WARNING:
-
After any crash, all of the following safety belt assemblies and attaching hardware must be inspected by an authorized dealer to verify
correct function:
-
Retractors
-
Buckles
-
Belt tension sensor (BTS) (if equipped)
-
Front safety belt buckle support assemblies (slide bar) (if equipped)
-
Safety belt shoulder belt height adjusters (if equipped)
-

-

-
If any safety belt assembly is damaged, does not operate correctly or does not pass all of the Functional Tests in the Diagnosis and Testing
portion of this section, a new safety belt assembly must be installed. If any safety belt assembly attaching areas are damaged or distorted,
the sheet metal must be restored to its original structural integrity and new safety belt assembly and attaching hardware must be
installed. Failure to install new safety belt assemblies and attaching hardware may increase the risk of serious personal injury or death in
a crash.
-
After any crash that results in deployment of the driver and/or front outboard passenger safety belt pretensioners, new driver and/or
front outboard passenger safety belt systems (including retractors, buckles and height adjusters) must be installed. Failure to install new
safety belt systems increases the risk of serious personal injury or death in a crash.
-
Never probe the electrical connectors on safety belt buckle/retractor pretensioners or adaptive load limiting retractors. Failure to follow
this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of the safety belt pretensioners or adaptive load limiting retractors, which
increases the risk of serious personal injury or death.
-
To reduce the risk of accidental deployment, do not use any memory saver devices. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
personal injury or death.
CAUTION: It is necessary to carry out the occupant classification sensor (OCS) system reset of the OCS system when a front passenger seat
cushion is disassembled, a new trim cover installed or an OCS system service kit is installed. A scan tool is used to trigger the command to carry
out the OCS system reset.
NOTE:
-
The air bag warning indicator illuminates when the restraints control module (RCM) fuse is removed and the ignition switch is ON. This is normal
