Undeployed Air Bag - Preparation of vehicle for disposal

NOTE:
Remote Deployment
1
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
WARNING: Carry a live air bag module with the air bag and trim cover or deployment door pointed away from your body. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
WARNING: Before proceeding, make sure precautions have been taken to warn personnel of a possible loud noise upon activation. Do not allow anybody to approach closer to SRS device than 15 Meters (50 Feet). Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
WARNING: Do not place the driver or passenger air bag module with the trim cover or deployment door facing down, as the forces of the deploying air bag module can cause it to ricochet and cause personal injury. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
Remove any loose debris from around air bag module. Make sure that no flammable liquids are present.
2 Disconnect the battery ground cable.
3 Disconnect the air bag module electrical connector.
4 Connect the special tool adaptor lead to the air bag module.
5 Connect the special tool lead to the air bag deployment tool adaptor lead. Pass the special tool lead through the window, close all doors, leave the window with the special tool lead open.
6
WARNING: Make sure all personnel are a minimum of 15 Meters (50 Feet) away from the SRS component. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
Connect the special tool to a 12V battery.
7
WARNING: Do not handle the deployed air bag module immediately after activation - it may be hot. Allow the air bag module to cool. Cooling air bag modules should be continuously monitored to make sure the heat does not create a fire with spilled liquids or other debris. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
Deploy the air bag module by operating both of the switches on the special tool. If deployment does not occur, disconnect the special tool from the battery and seek advice from Land Rover.
8 Repeat the procedure for all of the air bag modules in the vehicle.
9 The vehicle can now be disposed of in the normal manner with the air bag modules installed.
