Activating System

Ensure ignition switch is in OFF or LOCK position. Connect negative battery cable. From a position clear of air bag(s), turn ignition switch to RUN or ON position. Observe SRS/AIR BAG warning light. Warning light should come on for 6-8 seconds and then go out, indicating system is functioning properly. If warning light fails to illuminate, or illuminates and stays on, a system malfunction exists. See SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK .
