Caution

General Description

CAUTION

1. Never connect the battery in reverse polarity.
- Doing so may immediately damage the A/C CM.

2. Do not disconnect the battery terminals while the engine is running.
- A large counter electromotive force will be generated in the generator, and this voltage may damage electronic parts such as A/C CM etc.

3. Before disconnecting the connectors of sensors and the A/C CM, be sure to turn off the ignition switch.
- A/C CM may be damaged.

4. Every A/C-related part is a precision part. Do not drop them.
5. Airbag system wiring harness is routed near the A/C control panel and junction box.

CAUTION:
- Do not use electrical test equipment on the airbag system wiring harness and connector.
- Be careful not to damage the airbag system wiring harness when servicing the A/C control panel and junction box.
