SRS harness and connectors
Always observe the following precautions with regards to SRS system electrical wiring:
l
Never attempt to modify, splice or repair SRS wiring.
l
Never install electrical equipment such as a mobile telephone, two-way radio or in-car entertainment system in
such a way that it could generate electrical interference in the airbag harness. Seek specialist advice when
installing such equipment.
WARNING: When handling any SRS component, hold by the gas generator housing, DO NOT hold by the
airbag. Do not wrap the thumb around the gas generator while holding. Do not drape airbag over shoulder or
around neck. For seat buckle type pre-tensioners, hold by the piston tube, with the open end of the piston tube
pointing towards the ground and the buckle facing away from your body. Do not cover the end of the piston
tube. DO NOT hold buckle type pre-tensioners by the bracket assembly or cable. Never point the piston tube
towards your body or other people.
WARNING: Airbag modules and seat belt pre-tensioners are classed as explosive devices. For overnight
and longer term storage, they must be stored in a secure steel cabinet which has been approved as suitable for
the purpose and has been registered with the local authority.
WARNING: Store airbag modules or seat belt pre-tensioners in a designated storage area. If there is no
designated storage area available, store in the locked luggage compartment of the vehicle and inform the
workshop supervisor.
CAUTION: Improper handling or storage can internally damage the airbag module making it inoperative.
If you suspect the airbag module has been damaged, install a new module and refer to the deployment/disposal
procedures for disposal of the damaged module.
