GENERAL INFORMATION

03-24

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.

SRS harness and connectors

Always observe the following precautions with 
regards to SRS system electrical wiring:

CAUTION: Observe the following precautions:

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.

NOTE: SRS wiring can be identified by a special 
yellow outer sleeve protecting the wires (black with 
yellow stripe protective coverings are sometimes 
used).

WARNING: Always ensure SRS wiring is routed 
correctly. Be careful to avoid trapping or 
pinching the SRS wiring. Do not leave the 
connectors hanging loose or allow SRS 
components to hang from their harnesses. Look 
for possible chafing points.

Side impact crash sensor inspection

After any degree of side body damage, inspect both 
side impact crash sensors. Replace a crash sensor if 
there is any sign of damage or deformation to the 
sensor fixings.
