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.

“Service and Owner
Publications” in the Index.
NOTICE:
If
you damage the covering for the driver’s or the
right front passenger’s air bag, the bag may not
work properly. You may have to replace the air
bag module in the steering wheel or both the air
bag module and the instrument panel for the
right front passenger’s air bag.
Do
not open or
break the air bag coverings.
For up to
15
seconds after the ignition key
is
turned off and the battery is disconnected, an
air
bag can still inflate during improper service. You
can be injured if 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.
