GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING: Do not use rear facing child seats in
the front passenger seat if the vehicle is fitted
with a passenger airbag.
Component handling
WARNING: It is imperative that before any work
is undertaken on the SRS system the appropriate
information is read thoroughly.
WARNING: Replace the airbag every 10 years.
Do not install used SRS parts from another car.
When repairing an SRS system, always use
approved new parts.
Carefully inspect the airbag module before
installing it. Do not install an airbag module that
shows signs of being dropped or improperly
handled, such as dents, cracks or deformation.
Do not try to disassemble or tamper with the
airbag module.
Special bolts are necessary for installing the
airbag module. Do not use other bolts.
The SRS components are sensitive and potentially
hazardous if not handled correctly; always comply
with the following handling precautions:
Preliminary procedures
The SRS system uses energy reserve capacitors
that keep the system active in the event of electrical
supply failure under crash conditions. It is necessary
to allow the capacitors sufficient time to discharge in
order to avoid the risk of accidental deployment.
l
Never drop an SRS component. The airbag
Diagnostic Control Unit (DCU) is a particularly
shock sensitive device and must be handled
with extreme care. Airbag modules and seat belt
pretensioner units could deploy if subjected to a
strong shock.
Always remove the ignition key from the starter
switch, disconnect the vehicle battery and wait 10
minutes before commencing work on the SRS
system.
l
l
Never wrap your arms around an airbag
module. If an airbag module has to be carried,
hold it by the cover, with the cover uppermost
and the base away from your body.
Never transport airbag modules or seat belt
pretensioners in the cabin of a vehicle. Always
use the luggage compartment of the vehicle for
carrying airbag modules and seat belt
pretensioner units.
Carefully inspect any SRS component before
installation. Do not install any SRS component that
shows signs of damage such as dents, cracks or
deformity.
WARNING: The airbag module contains sodium
azide which is poisonous and extremely
flammable. Contact with water, acid or heavy
metals may produce harmful or explosive
compounds. Do not dismantle, incinerate or
bring into contact with electricity, before the unit
has been deployed.
