Servicing Your
Air
Bag-Equipped Geo
Air bags affect how your Geo should be serviced. There
are parts
of
the air bag system in several places around
your vehicle. You don’t want the system to inflate while
someone is working on your vehicle. Your Geo dealer
and the Tracker Service Manual have information about
servicing your vehicle and the air bag system.
To
purchase a service manual, see “Service and Owner
Publications” in the Index.
For up to
10
seconds
after
the ignition
key
is
turned off and the battery is disconnected, an air
bag can still inflate during improper service.

can be injured

you are close to an air bag when
it inflates. Avoid wires wrapped with yellow tape
or yellow connectors. They are probably part
of
the air bag system. Be sure to follow proper
service procedures, and make sure the person
performing work for you is qualified to do
so.
The air bag system does not need regular maintenance.
