Front Airbag Sensor
1.  Never reuse the front airbag sensors involved in a collision
that activated the supplemental restraint system. (Replace
both left and right airbag sensors.)
2.  Install the front airbag sensor with the arrow on the sensor
facing toward the front of the vehicle.
3.  The front airbag sensor set bolts have been anti±rust treated.
When the sensor is removed, always replace the set bolts
with new ones.
4. The front airbag sensor is equipped with an electrical
connection check mechanism. Be sure to lock this
mechanism securely when connecting the connector. If the
connector  is not securely locked, a malfunction code will be
detected by the diagnosis system (See page RS±7).
Spiral Cable (in Combination Switch)
The steering wheel must be fitted correctly to the steering col-
umn with the spiral cable at the neutral position, otherwise
cable disconnection and other troubles may result. Refer to
page SR±14 of this manual concerning correct steering
wheel installation.
Steering Wheel Pad (with Airbag)
1.  When removing the steering wheel pad or handling a new
steering wheel pad, it should be placed with the pad top
surface facing up.
In this case, the twin±lock type connector lock lever should
be in the locked state and care should be taken to place it so
the connector will not be damaged. In addition do not store
a steering wheel pad on top of another one. Storing the pad
with its metallic surface up may lead to a serious accident if
the airbag inflates for some reason.
2.  Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib. (This
may cause the  airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
3.  Grease should not be applied to the steering wheel pad and
the pad should not be cleaned with detergents of any kind.
4.  Store the steering wheel pad where the ambient temperature
remains below 93°C (200°F), without high humidity and
away from electrical noise. IN±12
