PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE

GENERAL

00-20

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM 
(SRS) AND SEAT BELT WITH 
PRE-TENSIONER

M1001011600379

CAUTION

Items to review when servicing SRS:

1. Be sure to read GROUP 52B 

− Supplemental 

Restraint System (SRS). For safe operation, 
please follow the directions and heed all 
warnings.

2. Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting 

the battery cable before doing any further 
work. The SRS system is designed to retain 
enough voltage to deploy the air bag even 
after the battery has been disconnected. Seri-
ous injury may result from unintended air bag 
deployment if work is done on the SRS sys-
tem immediately after the battery cable is dis-
connected.

3. Warning labels must be heeded when servic-

ing or handling SRS components. Warning 
labels can be found in the following locations.

• Steering wheel
• Driver's air bag module
• Clock spring
• Passenger's (front) air bag module
• SRS-ECU
• Sun visor
• Seat belt with pre-tensioner [Driver's and 

passenger's (front) seat]

• Hood
• Front impact sensor
• Instrument panel
• Side air bag module
• Curtain air bag module

4. Always use the designated special tools and 

test equipment.

5. Store components removed from the SRS in a 

clean and dry place. The air bag module 
should be stored on a flat surface and placed 
so that the pad surface is facing upward. Do 
not place anything on top of it.

6. Never attempt to disassemble or repair the 

SRS components (SRS-ECU, air bag modules 
and clock spring).

7. Whenever you finish servicing the SRS, check 

the SRS warning lamp operation to make sure 
that the system functions properly.

8. Be sure to deploy the air bag before dispos-

ing of the air bag module or disposing of a 

vehicle equipped with an air bag (Refer to 
GROUP 52B 

− Air Bag Module Disposal Pro-

cedures).

Observe the following when carrying out opera-
tions on places where SRS components are 
installed, including operations not directly 
related to the SRS air bag.

1. When removing or installing parts, do not 

allow any impact or shock to the SRS compo-
nents.

2. If heat damage may occur during paint work, 

remove the SRS-ECU, the air bag modules, 
clock spring, the impact sensors and the seat 
belt with pre-tensioner.

• SRS-ECU, air bag modules, clock spring 

and impact sensors: 93 

°C or more

• Seat belt with pre-tensioner: 90 °C or more
