Disposal of Damaged Components

  1. If installed in a vehicle, follow the removal procedure for the driver's airbag (see DRIVER'S AIRBAG REPLACEMENT  ), front passenger's airbag (see FRONT PASSENGER'S AIRBAG REPLACEMENT  ), side airbag (see SIDE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT  ), side curtain airbag (see SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG REPLACEMENT  ), and seat belt tensioner (see FRONT SEAT BELT REPLACEMENT ).
  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 colored 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," and "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 how and where to return it for disposal.
