General Service Instructions
Caution: When performing service on or near the SIR components or the SIR wiring, the SIR system must be disabled. Refer to SIR Disabling and Enabling . Failure to observe the correct procedure could cause deployment of the SIR components, personal injury, or unnecessary SIR system repairs.
Important: The sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) maintains a reserved energy supply. The reserved energy supply provides deployment power for the SIR modules. Deployment power may be available for up to 2 minutes after disconnecting the vehicle power. Disabling the SIR system prevents deployment of the SIR modules from the reserved energy supply.
Important: The following are general service instructions which must be followed in order to correctly repair the vehicle and return it to its original integrity:
| • | Do not expose inflator modules to temperatures above 65 °C (147 °F). |
| • | Verify the correct replacement part number. Do not substitute a component from a different vehicle. |
| • | Use only original Holden replacement parts available from your authorized Holden dealer. Do not use salvaged parts for repairs to the SIR system. |

| • | Inflatable restraint SDM. |
| • | Inflatable restraint instrument panel (I/P) module. |
