To prevent serious injury or death from severe burns or electric shock, avoid touching, cutting, or breaching
any orange colored power cable or high voltage component.
Before touching any high voltage parts, wiring, terminals or connector after the service disconnect plug has

been removed, wait more than 10 minutes for the high voltage charge in the condenser to dissipate.
The SRS may remain powered for up to 60 seconds after the vehicle is shut off or disabled. To prevent serious
