Safety measures

Improper maintenance of passive safety systems can lead to undesired triggering of the airbag, which, in turn, lead to injury to varying degrees of severity.

Errors in unskilled service, can lead to failure of the system at the right time, with unpredictable consequences.

Security measures at carrying out maintenance and repair SRS

1. After the transfer of the ignition key to the LOCK position and disconnecting the negative cable from the battery, wait at least 30 seconds before proceeding with further work.

The SRS is designed so that after the battery is disconnected for a short time retain enough voltage to trigger airbags.

2. After disconnecting the battery, the memory of some electronic devices (watches, radios, etc.) will be erased. Before starting work, make a note of the basic settings of these devices and restore them after completing the repair.

3. Faults restraint system itself practically does not show, so the main form of system diagnostics is to test the existence of fault codes.

4. Always before disconnecting the battery Rip DTCs.

5. Never install a system in the car parts from another vehicle. Only install new parts.

6. Do not dismantle the airbag and the clock spring. When wiring fault system replaces the entire harness.

7. If you accidentally fell from a component of a more or less decent height or imyutsya cracks or deformation, replace the component.

8. After the service perform a system check. SRS warning lamp in some cases may be a problem in other circuits vehicle systems. If the warning light lit, remove the DTCs with a tester HI-SCAN (Pro) immediately after the repair or replacement of defective parts, including fuse.

9. When carrying out welding work on the vehicle, do not disconnect the cable negative terminals of the battery.
