Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System

The Supplemental Restraint System "Airbag"
helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the
driver in a frontal collision.
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of
an airbag module (located in the center of the
steering wheel), sensors, a control unit, warning
light, wiring harness and spiral cable.
Information necessary to service the safety is
included
in the "5-5. SUPPLEMENTAL RE-
STRAINT SYSTEM" of this Service Manual.
WARNING :
To avoid rendering the Airbag system inoper-
ative, which could lead to personal injury or
death in the event of a severe frontal collision,
all maintenance must be performed by an
authorized SUBARU dealer .
Improper maintenance, including incorrect re-
moval and installation of the Airbag system,
can lead to personal injury caused by uninten-
tional activation of the Airbag system .
" All Airbag system electrical wiring harnesses
and connectors are covered with yellow outer
insulation . Do not use electrical test equipment
on any circuit related to the Supplemental
Restraint System "Airbag" .
