Oxygen Sensor: Service Precautions

CAUTION:
- In their operating environment, oxygen sensors are quite durable. However, they are easily damaged if dropped, exposed to excessive heat, or contaminated. Care should be taken when handling oxygen sensors.

- Be careful when replacing an oxygen sensor. Contamination of the sensor body can lead to premature failure. The sensor threads must be sealed with the material provided to ensure there are no oxygen leaks. DO NOT use silicone sealants for this purpose as they will contaminate the sensor.
