(g) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Check that no one is inside the vehicle or within a
10 m (33 ft) radius of the vehicle.
(2) Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.
CAUTION:
When deploying the airbag, make sure that no one is
near the vehicle.
The curtain shield airbag assembly becomes ex-
tremely hot when the airbag is deployed, so do not
touch it for at least 30 minutes after deployment.
Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a cur-
tain shield airbag assembly with a deployed airbag.
Do not apply water, etc. to a curtain shield airbag as-
sembly with a deployed airbag.
Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
HINT:
The airbag deploys as the LED of the SST activation switch
comes on.
2. DEPLOYMENT WHEN DISPOSING OF CURTAIN
SHIELD AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
NOTICE:
When disposing of the curtain shield airbag assem-
bly, never use the customer's vehicle to deploy the
airbag.
Be sure to follow the procedure given below when de-
ploying the airbag.
HINT:
Prepare a battery as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a) Check the function of the SST (see step 1±(a) on page
RS±23).
(b) Remove the curtain shield airbag assembly (see page
RS±97).
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 airbag deployment side facing upward.

(e) Install the SST.
After connecting the SST below to each other, connect
them to the curtain shield airbag assembly.
SST 09082±00802 (09082±10801, 09082±20801)
(f) Place tires.
(1) Place at least 2 tires under the tire which the curtain
shield airbag assembly is tied to.
(2) Place at least 2 tires over the tire which the curtain
shield airbag assembly is tied to. The top tire should
have the disc wheel installed.
NOTICE:
Do not place the SST connector under the tire because it
could be damaged.
(3) Tie the tires together with 2 wire harness.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the wire harness is tight. Looseness in the
wire harness results in the tires coming free due to the
shock when the airbag is deployed.
(g) Install the SST.
Connect the SST 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, se-
cure some slack for the SST wire harness inside the tire.
(h) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Connect the red clip of the SST to the battery posi-
tive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST to the
battery negative (±) terminal.
(2) Check that no one is within a 10 m (33 ft) radius of
the tire which the shield airbag assembly is tied to.

INSTALLATION
HINT:
Use the same procedures for the RH side and LH side.
The procedures listed below are for the LH side.
1. INSTALL CURTAIN SHIELD AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
(a) Install the curtain shield airbag assembly with the 13
bolts.
Torque: 9.8 N´m (100 kgf´cm, 7 ft´lbf)
CAUTION:
Pay attention not to twist the deployment section of the cur-
tain shield airbag assembly.
NOTICE:
If the curtain shield airbag assembly has been
dropped, or there are cracks, dents or other defects
in the case or connector, replace the curtain shield
airbag assembly with a new one.
When installing the curtain shield airbag assembly,
take care it is not pinched between other parts.
Never use airbag parts from another vehicle. When
replacing parts, replace them with new ones.
(b) Connect the connector of the curtain shield airbag as-
sembly.
2. INSTALL ROOF HEADLINING (SEE PAGE BO±108)
3. CONNECT CABLE TO NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMI-
NAL
4. PERFORM INITIALIZATION (SEE PAGE BE±77)
Some system need initialization when disconnecting the cable
from the negative battery terminal.
5. INSPECT SRS WARNING LIGHT (SEE PAGE DI±1137)

REMOVAL
NOTICE:
If the wiring connector of the SRS is disconnected
with the ignition switch in the ON position, DTCs will
be recorded.
Never use airbag parts from another vehicle. When
replacing parts, replace them with new ones.
1. PRECAUTION (SEE PAGE RS±1 and RS±3)
2. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY
TERMINAL
Wait for 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable to prevent the
airbag working.
Never reuse an airbag sensor assembly if the airbag
has previously deployed in a collision.
3. REMOVE SHIFTING HOLE COVER (SEE PAGE
