General Information & Specifications: Precaution/Warning: Caution: Airbag
To prevent bodily injury from unexpected deployment of airbags and unnecessary maintenance, follow the instructions in this information when performing maintenance on the airbag components and nearby, around front of the vehicle (radiator panel, front wheel apron, front side frame, front bumper, front hood panel, front fender panel), around side of the vehicle (front door panel, rear door panel, center pillar, rear fender panel, side sill, rear wheel apron), around rear of the vehicle (the rear seat cushion, rear floor pan, rear sub frame assembly) and the airbag wiring harnesses and nearby.
To prevent unexpected deployment, turn the ignition switch to OFF and disconnect the ground terminal of the battery sensor (except for hybrid model) or battery negative terminal (for hybrid model), then wait at least 60 seconds to discharge electricity before starting work. Removing or installing the components or the connectors with the ignition switch ON will electrically impair them.
