Hyundai Ioniq: Airbag Module / Airbag Module Disposal. Description and operation
When you scrap a vehicle equipped with an airbag, you must deploy it first.
When you deploy an airbag, you need to have a skilled mechanic do the work. The used airbag should not be reinstalled in another vehicle for reuse.

| •
| When you deploy an airbag, use a specially designated tool and select a place where there is no electric noise. |
| •
| When operating the airbag deployment tool, you must be at least 5 meters away from the airbag. |
