PRECAUTION

1. Precaution

A: CAUTION

Please clearly understand and adhere to the follow-
ing general precautions. They must be strictly fol-
lowed to avoid minor or serious injury to the person
doing the work or people in the area.

1. ABS

Handle the ABS as a total system. Do not disas-
semble or attempt to repair parts which are not in-
structed in this manual. Follow the directions in this
manual when performing maintenance on the AB-
SCM&H/U. When parts other than those specified
are disassembled, it is possible that the ABS sys-
tem will not operate when needed or cause it to op-
erate incorrectly and result in injury.

2. VEHICLE DYNAMICS CONTROL (VDC)

Handle the VDC as a total system. Do not disas-
semble or attempt to repair individual parts. Follow
the directions in this manual when performing
maintenance on the VDCCM&H/U. When parts
other than those specified are disassembled, it is
possible that the VDC system will not operate when
needed or cause it to operate incorrectly and result
in injury.

3. BRAKE FLUID

If brake fluid gets in your eyes or on your skin, do
the following:
• Wash eyes and seek immediate medical atten-
tion.
• Wash your skin with soap and then rinse thor-
oughly with water.

4. RADIATOR FAN

The radiator fan may rotate without warning, even
when the engine is not ON. Do not place your hand,
cloth, tools or other items near the fan at any time.

5. ROAD TEST

Always conduct road tests in accordance with traf-
fic rules and regulations to avoid bodily injury and
interrupting traffic.

ment of airbags and unnecessary maintenance, fol-
low the instructions in this manual when performing

wheel apron, front side frame, bumper, hood, front
fender), around side of the vehicle (front door, rear
door, center pillar, rear fender, side sill, rear wheel
apron), around rear of the vehicle (rear seat cush-
ion, rear floor, rear crossmember) and the airbag
wiring harnesses or nearby.
To prevent unexpected deployment, turn the igni-
tion switch to OFF and disconnect the ground ter-
minal from battery, then wait at least 20 seconds
before starting work.

7. AIRBAG AND SEAT BELT

er waste. Follow all government regulations con-
cerning disposal of refuse.

8. AIRBAG MODULE

Adhere to the following when handing and storing
the airbag module to prevent bodily injury from un-
expected deployment:
• Do not hold the harnesses or connectors to carry
the module.
• Do not face the bag in the direction that it opens
towards yourself or other people.
• Do not face the bag in the direction that it opens
towards the floor or walls.

9. AIRBAG SPECIAL TOOL

cial tools.

any glass to prevent glass fragments from damag-
ing your eyes.

sive when attaching glass to prevent it from coming
