Disposal ofAir Bag Module andSeat Belt
Pre-tensioner

• Before disposing ofair bag module andseat beltpre-tensioner, orvehicles equipped withsuch
systems, deploythesystems. Ifsuch systems havealready beendeployed duetoan accident, dis-
pose ofas indicated in"DISPOSING OFAIR BAG MODULE ANDSEAT BELTPRE-TENSIONER" (RS-

24).

• When deploying theairbag module, alwaysusetheSpecial Service Tool;Deployment tool
KV99106400.
• When deploying theairbag module andseat beltpre-tensioner, standatleast 5m (16 ft)away from
the deployment component.
• Due toheat, leave airbag module unattended formore than30minutes afterdeployment. Alsoleave
seat beltpre-tensioner unattendedformore than10minutes afterdeployment.
• Besure towear gloves whenhandling adeployed airbag module andseat beltpre-tensioner.
• Never applywater toadeployed airbag module.
• Wash yourhands cleanafterfinishing- work.
• Donot dispose ofthe airbag module andseat beltpre-tensioner un-deployed.

Bleeding Hydraulic System

1. Raise frontendofvehicle untilwheels areclear ofthe
ground.
2. Add fluid intooiltank tospecified level.Thenquickly turn
steering wheelfullytoright andleftand lightly touchsteer-
ing stoppers.
Repeat steering wheeloperation untilfluid level nolonger
decreases.
3. Start engine.
Repeat step2.above.
• Incomplete airbleeding willcause thefollowing tooccur.
When thishappens, bleedairagain.
a. Air bubbles inreservoir tank
b. Clicking noiseinoil pump
c. Excessive buzzinginoil pump
Fluid noise mayoccur inthe valve oroil pump. Thisiscommon
when thevehicle isstationary orwhile turning thesteering
wheel slowly. Thisdoes notaffect theperformance ordurabil-
ity ofthe system.

Checking SteeringWheelTurning Force(For
power steering)

1. Park vehicle onalevel, drysurface andsetparking brake.
2. Start engine.
3. Bring power steering fluiduptoadequate operating temper-
ature. [Make suretemperature offluid isapproximately 60
to 80°C (140to176°F).]

Tires needtobe inflated tonormal pressure.

4. Check steering wheelturning forcewhen steering wheel
has been turned 360°from theneutral position.

Steering wheelturning force: •
39 N(4 kg, 9Ib) orless

5.
If
steering wheelturning forceisout ofspecification, check
rack sliding force.
a. Disconnect steeringcolumnlowerjointandknuckle arms
from thegear.
b. Start andrunengine atidle tomake suresteering fluidhas
reached normaloperating temperature.
c. Pull tie-rod slowlytomove itfrom neutral position to
::l::
11.5
mm
(::l::
0.453 in)atspeed of3.5 mm (0.138 in)/s.Check that
rack sliding forceiswithin specification.

Average racksliding force:
152.0 -240.3 N(15.5 -24.5 kg,34.2 -54.0 Ib)
Maximum forcedeviation:
98 N(10 kg, 22Ib)

6.
If
rack sliding forceisnot within specification, overhaul
steering gearassembly.
7. Ifrack sliding forceisOK, inspect steering column.Referto
ST-13.
