Important Preliminary Precautions

Caution: Be careful when you handle an inflatable restraint side impact sensor (SIS) or inflatable restraint side impact sensing module (SISM). Do not strike or jolt the SIS or SISM. Before applying power to the SIS or SISM:
^ Remove any dirt, grease, etc. from the mounting surface
^ Position the SIS or SISM on the mounting surface
^ Tighten all of the SIS or SISM fasteners to the specified torque value

Failure to follow the correct procedure could cause air bag deployment, personal injury, or unnecessary air bag system repairs.
