5-1 BODY AND EXTERIOR SUBARU SVX 1992 Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System "Airbag" The Supplemental Restraint System "Airbag" helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver in a frontal collision The Supplemental Restraint System consists of an airbag module (located in the center of the steering wheel), sensors, a control unit, warning light, wiring harness and spiral cable Information necessary to service the safety is included in the "5-5 SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM" of this Service Manual WARNING : To avoid rendering the Airbag system inoperative, which could lead to personal injury or death in the event of a severe frontal collision, all maintenance must be performed by an authorized SUBARU dealer Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the Airbag system, can lead to personal injury caused by unintentional activation of the Airbag system " All Airbag system electrical wiring harnesses and connectors are covered with yellow outer insulation Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the Supplemental Restraint System "Airbag" M MECHANISM AND FUNCTION Body Construction Cross-sectional Structure

All PP bumpers are provided with a grained surface, and if the surface is damaged, it cannot normally be restored to its former condition Damage limited to shallow scratches that cause only a change in the lustre of the base material or coating, can be almost fully restored Before repairing a damaged area, explain this point to the customer and get an understanding about the matter Repair methods are outlined below, based on a classification of the extent of damage MINOR DAMAGE CAUSING ONLY A CHANGE IN THE LUSTRE OF THE BUMPER DUE TO A LIGHT TOUCH Almost restorable Process No Cleaning Clean
