WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before
attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, Occupant Classification System (OCS), seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or
instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the
system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the
proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury when removing a deployed airbag, rubber gloves, eye protection, and a long-sleeved shirt should
be worn. There may be deposits on the airbag unit and other interior surfaces. In large doses, these deposits may cause irritation to the skin and
eyes.
NOTE: The following procedure is for replacement of an ineffective or damaged passenger airbag. If the airbag is ineffective or damaged, but
not deployed, review the recommended procedures for handling non-deployed supplemental restraints. See: Service and Repair. If the
passenger airbag has been deployed, review the recommended procedures for service after a supplemental restraint deployment before
removing the airbag from the vehicle. See: Repairs and Inspections Required After a Collision/Service and Repair.
