Service Precaution
WARNING: THIS VEHICLE HAS A
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS).
REFER TO THE SRS COMPONENT AND WIRING
LOCATION VIEW IN ORDER TO DETERMINE
WHETHER YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON
OR NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING. WHEN YOU ARE PEREFORMING
SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS
OR THE SRS WIRING, REFER TO THE SRS
SERVICE INFORMATION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
WARNING COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE AI
R
BAG DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL INJURY, OR
OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM
REPAIRS. CAUTION : Always use the correct fastener in the
proper location. When you replace a fastener,
use ONLY the exact part number for that
application. ISUZU will call out those fasteners
that require a replacement after removal. ISUZU
will also call out the fasteners that require thread
lockers or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE
SPECIFIED, do not use supplemental coatings
(Paints, greases, or other corrosion inhibitors)
on threaded fasteners or fastener joint
interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely
affect the fastener torque and the joint clamping
force, and may damage the fastener. When you
install fasteners, use the correct tightening
sequence and specifications. Following these
instructions can help you avoid damage to parts
and systems.
