Chevrolet Captiva Service & Repair Manual / Air Bags / Air Bag System Disarming & Arming

The air bag control module maintains a reserved energy supply. The reserved energy supply provides deployment power for air bags if air bag control module loses battery power during a collision. Deployment power is available for as much as 2 minute after disconnecting vehicle power. After disabling air bag system, wait for 2 minute before working on system, to prevent deployment of air bags from reserved energy supply. Servicing air bag system during this period may result in accidental deployment and personal injury.
