Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)


SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
Vehicles with driver's side airbag, located in the steering wheel hub, and some with passenger, and side air bags are part of a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). Servicing, disassembling or replacing these items will require special caution and tools and should therefore be done by a properly trained technician.

WARNING:
* To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which can lead to personal injury or death in the event of a severe frontal collision, all maintenance must be performed by a properly trained technician.

* Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal injury caused by unintentional activation of the airbag.

* All SRS electrical wiring harnesses are covered with yellow outer insulation, and related components are located in the steering column, center console, dash, and front fenders. Do not use electrical test equipment on these circuits
