reel clockwise until it stops. Then rotate it
counterclockwise about two and a half turns. The
arrow mark (B) on the cable reel label should point
straight up.
Position the two tabs (A) of the turn signal
canceling sleeve (B) as shown. Installthe steering
wheel onto the steering column shaft, making sure
the steerlng wheel hub (C) engages the pins (D) of
the cable reel and tabs of the canceling sleeve. Do
not tap on the steering wheel or steering column
shaft when installing the steering wheel.
