1. AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WHEN SCRAPPING VE-
HICLE
HINT:
Have a battery ready as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a) Check functioning of the SST.
CAUTION:
When deploying the airbag, always use the specified SST:
SRS Airbag Deployment Tool.
SST 09082-00700
(1) Connect the SST to battery.
Connect the red clip of the SST to the battery posi-
tive (+) terminal and the black clip to the battery neg-
ative (-) terminal.
HINT:
Do not connect the yellow connector which connects with the
SRS.
(2) Check functioning of the SST.
Press the SST activation switch, and confirm the
LED of the SST activation switch lights up.
CAUTION:
If the LED lights up when the activation switch is not being
pressed, SST malfunction is probable, so definitely do not
use the SST.
(b) Disconnect the airbag connector.
(1) Remove the No.1 under cover.
(2) Disconnect the airbag connector of the spiral cable.

(c) Install the SST.
(1) Connect the SST connector to the airbag connec-
tor.
SST 09082-00700
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.
(2) Move the SST to at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the
front of the vehicle.
(3) Close all the doors and windows of the vehicle.
NOTICE:
Take care not to damage the SST wire harness.
(4) Connect the SST red clip to the battery positive (+)
terminal and the black clip to the negative (+) termi-
nal.
(d) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Confirm that no-one is inside the vehicle or within
10 m (33 ft) of the vehicle.
(2) Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.
HINT:
The airbag deploys simultaneously as the LED of the SST ac-
tivation switch lights up.
(e) Dispose of the steering wheel pad.
CAUTION:

The steering wheel pad is very hot when the airbag is
deployed, so leave it alone for at least 30 minutes af-
ter deployment.

Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a steer-
ing wheel pad with a deployed airbag.

Do not apply water, etc. to a steering wheel pad with
a deployed airbag.

Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
(f) When scrapping a vehicle, deploy the airbag and scrap
the vehicle with the steering wheel pad still installed.
2. DEPLOYMENT WHEN DISPOSING OF STEERING
WHEEL PAD ONLY
NOTICE:
When disposing of the steering wheel pad only, never use
the customers vehicle to deploy the airbag.
HINT:
Have a battery ready as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a) Remove the steering wheel pad.

CAUTION:
When storing the steering wheel pad, keep the deployment
direction facing up.
(b) Fix the steering wheel pad.
(1) Using a service-purpose wire harness for the ve-
hicle tie down the steering wheel pad to the disc
wheel
Wire harness: Stripped wire harness section
1.25 mm
2 or more (0.0019 in.2 or more).
CAUTION:
If a wire harness which is too thin or some other thing is
used to tie down the steering wheel pad, it may be snapped
by the shock when the airbag is deployed. This is highly
dangerous. Always use a wire harness for vehicle use
which is at least 1.25 mm
2 (0.0019 in.2).
HINT:
To calculate the square of the stripped wire harness section:
Square = 3.14 X (Diameter)
2 divided by 4
(2) Remove the connector on the steering wheel pad
rear surface from the inflater cover.
(3) Install the bolts and washers in the 3 bolt holes in
the steering wheel pad.
Bolt:
L: 35.0 mm (1.387 in.)
M: 6.0 mm (0.236 in.)
Pitch: 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
NOTICE:

Tighten the bolts by hand until the bolts become diffi-
cult to turn.

Do not tighten the bolts too much.

(4) Using 3 wire harness, wrap the wire harness at least
2 times each around the bolts installed on the left
and right sides of the steering wheel pad.
CAUTION:

Tightly wind the wire harness around the bolts so that
there is no slack.

If there is slackness in the wire harness, the steering
wheel pad may come loose due to the shock when the
airbag is deployed. This is highly dangerous.
(5) Face the upper surface of the steering wheel pad
upward. Separately tie the left and right sides of the
steering wheel pad to the disc wheel through the
hub nut holes.
(6) Position the steering wheel pad connector so that
it hangs downward through a hub hole in the disc
wheel.
CAUTION:

Make sure that the wire harness is tight. It is very dan-
gerous if looseness in the wire harness results in the
steering wheel pad coming free through the shock of
the airbag deploying.

Always tie down the steering wheel pad with the pad
side facing upward. It is very dangerous if the steer-
ing wheel pad is tied down with the metal surface fac-
ing to the airbag deploying direction and the steering
wheel pad will be thrown into the air.
HINT:
The disc wheel will be marked by airbag deployment, so when
disposing of the airbag use a redundant disc wheel.
(c) Check functioning of the SST.

(d) Install the SST.
CAUTION:
Place the disc wheel on level ground.
Connect the SST connector to the steering wheel pad
connector.
SST 09082-00700
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock. Also, pro-
vide some slack for the SST wire harness inside the disc
wheel.
(e) Cover the steering wheel pad with cardboard box or tires.

Covering method using cardboard box:
Cover the steering wheel pad with the cardboard
box and weight the cardboard box down in 4 places
with at least 190 N (20 kg, 44 lb).
Size of cardboard box:
Must exceed the following dimensions:
x= 460 mm (18.11 in.)
When dimension y of the cardboard box exceeds the
diameter of the disc wheel with tire to which the steer-
ing wheel pad is tied -
x= 460 mm (18.11 in.) + width of tire
y= 650 mm (25.59 in.)
NOTICE:
If a cardboard box smaller than the specified size is used,
the cardboard box will be broken by the shock of the airbag
deployment.

Covering method using tires:
Place at least 3 tires without disc wheel on top of the
disc wheel with tire to which the steering wheel pad
is tied.
Tire size: Must exceed the following dimensions-
Width: 185 mm (7.28 in.)
Inner diameter: 360 mm (14.17 in.)
CAUTION:
Do not use tires with disc wheels.

NOTICE:
The tires may be marked by the airbag deployment, so use
redundant tires.
(f) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Connect the SST red clip to the battery positive (+)
terminal and the black clip to the battery negative
(-) terminal.
(2) Confirm that no-one is within 10 m (33 ft) area
around the disc wheel to which the steering wheel
pad is tied.
(3) Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.
HINT:
The airbag deploys simultaneously as the LED of the SST ac-
tivation switch lights up.
(g) Dispose of the steering wheel pad (with airbag).
CAUTION:

The steering wheel pad is very hot when the airbag is
deployed, so leave it alone for at least 30 minutes af-
ter deployment.

Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a steer-
ing wheel pad with a deployed airbag.

Do not apply water, etc. to a steering wheel pad with
deployed airbag.

Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
(1) Remove the steering wheel pad from the disc
wheel.
(2) Place the steering wheel pad in a vinyl bag, tie the
end tightly and dispose of it in the same way as oth-
er general parts.
