 | All considered models are equipped with an airbag. Cushion resides in the "heads-up" state and may operate (inflate) at any time at the connected battery. To avoid inadvertent deployment of the air (and result in the injury) each time when carrying out any work on the components of the security system disconnect the negative wire from the battery. After disconnecting the cables from the battery before starting work Wait for at least two minutes (the system is equipped with a condenser, which takes time to discharge). Read more about system security, see. Head System of an onboard electric equipment. |
| - Install the steering wheels of the car in a straight line. Disconnect the negative wire from the battery.
| If your car audio system is equipped with a security code before to disconnect the negative cable from the battery, make sure you dispose of the system to enter into force after completion of the work. |

|
- Give a nut of fastening of a steering wheel, and then mark the position of the steering shaft against the hub (if the label is not applied, or if they are not aligned) in order to simplify assembly.
| Avoid turning the steering shaft after removal of the steering wheel. |
 | - Before removing the steering wheel to make sure the combination of adjusting labels on its hub and shaft journal columns (if any); If the labels are not available, apply them yourself using a scribe or white paint.
|

If the wheels are turning, you must make an alignment coil spring airbags. To do this, the front wheels are strictly rectilinear and rotate the rotor of the clock spring clockwise until it stops (do not apply too much force). Now turn the rotor on two and a half turn counterclockwise. In this position, the wire should be at the top of the horn and airbag module wires - at the bottom.
