WARNING: Never put any type of fastener or tie strap around any part of a Safety Canopy(R) module, side air curtain module or interior trim
panel. This will prevent the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain module from deploying correctly. Failure to follow this instruction may
increase 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: Before installing a Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain module, inspect the roofline for any damage. If necessary, the sheet metal
must be reworked to its original condition and structural integrity. Install new fasteners if damaged and remove foreign material. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain deploying incorrectly, which increases the risk of serious
personal injury or death in a crash.
WARNING: Inspect a Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain module before installation. If the module is damaged, the cover has separated or
the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain material has been exposed, install a new module. Do not attempt to repair the module. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in the Safety Canopy(R) or side air curtain deploying incorrectly, which increases the risk of serious
personal injury or death in a crash.
1. Position the safety canopy module by moving it rearward, installing the rear bracket hook in the sheet metal.
