GENERAL INFORMATION

03-19

WARNING: Do not use rear facing child seats in 
the front passenger seat if the vehicle is fitted 
with a passenger airbag.

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.

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.

Always remove the ignition key from the starter 
switch, disconnect the vehicle battery and wait 10 
minutes before commencing work on the SRS 
system.

Carefully inspect any SRS component before 
installation. Do not install any SRS component that 
shows signs of damage such as dents, cracks or 
deformity.

Component handling

The SRS components are sensitive and potentially 
hazardous if not handled correctly; always comply 
with the following handling precautions:

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.

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.

l

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.

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.
