PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

1. Items to follow when servicing SRS

(1) Be sure to read GROUP 52B - Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).

For safe operations, please follow the directions and heed all warnings.

(2) Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the battery cable before doing any further work.

The SRS system is designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air bag even after the battery

has been disconnected. Serious injury may result from unintended air bag deployment if work

is done on the SRS system immediately after the battery cable is disconnected.

(3) Warning labels must be heeded when servicing or handling SRS components. Warning labels

are located in the following locations.
D

Sun visor

Glove box

SRS-ECU

Steering wheel

Steering Joint Cover

Air bag module (driver’s side and front passenger’s side)

Clock spring

Seat belt with pre-tensioner

(4) Always use the designated special tools and test equipment.

(5) Store components removed from the SRS in a clean and dry place.

The air bag module should be stored on a flat surface and placed so that the pad surface is

facing upward.

Do not place anything on top of it.

(6) Never attempt to disassemble or repair the SRS components (SRS-ECU, air bag module, clock

spring and seat belt with pre-tensioner).

(7) Whenever you finish servicing the SRS, check the SRS warning lamp operation to make sure

that the system functions properly.

(8) Be sure to deploy the air bag before disposing of the air bag module or disposing of a vehicle

equipped with an air bag. (Refer to GROUP 52B - Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.)

2. Observe the following when carrying out operations on places where SRS components are installed,

including operations not directly related to the SRS air bag.

(1) When removing or installing parts do not allow any impact or shock to the SRS components.

(2) SRS components should not be subjected to heat, so remove the SRS components before drying

or baking the vehicle after painting.
D

SRS-ECU, air bag module, clock spring: 93_C or more

Seat belt with pre-tensioner: 90_C or more

After re-installing them, check the SRS warning lamp operation to make sure that the system

functions properly.

SERVICING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Before replacing a component related to the electrical system

and before undertaking any repair procedures involving the

electrical system, be sure to first disconnect the negative

(-) cable from the battery in order to avoid damage caused

by short-circuiting.
Caution

Before connecting or disconnecting the negative (-) cable,

be sure to turn off the ignition switch and the lighting

switch.

(If this is not done, there is the possibility of

semiconductor parts being damaged.)

APPLICATION OF ANTI-CORROSION AGENTS

AND UNDERCOATS

If oil or grease gets onto the oxygen sensor, it will cause

a drop in the performance of the sensor.

Cover the oxygen sensor with a protective cover when applying

anti-corrosion agents and undercoats.

PRE-INSPECTION CONDITION

“Pre-inspection condition” refers to the condition that the

vehicle must be in before proper engine inspection can be

carried out. If you see the words “Set the vehicle to the

pre-inspection condition”. in this manual, it means to set the

vehicle to the following condition.

equipment is used to wash the vehicle, be sure to note the

following information in order to avoid damage to plastic

components, etc.
D

IN ORDER TO PREVENT VEHICLES FROM FIRE

“Improper installation of electrical or fuel related parts could cause a fire. In order to retain the high

quality and safety of the vehicle, it is important that any accessories that may be fitted or modifications/repairs

that may be carried out which involve the electrical or fuel systems, MUST be carried out in accordance

with MMC’s information/Instructions”.

ENGINE OILS
Health Warning

Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result in the removal of natural fats from the skin,

leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful

contaminants which may cause skin cancer. Adequate means of skin protection and washing facilities

must be provided.

Recommended Precautions

The most effective precaution is to adapt working practices which prevent, as far as practicable, the

risk of skin contact with mineral oils, for example by using enclosed systems for handling used engine

oil and by degreasing components, where practicable, before handling them.
Other precautions:
D

Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, particularly used engine oils.

Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where practicable.

Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underpants, with oil.

Do not put oily rags in pockets, the use of overalls without pockets will avoid this.

Do not wear heavily soiled clothing and oil-impregnated foot-wear. Overalls must be cleaned regularly

and kept separately from personal clothing.

Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should be worn, for example, chemical goggles

or face shields; in addition an eye wash facility should be provided.

Obtain First Aid treatment immediately for open cuts and wounds.

Wash regularly with soap and water to ensure all oil is removed, especially before meals (skin cleansers

and nail brushes will help). After cleaning, the application of preparations containing lanolin to replace

the natural skin oils is advised.

Do not use petrol, kerosine, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.

Use barrier creams, applying them before each work period, to help the removal of oil from the skin

after work.

If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without delay.
