Airbag
Disposal
Before scrapping any airbags (including those in a wholevehicle to be scrapped), the airbags must be deployed. lfthe vehicle is still within the warranty period, before youdeploy the airbags, the Honda District Service Managermust give approval and/or special instructions. Onlv afterthe airbags have been deployed (as the result of vehiclecollision, for example), can they be scrapped.lf the airbags appear intact (not deployed). treat themwith extreme caution.
Follow this p.ocedure:
Deploying the Airbags: In.vehiclo
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 partsand should never be installed in another veh;cle.
!@ confirm thst oach airbag assembty issecurely mounted; otharwiso. sev€re personal iniurycould result lrom deployment.
1. Disconnect the baftery negative cable, then discon_nect the positive cable.
2. Confirm that the special tool is functioning properlyby following the check procedure on the tool labelor on page 24-'l'l .

3. Remove the access panel, then disconnect the 2pconnector between the driver,s airbag and the cablereet.

NOTE:
. Before installing the steering wheel, the front
wheels should be aligned straight ahead.. Be sure to install the harness wires so that theyare not pinched or interfering with other parts.. After reassembly. confirm that the wheels arestill turned straight ahead and that the steeringwheel spoke angle is correct (road test). lf minor
spoke angle adjustment is necessary, do so onlyby adjusting the tie-rods, not by removing andrepositioning the steering wheel.
Set the cancel sleeve so that the projections arealigned venically.
