Disassembly

Steering Wheel:

WARNING! Store a removed driver's airbag assembly with the pad surface up. If the airbag is improperly stored face down, accidental deployment could propel the unit with enough force to cause serious injury.

NOTE: If an intact driver's airbag assembly has been removed from a scrapped car or has been found defective or damaged during transit, storage or service, it should be deployed.

CAUTION:

^ Carefully inspect the driver's airbag assembly before installing. Do not install an driver's airbag assembly that shows signs of being dropped or improperly handled, such as dents, cracks or deformation.
^ Always keep the short connector on the airbag connector when the harness is disconnected.
^ Do not disassemble or tamper with the driver's airbag assembly.
