Default Swapping Steering Wheels

Is there anything I should know before removing my stock steering wheel that has padddles and radio controls? I am replacing it with another stock steering wheel that has the paddles, radio controls and phone switches. But I'm wondering if there is any concern with the air bag? Thanks for the advice.

Disconnect battery, ground or hot lead. Wait 10 minutes or less, good to go.

I think I waited 5 minutes?
