TIRE AND WHEEL
INSPECTION
1. INSPECT TIRE
(a) Check the tires for wear and for the proper inflation pres-
sure.

(b) Check the tire runout.
Tire runout: 1.4 mm (0.055 in.) or less
2. ROTATING TIRES
HINT:
See the illustration for where to rotate each tire.
3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE
(a) Check and adjust the Off-the-car balance.
(b) If necessary, check and adjust the On-the-car balance.
Unbalance after adjustment: 8.0 g (0.018 lb) or less

FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
INSPECTION
1. MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT
Tire sizeFrontRear
155SR13187.9 mm (7.40 in.)253.2 mm (9.97 in.)
Front measuring point:
Measure from the ground to the center of the lower suspension
arm front mounting bolt.
Rear measuring point:
Measure from the ground to the center of the axle beam mount-
ing bolt.
NOTICE:
Before inspecting the wheel alignment, adjust the vehicle
height to the specification.
If the vehicle height is not the specification, try to adjust it by
pushing down on or lifting the body.
2. INSTALL CAMBER-CASTER-KINGPIN GAUGE OR
ONTO WHEEL ALIGNMENT TESTER
Follow the specific instruction of the equipment manufacturer.
3. INSPECT CAMBER, CASTER AND STEERING AXIS
INCLINATION
Camber
Left-right error-0°20' ± 45'

Steering axis inclination
Left-right error12°10' ± 45'
45' (0.75°) or less
HINT:
If the caster and steering axis inclination are not within the spec-
ification, after the camber has been correctly adjusted, recheck
the suspension parts for damaged and/or worn out parts.
4. INSPECT TOE-IN
Toe-in
(total)A + B: 0.1° ± 0.2°
C - D: 1 ± 2 mm (0.04 ± 0.08 in.)
If the toe-in is not within the specification, adjust by the tie rod
end.

(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.

- SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMFRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
RS-27
1996 TERCEL (RM440U)
CAUTION:
If the front passenger airbag assembly is tied down with
too thin wire harness, it may snap. This is highly danger-
ous. 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) Wrap the wire harness around the tire, passing the
wire harness through the installation holes indi-
cated by arrows in the installation.
(3) Position the front passenger airbag assembly in-
side the tire with the airbag deployment side facing
inside.
Tire size: Must exceed the following dimensions-
Width: 185 mm (7.28 in.)
Inner diameter: 360 mm (14.17 in.)
CAUTION:

Make sure that the wire harness is tight. It is very dan-
gerous if a loose wire harness results in the front pas-
senger airbag assembly coming free due to the shock
of the airbag deploying.

Always tie down the front passenger airbag assembly
with the airbag door facing inside.
NOTICE:
The tire will be marked by the airbag deployment, so when
disposing of the airbag use a redundant tire.
(c) Check functioning of the SST (See page RS-1 1).
