(b) Using a service-purpose wire harness, tie down the front
passenger airbag assembly to the tire.

2
or more (0.0019 in.2 or more)
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 which is at least 1.25 mm
2
(0.0019 in2.).
HINT:
To calculate the square of the stripped wire harness section:
Square = 3.14 X (Diameter)
2 divided by 4
(1) Pass the wire harness though the installation holes,
as shown in the illustration.
(2) 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 looseness in the wire harness results in the
front passenger airbag assembly coming free due to
the shock from the airbag deploying.
Always tie down the front passenger airbag assembly
with the airbag deployment side facing inside.
NOTICE:
The tire will be marked by the airbag deployment, so when
disposing of the airbag use a redundant tire.

(1) Install the 2 nuts to the side airbag assembly.
(2) Wind the wire harness around the stud bolts of the
side airbag assembly as shown in the illustration.
(3) Position the side airbag assembly inside the tire
with the airbag deployment direction 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 the wire harness is tight. It is very danger-
ous when a loose wire harness results in the side air-
bag assembly coming free due to the shock from the
airbag deploying.
Always tie down the side airbag assembly with the
airbag deployment side facing inside.
NOTICE:
The tire will be marked by the airbag deployment, so when
disposing of the airbag use a redundant tire.
(d) Check functioning of the SST (See step 1-(a) on page
RS-17).

(e) Install the SST.
CAUTION:
Place the disc wheel on the level ground.
(1) Connect the connector of the SST to the steering
wheel pad connector.
SST 09082-00700, 09082-00760
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock. Also, se-
cure some slack for the SST wire harness inside the disc
wheel.
(2) Move the SST to at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the
steering wheel pad tied down on the disc wheel.
(f) Cover the steering wheel pad with a cardboard box or
tires.
Covering method using a 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.)
Y = 650 mm (25.59 in.)
NOTICE:
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 should be the following size.
X = 460 mm (18.11 in.) + width of tire
If a cardboard box smaller than the specified size is
used, the cardboard box will be broken by the shock
from 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 (7.87 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
the redundant tires.
(g) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Connect the SST red clip to the battery positive (+)
terminal and the black clip to the battery negative
(-) terminal.
(2) Check that no one is within 10 m (33 ft) area around
the disc wheel which the steering wheel pad is tied
to.
(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.
(h) 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 the deployed airbag.
Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
Do not apply water, etc. to a steering wheel pad with
the deployed airbag.
(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 disposal.
