AIRBAG SYSTEM
• Do not drop the airbag module, subject them to
high temperature over 93°C (199°F), or let water,
oil or grease get on them; the internal parts may be
damaged and reliability greatly lowered.
• If any damage, opening or rust is found on the
airbag system wire harness, do not attempt to re-
pair using soldering equipment. Replace the faulty
harness with a new genuine part.
• Install the wire harness securely with the speci-
fied clips to avoid interference or tangled up with
other parts.
General Description
• Do not allow water or oil to come in contact with
the connector terminals. Also do not touch the con-
nector terminals.
• Either of the airbag modules for driver's, passen-
ger's, side or curtain, or pretensioner must not be
disassembled.
