iiCAUTION: SRS diagnosis unit
This unit cannot be repaired.
If defective, remove and replace entire unit per
service manual instructions.
Do not disassemble or tamper.
See service manual for handling and storage
instructions.Driver’s air bag information
This vehicle
ha% an air bag which will supple-
ment the driver’s seatbelt in certain frontal
collisions. The air bag is not a substitute for the
driver’s seatbelt in any type of collision. The
driver, and all other occupants, should wear
seatbelts at all times.
WARNING!
If the “SRS” warning light does not come.on
for about 7 seconds when ignition key is turned
to “ON” or engine is started, or if it stays on
while driving, drive the vehicle to your nearest
authorized dealer right away. Also do so if
vehicle’s front end is damaged or if air bag has
deployed.
The air bag system must be inspected by an
authorized dealer ten years after vehicle manu-
facture date shown on certification label lo-
cated on left front door-latch post or door
frame.Read “SRS” section of your owner’s manual
before driving, for important information, about
Dperation, service and disposal of the air bag
svstem.
Do no drop: keep dry.
Failure to follow instructions could render air
bag inoperative and result in driver injury.
F. CAUTION: SRS
Before replacing steering wheel, read service
manual, center front wheels
ahd align SRS
clock spring neutral marks.
Failure to do so may render SRS system
inoperative, risking serious driver injury.

J.WARNING: SRS
This air bag module cannot be repaired. Do not
disassemble or tamper.
Do not perform diagnosis. Do not touch with
electrical test equipment or probes. Refer to
service manual for further instructions, and for
special handling, storage and disposal proce-
dures.
Tampering or mishandling can result in injury.
Danger! Poison. Keep out of the reach of
children.
Contains sodium acid and potassium nitrate
contents are poisonous and extremely flamm-
able. Contact with acid, water, or heavy metals
may produce harmful and irritating gases or
explosive compounds. Do not dismantle, in-
cinerate or bring into contact with electricity or
store at temperatures exceeding
(93.3”C)
200°F.Fast aid: If contents are swallowed induce
vomiting. For eye contact flush eye with water
for 15 minutes. If gases from acid or water
contact are inhaled, seek fresh air. In every
case, get prompt medical attention.
For additional information, see material safety
data sheet (MSDS) for this product.
CAUTION: SRS clock spring
This is not a repairable part. Do not disassem-
ble or tamper.
If defective, remove and replace entire unit per
service manual instructions.
Before replacement, read service manual, cen-
ter front wheels and align neutral marks.
Failure to
foHow instructions may render SRS
system inoperative, risking serious driver in-
jury.CAUTION: SRS
Before removal of steering gearbox, read ser-
vice manual, center front wheels and remove
ignition key.
Failure to do so may damage SRS clock spring
and render SRS system inoperative, risking
serious driver injury.

SRS CONNECTOR CONSTRUCTIONThe connector of the SRS diagnosis unit has a double lock
mechanism, fit verification mechanism and connector shorting
mechanism.
DOUBLE LOCK MECHANISMThe double lock mechanism comprises a mechanism for
locking the connector of the SRS diagnosis unit and the
connector of the harness, and a mechanism for locking the
locked connectors by the lock secondary lever mounted to the
SRS diagnosis unit side connector.
The secondary lock lever locking is done as the lock spring fits
in the notch of the connector.
The operating principle is described below.
When Connectors Are To Be Fitted
(I) The SRS diagnosis unit and harness side connectors are
fitted. (Primary lock)
(2) The secondary lock lever mounted to the SRS diagnosis
unit side connector is pressed down by finger until a click is
heard indicating that the connectors have been locked.
(Secondary lock)
If the harness and SRS diagnosis unit connectors do not
properly fit, the secondary lock lever side projection and the
harness side connector projection interfere with each other,
making it impossible to lock the connectors.
When Connectors Are Unlocked
(1) Press the lock spring on the lock lever side in with a flat tip
(--) screwdriver to unlock the secondary lock lever (secon-
dary lock).
Caution
Forced removal of the connector without releasing the
secondary lock lever will result in a damaged lock lever.(2) Press the primary lock of each of the harness side
connectors and remove the harness side connector.

SRS diagnosis unit have been fitted. The operating principle is
:described below.

(1) Securely connect the SRS diagnosis un.it and harness side
connectors and press the secondary lock lever down to lock
the connectors.

plate
IShort terminal
I13R06911(2) At the time, the short bar provided on the rear of the
secondary lock lever shorts the associated two pole
terminals of the SRS diagnosis unit. The SRS diagnosis unit
supplies monitoring current to the circuit to electrically
verify that the connectors have been locked.
CONNECTOR SHORTING MECHANISMThe mechanism is designed for prevention of accidental
explosion of the inflator when the clock spring connector (for
the squib circuit) is removed from the SRS diagnosis unit. The
operating principle is described below.
When Connectors Are Fitted
When the SRS diagnosis unit and clock spring connectors are
coupled, the circuit between the short terminals and clock
spring connector terminals are kept in the OFF state by the
partition plate provided in the connector of the SRS diagnosis
unit.
When Connectors &e DisconnectedWhen the clock spring connectors are disconnected from the
SRS diagnosis unit, the partition plate between the short
terminals and clock spring connector terminals is removed. As
a result, a short circuit is formed between the two poles of the
clock spring connector terminals to prevent generation of a
potential difference (current) between the squib terminals.
