Customer Safety Information

WARNING:
^ MOUNTING ORIENTATION OF THE IMPACT SENSORS AND THE RCM IS CRITICAL FOR PROPER SYSTEM OPERATION. IF A VEHICLE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN A COLLISION IN WHICH THE CENTER TUNNEL AREA HAS BEEN DAMAGED, INSPECT THE RCM MOUNTING AREA FOR DEFORMATION. INSPECT THE IMPACT SENSOR MOUNTING AREA FOR DAMAGE. IF DAMAGED, THE RCM AND SENSORS MUST BE REPLACED WHETHER OR NOT THE AIR BAGS HAVE DEPLOYED. IN ADDITION, MAKE SURE THE MOUNTING AREA OF THE RCM AND IMPACT SENSORS ARE RESTORED TO THE ORIGINAL PRODUCTION CONFIGURATION.
^ IF THE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) IS BEING SERVICED, THE SYSTEM MUST BE DEACTIVATED AND RESTRAINT SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS MUST BE INSTALLED.
^ THE AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS MUST BE REMOVED AND THE AIR BAG MODULES RECONNECTED WHEN THE SYSTEM IS REACTIVATED TO AVOID NON-DEPLOYMENT IN A COLLISION, RESULTING IN POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
^ TO AVOID ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY, THE BACKUP POWER SUPPLY MUST BE DEPLETED BEFORE REPAIRING OR REPLACING ANY FRONT OR SIDE AIR BAG SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) COMPONENTS AND BEFORE SERVICING, REPLACING ADJUSTING OR STRIKING COMPONENTS NEAR THE FRONT OR SIDE AIR BAG SENSORS, SUCH AS DOORS, INSTRUMENT PANEL, CONSOLE, DOOR LATCHES, STRIKERS, SEATS AND HOOD LATCHES.
^ TO DEPLETE THE BACKUP POWER SUPPLY ENERGY, THE IGNITION MUST BE IN THE OFF POSITION, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY GROUND CABLE AND WAIT AT LEAST ONE MINUTE. BE SURE TO DISCONNECT AUXILIARY BATTERIES AND POWER SUPPLIES (IF EQUIPPED).
^ CARRY A LIVE AIR BAG MODULE WITH THE AIR BAG AND TRIM COVER POINTED AWAY FROM YOUR BODY. THIS WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT.
^ DO NOT SET A LIVE AIR BAG MODULE DOWN WITH THE TRIM COVER FACE DOWN. THIS WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT.
^ THE TIGHTENING TORQUE OF THE RESTRAINTS CONTROL MODULE (RCM) RETAINING BOLTS IS CRITICAL FOR CORRECT AIR BAG SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) OPERATION. REFER TO AIR BAG CONTROL MODULE FOR CORRECT TORQUE VALUES.
