Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming

(b) Work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned off and the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal.

CAUTION:
* The SRS is equipped with a back-up power source. If work is started within 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, the SRS may deploy.
* Never use a back-up power source (battery or other) to avoid clearing the system memory. The back-up power source may inadvertently power the SRS and cause it to deploy.
(c) When the cable is disconnected from the negative (- ) battery terminal, the memory of various systems will be cleared. Because of this, be sure to make a record of the contents memorized in each system before starting work. When work is finished, adjust each system to its previous state.
