(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 that the wire harness is tight. If there is
slack in wire harness, the side airbag assembly may
become loose due to the shock when the airbag is
deployed.
Always tie down the side airbag assembly with the
airbag deployment side facing inside the tire.
NOTICE:
The tire will be marked by the airbag deployment, so use an
extra tire.
(f) Install the SST.
(1) Connect the SST connector to the side airbag as-
sembly connector.
SST 09082±00750
(g) Place the tires.
(1) Place at least 2 tires under the tire which the front
seat airbag assembly is tied to.
(2) Place at least 2 tires over the tire which the front
seat airbag assembly is tied to. The top tire should
have the disc wheel installed.
NOTICE:

(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.
(h) Install the SST.
Connect the connectors of the 2 SST to the side airbag
assembly 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.
(i) 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 seat airbag assembly LH 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.
