DISPOSAL OF DEPLOYABLE DEVICES AND PYROTECHNIC DEVICES THAT ARE DEPLOYED

1. Depower the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). See Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Depowering And Repowering.

2. Remove the deployed device. See the appropriate procedure.

3. Dispose of the deployed device in the same manner as any other part to be scrapped.

NOTE:If a dual stage driver or passenger air bag module has deployed due to a crash event, the air bag module requires manual deployment to make sure both stages have deployed before scrapping the vehicle or disposing of the air bag module. To determine if a vehicle is equipped with dual stage driver or passenger air bag modules, see Description and Operation.
