WARNING

 Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting negative battery cable to disable supplemental restraint
system.
 When removing instrument panel assembly, all components related to airbag should be operated with

removed, there is enough power remaining in the airbag control module for activating airbag, and the
airbag can be accidentally activated, causing personal injury or vehicle damage.
 Never expose airbag components to hot air or open flame.
 Removed airbag should be well kept. If triggered accidentally, it may cause personal injury.
