or special
instructions before deploying the part(s). Only after the
part(s) have been deployed (as the result of vehicle
collision, for example), can they be scrapped.
If the parts appear intact (not deployed), treat them with
extreme caution. Follow this procedure.
If an SRS equipped vehicle is to be entirely scrapped, its
airbags, side airbags, side curtain airbags, seat belt
tensioners, and seat belt buckle tensioner should be
deployed while still in the vehicle. These parts should
not be considered as salvageable parts and should
never be installed in another vehicle.1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), then disconnect the negative cable from the battery,
then wait at least 3 minutes before starting work.
2. Confirm that each airbag, side airbag, side curtain airbag, seat belt tensioner, or seat belt buckle
tensioner is securely mounted.
3. Confirm that the deployment tool is functioning properly by following the check procedure on the
tool label.
4. Remove the access panel (A) from the steering wheel, then disconnect the driver’s airbag 4P
connector (B) from the cable reel. 5. Remove the glove box, then disconnect the front
passenger’s airbag 4P connector (A) from the
dashboard wire harness.
6. Disconnect the side airbag 2P connector (A) from the floor wire harness.
7. Disconnect the floor wire harness 2P connector from the side curtain airbag (A).

together, and clip an alligator clips (A) from the
deployment tool to each pair.
NOTE: Place the deployment tool at least 30 ft (10 m) away from the vehicle.
 The driver’s and front passenger’s airbags have dual inflators. Twist each pair of unlike colored

Deploying Components Out of the Vehicle

Airbag and Tensioner Disposal (cont’d)

11. Connect a 12 V battery to the tool.
 If the green light on the tool comes on, the ignitercircuit 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.
12. 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 does not deploy, and the green light comes ON, its igniter is defective. Go to
Disposal of Damaged Components.
 During deployment, the airbags can become hot enough to burn you. Wait for 30 minutes after
deployment before touching the airbags.
13. Dispose of the complete airbag. No part of it can be reused. Place it in a sturdy plastic bag (A), and seal
it securely. Dispose of the deployed airbag
according to your local regulations. 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 ft (10 m) from any obstacles or
people.
3. Follow steps 10 through 13 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 ComponentsDeployment Tool Check

1. If installed in a vehicle, follow the removal
procedure for the driver’s airbag (see page 24-188),
front passenger’s airbag (see page 24-189), side
airbag (see page 24-191), side curtain airbag
(see page 24-192), seat belt tensioner (see page
24-4), and seat belt buckle tensioner (see page 24-6).
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, or 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 instructions on how and where to
return it for disposal. 1. Connect the yellow clips to both switch protector
handles on the tool.
2. Then connect the red lead to the positive battery post and the black lead to the negative battery post.
3. Push the operation switch: The green light should come on, indicating that the tool is operating
properly and is ready for use. If the red light stays
on, the tool is faulty, and another one must be used
for the procedure.
