CAUTION: This vehicle has a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). Refer to the SRS Component Location View in order to determine whether you are performing service on or near the SRS components or the SRS wiring. When you are performing service on or near the SRS components or the SRS wiring, refer to the SRS On-Vehicle Service information. Failure to follow the CAUTIONS could cause air bag deployment, personal injury, or unnecessary SRS repairs.

The supplemental restraint Diagnostic Energy Reserve Module (DERM) maintains a reserve energy. When the vehicle power is insufficient to cause deployment of the air bag, the reserve energy supply provides the deployment power. Deployment power is available for as much as two minutes after disconnecting the vehicle power by any of the following methods:

Performing the following procedures prevents deploying of the air bag from the reserve energy supply power. Disconnecting the DERM inflator module from the deployment loop allows you to begin service immediately without waiting for the two minute time period to expire. Refer to Disabling the SRS .
