Accessories and Modifications

Modifications
Do not remove any original

equipment or modify your car in any

way that would alter its design or

operation. This could make your car

unsafe and illegal to drive.

For example, do not make any

modifications that would change the

ride height of your car, or install

wheels and tires with a different

overall diameter.

Such modifications can adversely
affect handling, and interfere with

the operation of the car's anti-lock

brakes and other systems.

In addition, any modifications that

decrease ground clearance increase

the chance of undercarriage parts

striking a curb, speed bump, or other

raised object, which could cause

your airbags to deploy.

Do not modify your steering wheel

or any other part of your

Supplemental Restraint System.

Modifications could make the
system ineffective.

Additional Safety Precaution

Do not attach or place objects on

the front airbag covers. Any object

attached to or placed on the covers

marked "SRS AIRBAG," in the
center of the steering wheel and

on top of the dashboard, could

interfere with the proper operation

of the airbags. Or, if the airbags
inflate, the objects could be

propelled inside the car and hurt

someone.

On models equipped with side airbags

Do not attach hard objects on or

near a front door. If a side airbag

inflates, a cup holder or other hard
object attached on or near the

door could be propelled inside the

car and hurt someone.

Do not place any objects over the

outside edge of a front seat-back.

Covering the outside edge of a

front seat-back, with a non-Honda

seat cover for example, could

prevent the airbag from inflating
properly.
