Disconnection of the Negative Battery Cable
• Before beginning any work, turn the ignition switch
to LOCK, disconnect the negative battery cable
and then wait for more than 1 minute to allow the
backup power supply of the SAS unit to deplete its
stored power.

• While correcting a problem, also try to determine
its cause. Begin work only after first learning
which parts and subassemblies must be removed
and disassembled for replacement or repair. After
removing the part, plug all holes and ports to
prevent foreign material from entering.

Disassembly
• If the disassembly procedure is complex requiring
many parts to be disassembled, all parts should
be disassembled in a way that will not affect their
performance or external appearance and identified
so reassembly can be performed easily and
efficiently.
