Airbag and Tensioner Disposal

1. Cut off each connector, and strip the ends of the wires. Twist each pair of unlike colored wires together, and clip an alligator clips (A) from the deployment tool to each pair. Place the deployment tool at least 10 meters (30 feet) away from the vehicle.

1. 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.

1. 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.
