Supplemental Restraint System
System Service
Your supplemental restraint
system is virtually maintenance-
free. There are no parts you can
safely service.
You must have the system
serviced by an authorized Honda
dealer:
If your airbags ever inflate.
The
airbags and control unit must
be replaced. Do not try to
remove or discard the airbags
by yourself. This must be done
by a Honda dealer.
If the SRS indicator light alerts
you of a problem.
Have the
supplemental restraint system
checked as soon as possible.
Otherwise, your airbags might
not inflate when you need
them.
When the car is 10 years old.
Have the dealer inspect the
system. The production date is
on the driver's doorjamb for
your convenience.
System Service Precautions
Do not modify your steering
wheel or any other part of the
supplemental restraint system.
Modifications could make the
system ineffective.
Do not tamper with the system's
components or wiring. This could
cause the airbags to inflate
inadvertently, possibly injuring
someone very seriously.
Tell anyone who works on your
car that you have a supplemental
restraint system. Failure to follow
the procedures and precautions
in the official Honda service
manual could result in personal
injury or damage to the system.
Scrapping an entire car that has
uninflated airbags can be
dangerous. Get assistance from a
Honda dealer if your car must
be scrapped.
If you sell your car, please be sure
to tell the new owner that the car
has a supplemental restraint
system. Alert them to the
information and precautions in
this part of the Owner's Manual.
