When storing an airbag on a workbench, how should it be positioned for safety?

When storing an airbag on a workbench, it is safest to position it face up. This orientation helps minimize the risk of accidental deployment. Airbags are designed to deploy with force, and placing them face up allows for safe handling and reduces the danger if the airbag were to be triggered inadvertently.

Storing an airbag face down could increase the risk of deployment if pressure is applied accidentally from above or if the airbag is disturbed. Facing the wall or away from the wall does not adequately address the inherent safety risks associated with the airbag's design and potential activation when mishandled. Therefore, keeping the airbag face up is the recommended practice for ensuring safety during storage.
