Customer Safety Information

WARNING: Failure to have the air bag system properly serviced may lead to possible injury in the event of an accident.


NOTE: Service and general information labels about the air bag system can be found on the driver's sun visor, the glove box door, and in the engine compartment.

PRECAUTIONS
Always wear safety glasses when servicing an air bag equipped vehicle or when handling an air bag module.

Because this system is a sensitive, complex electro-mechanical unit, before attempting to diagnose, remove or install any air bag system component, you must first disarm air bag system as outlined.

The fasteners, screws and bolts used for air bag components have special coatings and are specifically designed for air bag system. They must not be replaced with substitutes. If fastener replacement is required, use correct fasteners provided in service package.

Be careful when performing electrical tests so as to prevent accidental shorting of terminals. Such mistakes can damage fuses or components. Also, a second code could be set, making diagnosis of the original problem more difficult. Accidental airbag deployment could occur.
