The SRS indicator alerts
you to a potential problem

with your airbags or seat belt
tensioners (see page

).

If the indicator comes on at any
other time, or does not come on at all,
you should have the system checked
by your dealer. For example:

If the indicator stays on after the
engine starts.

When you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position, this indicator
comes on briefly then goes off. This
tells you the system is working
properly.

If the SRS indicator does not come
on after you turn the ignition
switch to the ON (II) position.

If the indicator comes on or
flashes on and off while you drive.

If you see any of these indications,
the airbags and seat belt tensioners
may not work properly when you
need them.

Your airbag system is virtually
maintenance-free, and there are no
parts you can safely service.
However, you must have your
vehicle serviced if:

Any airbag

that has deployed must be
replaced, along with the control
unit and seat belt tensioner. Do
not try to remove or replace any
airbag by yourself.
This must be done by your dealer
or a knowledgeable body shop.

Take your vehicle to an

authorized dealer as soon as
possible. If you ignore this
indication, your airbags may not
operate properly.
