Precautions
General Precautions
Please read the following precautions carefully before performing the airbag system service. Observe the instructions
described in this manual, or the airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries. a. Except when performing electrical inspections, always turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative
cable from the battery, and wait at least three minutes before beginning work.
The contents in the memory are not erased even if the ignition switch is turned OFF or the battery cables are
disconnected from the battery.
b. Use the replacement parts which are manufactured to the same standards as the original parts and quality.
Do not install used SRS parts from another vehicle.
Use only new parts when making SRS repairs.
c. Carefully inspect any SRS part before you install it.
Do not install any part that shows signs of being dropped or improperly handled, such as dents, cracks or
deformation.
d.Before removing any of the SRS parts (including the disconnection of the connectors), always disconnect the SRS
connector.
Airbag Handling and Storage
Do not disassemble the airbags; it has no serviceable parts. Once an airbag has been deployed, it cannot be repaired
or reused.
For temporary storage of the air bag during service, please observe the following precautions.
a. Store the removed airbag with the pad surface up.
b. Keep free from any oil, grease, detergent, or water to prevent damage to the airbag assembly.

c.Store the removed airbag on secure, flat surface away from any high heat source (exceeding 85°C/185°F).
d. Never perform electrical inspections to the airbags, such as measuring resistance.
e. Do not position yourself in front of the airbag assembly during removal, inspection, or replacement.
f. Refer to the scrapping procedures for disposal of the damaged airbag.
g. Be careful not to bump or impact the SRS unit or the side impact sensors whenever the ignition switch is ON, wait
at least three minutes after the ignition switch is turned OFF before begin work.
h. During installation or replacement, be careful not to bump (by impact wrench, hammer, etc.) the area around the
SRS unit and the side impact sensor. The airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injury.
i. After a collision in which the airbags were deployed, replace the front airbags and the SRS unit. After a collision in
which the side airbag was deployed, replace the side airbag, the front impact sensor and side impact sensor on
the side where the side airbag deployed and the SRS unit. After a collision in which the airbags or the side air
bags did not deploy, inspect for any damage or any deformation on the SRS unit and the side impact sensors. If
there is any damage, replace the SRS unit, the front impact sensor and/or the side impact sensors.
j. Do not disassemble the SRS unit, the front impact sensor or the side impact sensors
k. Turn the ignition switch OFF, disconnect the battery negative cable and wait at least three minutes before
beginning installation or replacement of the SRS unit.
l. Be sure the SRS unit, the front impact sensor and side impact sensors are installed securely with the mounting
bolts.
m. Do not spill water or oil on the SRS unit,or the front impact sensor or the side impact sensors and keep them
away from dust.
n. Store the SRS unit, the front impact sensor and the side impact sensors in a cool (less than 40°C/104°F) and dry
(less than 80% relative humidity, no moisture) area.
Wiring Precautions
SRS wiring can be identified by special yellow outer covering (except the SRS circuits under the front seats).
Observe the instructions described in this section.
a. Never attempt to modify, splice, or repair SRS wiring.
If there is an open or damage in SRS wiring, replace the harness.

INSPECTION
TAPE HEAD AND CAPSTAN CLEANING
1. To obtain optimum performance, clean the head, and capstan as often as necessary, depending on frequency of
use and tape cleanness.
