AIR BAG SYSTEM
Side Air Bag Sensor Handling
•Disconnecting the side air bag sensor connector or removing the side air bag sensor with the ignition
switch at ON position can cause the side air bag sensor to operate and the side air bag module to
deploy, which may seriously injure you. Before disconnecting the side air bag sensor connector or
removing the side air bag sensor, always turn the ignition switch to LOCK position, then disconnect the
negative battery cable and wait for more than 1 minute to allow the backup power supply of the SAS
control module to deplete its stored power.
•If the side air bag sensor is subjected to shock or the sensor is disassembled, the side air bag module
may operate (deploy) suddenly and cause injury, or it may fail to operate normally and cause a serious
accident. Do not subject the side air bag sensor to shock or disassemble the sensor.
•Because a sensor is built into the side air bag sensor, when the side air bag module operates (deploys),
there may be a problem, such as an internal malfunction, even if there is not any external damage or
deformation. If the side air bag sensor is reused, the side air bag module may fail to operate normally
and cause a serious injury. Always replace the side air bag sensor with a new part. The side air bag
sensor cannot be bench-checked or self-checked.
Pre-tensioner Seat Belt Inspection
•Inspecting a pre-tensioner seat belt using an
ohmmeter can deploy the pre-tensioner seat
belt, which can cause serious injury. Do not
use an ohmmeter to inspect the pre-tensioner
seat belt. Always use the on-board diagnostic
to diagnose the pre-tensioner seat belt for
malfunctions.
Component Handling
•Oil, grease, water, etc on components may cause the air bag modules and pre-tensioner seat belts to
fall to deploy in an accident, which may cause serious injury. Do not allow oil, grease, water, etc., on
components.
•Inserting a screwdriver, etc., into the
connector of an air bag module or a pre-
tensioner seat belt may damage the connector
and cause the air bag module or the pre-
tensioner seat belt to deploy improperly,
which may cause serious injury. Do not insert
any foreign objects into the connector.
Component Reuse
•Even if an air bag module or a pre-tensioner seat belt does not deploy in a collision and does not have
any external signs of damage, it may have been damaged internally, which may cause improper
operation. Improper operation may cause serious injury. Always self-check the undamaged air bag
module or pre-tensioner seat belt to determine whether it can be reused.
