WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Honda Insight and 2010 Honda Insight. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- 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 ), seat belt tensioner (see FRONT SEAT BELT REPLACEMENT ).
- 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. Twist the like colored wires together.
- Package the component in exactly the same packaging that the new replacement part came in.
- 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.
- Contact your Honda District Parts and Service Manager for instructions on how and where to return it for disposal.
