When installing the steering column cover, be sure to
route each wire harness as illustrated so that the
harnesses do not catch on any moving parts.
6. Steering Wheel
Align the setting marks made when removing.
CAUTION:
Never apply force to the steering wheel in direction of the
shaft by using a hammer or other impact tools in an
attempt to remove the steering wheel. The steering shaft
if designed as an energy absorbing unit.
Tighten the steering wheel fixing nut to the specified
torque.

5. Inflator Module
1) Support the module and carefully connect the
module connector.
CAUTION:
·Never use the air bag assembly from another vehicle.
Use only the air bag assembly for "UBS".
·When replace the inflator module, use only same parts
number assembly. If different parts number assembly is
installed, the air bag system can not function correctly
because it has different characteristic.
NOTE:
Pass the lead wire through the tabs on the plastic
cover (wire protector) of inflator to prevent lead wire
from being pinched.
2) Secure the module with one bolt to relieve
weight on the connector wire.
3) Tighten bolts to specified sequence as figure.

2A – 76 SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM STEERING WHEEL & COLUMN
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The steering column has three important features in
addition to the steering function:
1. The column is energy absorbing, designed to
compress in a front-end collision to minimize
the possibility of injury to the driver of the
vehicle.
2. The ignition switch and lock are mounted
conveniently on the column.
3. With the column mounted lock, the ignition
and steering operation can be locked to
prevent theft of the vehicle.The column may be disassembled and
reassembled. To insure the energy absorbing
action, it is important that the specified screws,
bolts and nuts be used only as designated and that
they are tightened to the specified torque.
When the column is removed from the vehicle, a
sharp blow on the end of steering shaft leaning on
the column assembly, or dropping the assembly
could shear or loosen the fasteners that maintain
column rigidity.

REMOVAL
1. Wheel Lug Nut
Loosen wheel nut by approximately 180° (half a
rotation) and raise the vehicle. Then remove the nuts.
2. Wheel and Tire
NOTE:
Never use heat to loosen a tight wheel lug nut. The
application of heat to the hub can shorten the life of
the wheel and may cause damage to wheel bearings.
INSTALLATION
1. Wheel and Tire
2. Wheel Lug Nut
Tighten the wheel lug nuts to the specified torque in
numerical order.
Wheel Lug Nut Torque N·m (kg·m/lb·ft)
118 (12.0 / 87)
CAUTION:
Before installing wheels, remove any build-up of
corrosion on the wheel mounting surface and brake
disc mounting surface by scraping and wire brushing.
Installing wheels without good metal-to-metal
contact at mounting surfaces can cause wheel nuts to
loosen, which can later allow a wheel to come off
while the vehicle is moving.
NOTE:
Valve caps should be on the valve stems to keep dust
and water out.
