(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.

(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 front passenger airbag assembly.
CAUTION:
The front passenger airbag assembly is very hot
when the airbag is deployed, so leave it alone for at
least 30 minutes after deployment.
Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front
passenger airbag assembly with a deployed airbag.
Do not apply water, etc. to a front passenger airbag
assembly with a deployed airbag.
Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
When scrapping a vehicle, deploy the airbag and scrap
the vehicle with the front passenger airbag assembly still
installed.
2. DEPLOYMENT WHEN DISPOSING OF FRONT PAS-
SENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY ONLY
NOTICE:
When disposing of the front passenger airbag assembly
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 front passenger airbag assembly.
CAUTION:
When storing the steering wheel pad, keep the deployment
direction facing up.
(b) Fix the front passenger airbag assembly.
(1) Using a service-purpose wire harness for the ve-
hicle, tie down the front passenger airbag assembly
to the tire.
