Servicing the Airbag-Equipped Vehicle

Your dealer and the service manual have information about servicing the vehicle and the airbag system.
To purchase a service manual, see Service Publications Ordering Information.
WARNING
For up to 10 seconds after the vehicle is turned off and the battery is

procedures, and make sure the person performing work for you is qualified to do
so.
