Work on cars equipped with an airbag

All Saab 900 models are equipped with a supplementary restraint (airbag) system. Note the following when carrying out bodywork repairs:


Read through the "Safety and handling instructions" section of Service Manual 8:6 "Airbag" before starting any work.

When carrying out any work in which the body is subjected to jolts and impacts, unplug the connector from the airbag system control module.

When welding, remove and cover the battery minus cable.

When stove enamelling, cover the bolt holes in the control module mounting bracket with masking tape to safeguard the control module's ground connection.

For more detailed information on the airbag system, refer to Service Manual 8:6 "Airbag".
