Seats and Seat Belts
Do not attempt to service or to disassemble the
SPACE module. The SPACE module cannot be
serviced. Doing so could result in severe bodily
injury or death.
Although the air bag/SPACE system components
will not likely explode, self-deploy, or produce
shrapnel, take care when it is necessary to re-
place or perform work around the air bag/SPACE
system components. Review and comply with the
following list of warnings. Failure to do so could
result in severe injury or death.
•
Do not cut, drill, braze, solder, weld, strike,
or probe any part of the air bag/SPACE sys-
tem.
•
Keep all liquids, acids, halogens, heavy
metals, and heavy salts away from the air
bag/SPACE system.
•
Do not expose the air bag/SPACE system
components to electricity.
•
Do not attempt to adapt, reuse, or install an
air bag/SPACE system in any vehicle other
than the specific vehicle for which it is de-
signed.
•
Keep hands and tools away from the scis-
sor points under the seats.
•
Do not cut wires or tamper with the connec-
tors between the vehicle wiring harness
and the air bag/SPACE system. Cutting or
removing the electrical connectors could
cause unintentional deployment.
•
Do not expose the air bag/SPACE system to
electricity. Never probe a circuit.
•
Store, transport, dispose, and recycle de-
ployed air bag/SPACE system components
in accordance with all applicable federal,
state, and local regulations.
•
Replace damaged seat belts or seat belts
that were worn in an accident, and check all
anchoring points. Only qualified personnel
familiar with air bag/SPACE systems should
replace the seat belts used in a vehicle with
an air bag/SPACE system.
•
The air bag/SPACE system requires a spe-
cial seat belt. Care must be taken to be
sure the correct seat belt is used.
•
Keep all heavy objects in the cab secured.
