systems, such as the SRS and

anti-lock brake system.
However, if electronic accessories

are improperly installed, or

exceed your vehicle's electrical

system capacity, they can interfere

with the operation of your vehicle,

or even cause the airbags to

deploy.

Before installing any accessory:

Make sure the accessory does

not obscure any lights, or

interfere with proper vehicle

operation or performance.

Be sure electronic accessories

do not overload electrical

circuits (see page

240

).

Have the installer contact your

Honda dealer for assistance

before installing any electronic

accessory.

If possible, have your dealer

inspect the final installation.

Modifications

Do not remove any original

equipment or modify your vehicle

in any way that would alter its

design or operation. This could

make your vehicle unsafe and

illegal to drive.
For example, do not make any

modifications that would change

the ride height of your vehicle, or

install wheels and tires with a

different overall diameter.

Such modifications can adversely

affect handling, and interfere with

the operation of the vehicle'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 airbag covers. Any object

attached to, or placed on, the

covers marked "SRS," 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 vehicle and

hurt someone.
