WARNING:
To reduce the risk of accidental deployment, do not use any memory saver devices when depowering the fire suppression system. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
If the vehicle is equipped with a fire suppression system, disconnect the battery before anyone gets under the vehicle or near the rear axle area. You could unintentionally deploy the fire suppression system. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
The tightening torque of the fire suppression system module (FSSM) bolts and the FSSM orientation on the body of the vehicle is critical for correct system operation. Always tighten and orient the FSSM per specifications. Failure to do so may result in incorrect fire suppression system operation, which increases the risk that it will not protect vehicle occupant(s).
