How do I deactivate the Smart's passenger airbag?

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Airbag

In order to deactivate the Smart passenger airbag, the dashboard must be completely disassembled on the passenger side so that the connector inside can be disconnected. It will be necessary to open the passenger door to unscrew the side bolt of the dashboard; then you will have to open the glovebox on the passenger side to loosen the screws inside and remove it completely, disconnecting the connector connected to the airbag control module. In this way the passenger airbag will no longer operate and all the removed components can be mounted.
