Removal
WARNING: Always carry or place a live Safety Canopy(R), or side air curtain module, with the module and tear seam pointed away from your
body. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury or death in the event of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Anytime the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain module has deployed, a new headliner and new A-, B- and C-pillar upper trim
panels and attaching hardware must be installed. Remove any other damaged components and hardware and install new components and
hardware as needed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain module deploying incorrectly
and increases the risk of serious personal injury or death in a crash.
WARNING: When installing a new headliner on a vehicle equipped with Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain modules, make sure the
headliner has the word AIRBAG on the headliner where it meets each B-pillar trim panel. Otherwise, you have the wrong headliner. Failure to
follow this instruction may result in the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain module not deploying or deploying incorrectly, increasing the risk
of personal injury or death in a crash.
WARNING: Do not obstruct or place objects in the deployment path of the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain module. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain module deploying incorrectly and increases the risk of serious personal
injury or death in a crash.
