SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM {SRSI
The Integra SRS includes a driver's airbag. located in the steering wheel hub, In addition, all models except the
RS model for Canada have a front passenger's airbag located in the dashboard above the glove box. Information
necessarv to safely service the SRS is included in this Service Manual. ltems marked with an asterisk {') on the
contents page include, or are located near, SRS components. Servicing. disassembling or replacing these items
will require special precautions and tools, and should therefore be done by an authorized Acura dealer.
a To avoid rsndering ths SRS inoporative, which could load to po.sonal iniury 01 d€ath in th€ event ot a ssvare
lrontal collision, all SRS service work muat be performod by an authorizod Acura deal6t.
a lmploper service procodules. including incorloct romoval and installation of the SRS, could lead to personal iniu-
ry caused by unintontional activation ot the airbags.
a All SRS elsctdcal wiring harnesses ara covorod with ysllow insulation. Rolalod compon€nts 8re locatsd in tho
stse ng column, tront console, dashboard, and dashboard lower panel, and in the dashboard above the glove
box. Do not use oloctrical tost equipmoni on thosa cilcuits.
NOTE: The original radio has a coded thett protection circuit. Be sure to get the customer's code number before
- disconnecting the battery.- removing the No. 32 (7.5 A) tuse from the under-hood fuse/relay box.
- removing the radio.
Alter service, reconnect power to the radio and turn it on. When the word "CODE" is displayed' enter the cus-
tomer's 5-digit code to restore radio operation.
