    Removing
    WARNING
    Observe safety precautions when working on the airbag
    Disconnect battery earth strap
    Release steering column adjustment.
    Turn steering wheel until steering wheel spokes are vertical. Pull out steering column completely and press down to lowest position.
    Secure steering column adjustment.
    Insert a screwdriver (approx. 70 mm long and with an 8mm wide blade) into the hole on the back of the steering wheel hub
    Twist screwdriver . This action presses the retainer clip downward thereby releasing the locking lug of the airbag unit.
    Turn steering wheel back 180° and release second locking hook on opposite side.
    Position steering wheel in central position (wheels straight ahead).
    WARNING
    Electrostatic discharges may result in unintentional triggering of airbag. Therefore, the mechanic must electrostatically discharge him/herself before disconnecting the igniter and earth wires. This can be done by briefly touching the body or striker plate of the door.
    Pull connector off airbag unit
