SIR lnflator Module Handling and Storage
Caution
Caution: When you are carrying an undeployed
inflator module:
• Do not carry the inflator module by the wires
or connector on the inflator module
O
Make sure the bag opening points away
.from you ·
When you are storing an undeployed inflator ·
module, make sure the bag opening points away
from the surface on which the inflator module
rests. When you are storing a steering column, do
not rest the column with the bag opening facing
down and the column vertical. Provide free
space for the air bag to expand in case of an
accidental deployment. Otherwise, personal injury
may result.
SIR Special Tool Caution
Caution: In order to avoid deploying the air bag
when troubleshooting the SIR system, use only the
equipment specified in this manual and the
instructions given in this manual. Failure to use
the specified equipment as instructed could cause
air bag deployment, personal injury to you or
someone else, or unnecessary SIR system repairs.
Vehicle lifting Caution
Caution: To avoid any vehicle damage, serious
personal injury or death when major components
are removed from the vehicle and the vehicle
is supported by a hoist, support the vehicle with
jack stands at the opposite end from which
the components are being removed.
Window Removal Caution
Caution: When working with any type of glass, use
approved safety glasses and gloves to reduce
the chance of personal injury.
Window Retention Caution
Caution: When replacing stationary windows,
Urethane Adhesive Kit GM PIN 12346392, or
a urethane adhesive system meeting GM
Specification GM3651 M, must be used to maintain
original installation integrity. Failure to use the
urethane adhesive· kit will result in poor retention
of the window which may allow unrestrained
occupants to be ejected from the vehicle resulting
in personal injury.
Preface
Work Stall Test Caution
Caution: One or more of the following guidelines
may apply when performing specific required tests
in the work stall:
• When a test requires spinning the drive
wheels with the vehicle jacked up, adhere to
the following precautions:
- Do not exceed 56 km/h (35 mph) when
spinning one drive wheel with the
other drive wheel stopped. This .limit ;s
necessary because the speedometer
indicates only one-half the actual vehicle
speed under these conditions. Personal
injury may result from excessive
wheel spinning.
--' If all of the drive wheels are spinning at
the same speed, do not exceed 112 km/h
(70 mph). Personal injury may result
from excessive wheel spinning.
- All persons should stay clear of the
rotating components and the balance
weight areas in order to avoid possible
personal injury.
- When running an engine in the repair stall
for an extended period of time, use care
not to overheat the engine and the
transmission.
• When a test requires jacking up the vehicle
and running with the wheels and brake
rotors removed, adhere to the following
precautions:
- Support the suspension of all drive
wheels at normal ride height.
- Do not apply the brake with the brake
rotors removed.
- Do not place the transmission in PARK
with the drive wheels still spinning.
- Tum Off the ignition in order to stop the
powertrain components from spinning.
Air in the Power Steering System Notice
Notice: If the power steering system has been
serviced, an accurate fluid level reading cannot be
obtained unless air is bled from the steering system.
The air in the fluid may cause pump cavitation
noise and may cause pump damage over a period
of time.
Anti-Corrosion Materials Notice
Notice: Anti-corrosion compounds have been applied
to the interior surfaces of some metal panels to
provide rust resistance. W.hen servicing these panels
in areas on which this material has been disturbed,
or when installing new panels, avoid corrosion damage
by coating with anti-corrosion compound.
