For temporary storage of the airbag assembly duringservice, please observe the following precautions:
. Store the removed airbag assembly with the pad sur-face up.
!@ It the airbag is impropsrty stored facsdown, accidental deployment could propel the unit withenough force to cause setious iniury
Store the removed airbag assembly on a secure flatsufface away from any high heat source (exceeding
212"Fl1OO'Cl and free of any oil. grease, detergent or
CAUTION: lmproper handling or storage can internallydamage the airbag assembly, making it inoperativ€.ll you suspect the airbag assembly has been damagod,install a new unit and rgler to the Deployment/DigposalProcedures lor disposing of the dsmaged airbag.
Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. lfit's not a Honda multimeter make sure its output is 10mA (0.01 A) or less when switched to the smallestvalue in the ohmmeter range. A tester with a higheroutput could damage the airbag circuit or cause accidental deployment and possible injury.
Do not install used SRS parts from another car. Whenmaking SRS repai.s, use only new pans.
Except when performing electrical inspections,always disconnect both the negative cable and posi-
tive cable at the battery before beginning work.
