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.
(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) 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.
(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 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.

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 the
front passenger airbag assembly with the deployed
airbag.
Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
Do not apply water, etc. to the front passenger airbag
assembly with the deployed airbag.
When scrapping a vehicle, deploy the airbag and
scrap the vehicle with the front passenger airbag as-
sembly still installed.
When moving a vehicle for scrapping which has the
front passenger airbag assembly with the deployed
airbag, use gloves and safety glasses.
HINT:
The airbag deploys simultaneously as the LED of the SST ac-
tivation switch lights up.
2. DEPLOYMENT WHEN DISPOSING OF FRONT PAS-
SENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY ONLY
NOTICE:
When disposing of the front passenger airbag assem-
bly only, never use the customer's vehicle to deploy
the airbag.
Be sure to follow the procedure given below when de-
ploying the airbag.
HINT:
Have a battery ready as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a) Remove the front passenger airbag assembly (See page
RS±27).
CAUTION:
When removing the front passenger airbag assembly,
work must be started 90 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ºLOCKº position and the nega-
tive (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the bat-
tery.
When storing the front passenger airbag assembly,
keep the upper surface of the airbag deployment side
facing upward.

Be sure to follow the procedure given below when de-
ploying the airbag.
HINT:
Have a battery ready as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a) Remove the seatback assembly (See page RS±40).
(b) Disengage the hook of the seatback cover as shown in
the illustartion.
(c) Remove the 2 nuts and side airbag assembly from the
seatback assembly.
CAUTION:
When storing the side airbag assembly, keep the upper sur-
face of the airbag deployment side facing upward.
(d) Using a service±purpose wire harness, tie down the side
airbag assembly to the tire.

CAUTION:
If a wire harness which is too thin or some other thing is
used to tie down the side airbag assembly, 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

CAUTION:
Make sure that the wire harness are tight. It is very danger-
ous when loose wire harness results in the tires coming
free due to the shock from the airbag deploying.
