PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS FOR VEHICLE EQUIPPED
WITH A SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
(AIR BAG) SYSTEM
WARNING:
D The configuration of air bag system parts are as shown in
the figure. When it is necessary to service (remove, rein-
stall and inspect) these parts, be sure to follow proce-
dures described in SECTION 10B. Failure to follow proper
procedures could result in possible air bag system activa-
tion, personal injury, damage to parts or air bag system
being unable to activate when necessary.
D If the air bag system and another vehicle system both
need repair, SUZUKI recommends that the air bag system
be repaired first, to help avoid unintended air bag system
activation.
D Do not modify the steering wheel, dashboard, or any other
air bag system components. Modifications can adversely
affect air bag system performance and lead to injury.
D If the vehicle will be exposed to temperatures over 93°C
(200°F) (for example, during a paint baking process), re-
move the air bag system components beforehand to avoid
component damage or unintended air bag system activa-
tion.

DIAGNOSIS

D When troubleshooting air bag system, be sure to follow
DIAGNOSIS in SECTION 10B. Bypassing these procedures
may result in extended diagnostic time, incorrect diagnosis,
and incorrect parts replacement.
D Never use electrical test equipment other than that specified
in this manual.
WARNING:
Never attempt to measure the resistance of the air bag (in-
flator) modules (driver and passenger). It is very dangerous
as the electric current from the tester may deploy the air
bag.
