Technician Safety Information

Safety precautions

If special testing equipment is required during test drive, note the following:
Do not operate test and measuring equipment from the passenger seat. In the event of an accident involving deployment of the passenger-side airbag, the person seated there could be injured.

WARNING!
^ When driving or riding in an airbag equipped vehicle, NEVER hold the scan tool or other test equipment in your hands or lap while in motion. Objects between you and the airbag increase the risk of injury in an accident.
^ During a road test in an airbag-equipped vehicle, test equipment must always be fastened to and operated from the rear seat by a second technician.
