(h) 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 front passenger 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 front
passenger airbag assembly with a deployed airbag.
Do not apply water, etc. to a front passenger airbag
assembly 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 FRONT PAS-
SENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY ONLY
NOTICE:
When disposing of the front passenger airbag assem-
bly, never use the customer's vehicle to deploy the
airbag.
Be sure to follow the procedure detailed below when
deploying 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)).
(b) Remove the front passenger airbag assembly (see page
RS±33).
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 airbag deployment side facing upward.

(c) Using a service±purpose wire harness for the vehicle, tie
down the front passenger airbag assembly to the tire.
Wire harness: Stripped wire harness section

2
or more (0.0019 in.2 or more)
CAUTION:
If the wire harness is too thin or an alternative object is
used to tie down the front passenger airbag assy, it may be
snapped by the shock when the airbag is deployed. Always
use a wire harness for vehicle use with an area of at least
1.25 mm
2
(0.0019 in.2).
HINT:
To calculate the area of the stripped wire harness section:
Area = 3.14 X (Diameter)
2 divided by 4
(1) 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. If there is
slack in wire harness, the front passenger airbag as-
sembly may become loose due to the shock when the
airbag is deployed.
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 use an
extra tire.

(d) Place the tires.
(1) Place at least 2 tires under the tire which the front
passenger airbag assembly is tied to.
(2) Place at least 2 tires over the tire which the front
passenger airbag assembly is tied to. The top tire
should have the disc wheel installed.
(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.
(e) Install the SST.
Connect the SST connector.
SST 09082±00700, 09082±00780
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.
(f) 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 front passenger airbag assembly
is tied to.
(3) Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.
CAUTION:
When deploying the airbag, make sure that no one is near
the tire.
HINT:
The airbag deploys as the LED of the SST activation switch
comes on.
