Before scrapping any airbags (including those in a whole
car ro be scrappedl, the airbags must be deployed. lf the
car is still within the warranty period, before you deploy
the airbags, the Acura District Technical Manager mustgive approval and/or special instructions. Only after theairbags have been deployed (as the result of vehicle colli-
sion, for example). can they be scrapped.
lf the airbags appear intact (not deployed). treat themwith extreme caution.
Follow this procedure:
Deploying the Airbags: In"vehicle
NOTE: lf an SRS vehicle is to be entirely scrapped. itsairbags should be deployed while still in the vehicle. Theairbags should not be considered as salvageable parts
and should never be installed in another vehicle.
E@ Contirm that each airbsg is securelymounted; otherwise, severe personal iniury could resultfrom deployment.
1. Disconnect the battery negative cable, then discon-nect the positive cable.
2. Confirm that the special tool is functioning properly
by following the check procedure on the label onthe tool or on page 23-321.
