General Safety Guidelines (With SRS)
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
Certain vehicles include driver's side, and front passenger side, airbags, located in the steering wheel hub and dash, as part of a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). Servicing, disassembling or replacing these items will require special caution and tools and should therefore be done by a properly trained technician.
WARNING: Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal injury, caused by unintentional activation of the airbag.
All SRS electrical wiring harnesses are covered with yellow outer insulation, and related components are located in the steering column, center console, dash, and front fenders. Do not use electrical test equipment on these circuits.
Block the drive wheels, as a safety routine, before beginning any service with the vehicle on the ground.
Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Use jackstands, on a flat, level, hard surface, for safe support.
Always wear appropriate eye protection.
Use caution when working near the catalytic converter to prevent the possibility of burns. The temperatures within the converter can exceed 1200°F.
