IN-6 INTRODUCTION HANDLING PRECAUTIONS ON RELATED COMPONENTS 1. SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) Locations of SRS Components SRS Warning Light Front Airbag Sensor RH Front Passenger Airbag Assembly Front Airbag Sensor LH Center Airbag Sensor Assembly Junction Block No. 1 Spiral Cable Steering Wheel Pad (with Airbag) Servicing vehicle with a Supplemental Restraint System (referrerd to as the SRS in the remainder of this manual) installed. When handling SRS components (removal, installation or inspection, etc.), always follow the directions given in the repair manual for the relevant model year to prevent the occurrence of accidents and airbag malfunction. Also take the following precautions when repairing the body: • Work must be started after 90 seconds or longer from the time the ignition switch is set to the LOCK position and the negative (–) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery. (The airbag system is equipped with a backup power source so that if work is started within 20 seconds of disconnecting the negative (–) terminal cable of the battery, the airbag may be deployed.) When the negative (–) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, memory of the clock and audio systems will be cancelled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memorized by each memory system. Then when work is finished, reset the clock and audio systems as before. When the vehicle has tilt and telescopic steering, power seat, outside rear view mirror and power shoulder belt anchorage, which are all equipped with memory function, it is not possible to make a record of the memory contents. So when the operation is finished, it will be necessary to explain this fact to the customer, and request the customer to adjust the features and reset the memory. • When using electric welding, first disconnect the SRS connector (yellow color and 2 pins) under the steering column near the combination switch connector on the glove compartment finish plate and lower the front scuff plate before starting work.
