Section 2 (Air Bag Restraint Systems): Adjustments: CLOCKSPRING

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Subaru Forester. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Position front wheels straight ahead. With air bag module and steering wheel removed, rotate clockspring pin clockwise until it stops. Then rotate clockspring pin counterclockwise about 2 1-2 turns until arrow marks align. Clockspring is now centered. Install steering wheel and air bag module. Rotate steering wheel fully in both directions to verify steering is normal.
