If no malfunction is detected on ªSELF-DIAG [CURRENT]º but mal-
function is indicated by the ªAIR BAGº warning lamp, go to DIAG-
NOSTIC PROCEDURE 4, page RS-56, to diagnose the following
situations:
+Self-diagnostic result ªSELF-DIAG [PAST]º (previously stored
in the memory) might not be erased after repair.
+The SRS system malfunctions intermittently.
8. Touch ªPRINTº.
