devices such as the airbag.
Distraction warning

BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
Before starting any installation work , you must wait 90 seconds after turning the ignition switch to the LOCK position and disconnecting the negative (-) terminal
from the battery. The supplemental restraint system (airbag) is equipped with a backup power source. If installation work is started less 90 seconds after
disconnection of the negative (-)battery terminal, the SRS may deploy. When the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery the clock and audio
systems memory will be erased. Before starting installation work make a record of the clock and audio systems memory settings. When installation is complete,
reset the clock and audio systems to their previous settings. Check power tilt, power telescopic steering column, front power seats, power mirrors, and power
shoulder belt anchorage are equipped with a memory function. When installation is complete, it is necessary to readjust the features to their previous settings
Never use a backup power supply (such as another battery) during installation work to avoid losing these memory settings.
DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES
Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of
the wire and result in fire or electric shock .
DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS
Cables or wiring that obstruct or get caught on places such as the steering wheel, shift lever, brake pedals, etc. can be
extremely hazardous.
