WARNING: A restraints control module (RCM) only requires

replacement if the system has incurred five separate deployments. At no time
change the RCM for less than five separate deployments.

WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag

supplemental restraint system (SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag
module. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.

WARNING: Carry a live air bag module with the air bag and trim cover

pointed away from your body. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of
an accidental deployment. Failure to follow this instruction may result in
personal injury.

WARNING: Do not set a live air bag module down with the trim cover

face down. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.

WARNING: After deployment, the air bag surface can contain deposits of

sodium hydroxide, a product of the gas generant combustion that is irritating to
the skin. Wash your hands with soap and water afterwards. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in personal injury.

WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so

may result in air bag deployment. Failure to follow this instruction may result in
personal injury.

WARNING: Vehicle sensor orientation is critical for correct system

operation. If a vehicle equipped with an air bag SRS is involved in a collision,
inspect the sensor mounting bracket and wiring pigtail for deformation. If
damaged, replace the sensor whether or not the air bag is deployed.

WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury,
