Suzuki GA413, Service Manual

Page: 9 / 1246

WARNING:
SDM
During service procedures, be very careful when han-
dling a Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM). Never
strike or jar the SDM.
Never power up the air bag system when the SDM is not
rigidly attached to the vehicle. All SDM and mounting
bracket fasteners must be carefully torqued to ensure
proper operation of the air bag system.
The SDM could be activated when powered while not rig-
idly attached to the vehicle which could cause deploy-
ment and result in personal injury.
CAUTION:
Even when the accident was light enough not to cause
air bags to activate, be sure to inspect system parts
and other related parts according to instructions un-
der REPAIR AND INSPECTION REQUIRED AFTER AN
ACCIDENT in SECTION 10B.
When servicing parts other than air bag system, if
shocks may be applied to air bag system component
parts, remove those parts beforehand.
When handling the air bag (inflator) modules (driver
and passenger) or SDM, be careful not to drop it or ap-
ply an impact to it. If an excessive impact was applied
(e.g., dropped from a height of 90 cm (3 feet) or more),
never attempt disassembly or repair but replace it with
a new one.
When grease, cleaning agent, oil, water, etc. has got
onto air bag (inflator) modules (driver and passenger),
wipe off immediately with a dry cloth.
Air bag wire harness can be identified easily as it is
covered with a yellow protection tube. Be very careful
when handling it.
When an open in air bag wire harness, damaged wire
harness, connector or terminal is found, replace wire
harness, connectors and terminals as an assembly.
Do not apply power to the air bag system unless all
components are connected or a diagnostic flow table
requests it, as this will set a diagnostic trouble code.
Never use air bag system component parts from
another vehicle.
