around your vehicle. Your dealer and the service manual
have information about servicing your vehicle and
the air bag systems. To purchase a service manual,
see ªService and Owner Publicationsº in the Index.

turned off and the battery is disconnected, an air
bag can still inflate during improper service. You
can be injured if you are close to an air bag when
it inflates. Avoid yellow connectors. They are
probably part of the air bag systems. Be sure to
follow proper service procedures, and make sure
the person performing work for you is qualified
to do so.
