Steering Wheel: Service Precautions
WARNING: For vehicles equipped with Supplement Restraint (Air Bag) System:
^
Service on or around Air Bag System Components or Wiring must be performed only by an authorized Suzuki dealer. Please observe all
WARNINGS and SERVICE PRECAUTIONS before performing service on or around Air Bag System Components or Wiring. Failure
to follow WARNINGS could result in unintended air bag deployment or could render the air bag inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
^
Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) can maintain sufficient voltage to cause a deployment of air bags for up to 10 seconds after
ignition switch is turned to "LOCK" position, battery is disconnected or fuse powering SDM is removed. Work must be started after 10
seconds from the time.
CAUTION: When fasteners are removed, always reinstall them at the same location from which they were removed. If a fastener needs to be
replaced, use the correct part number fastener for that application. If the correct part number fastener is not available, a fastener of equal size and
strength (or stronger) may be used. Fasteners that are not reused, and those requiring thread-locking compound, will be called out. The correct torque
value must be used when installing fasteners that require it. If the above procedures are not followed parts or system damage could result.
