Failure to follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of the safety canopy and cause serious personal injury or death.

CAUTION:Use the correct probe adapter(s) when taking measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
NOTE:Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) components should only be disconnected or reconnected when instructed to do so within a pinpoint test step. Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect diagnosis of the SRS.
NOTE:The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
