Safety Precautions


When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following due to clearance issues:

Route all wires and lines so that the original path is followed.

Ensure sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components.

If special testing equipment is required during road test, note the following:

Testing and measuring instruments must be secured on the rear seat and operated by a second technician.

If the vehicle is involved in a collision while testing and measuring equipment is operated from the front passenger seat, the person sitting in that seat could be seriously injured when the airbag deploys.
