(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.
(i) Dispose of the curtain shield airbag assembly.
CAUTION:
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.

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)

be careful that the SRS wiring does not interfere with
other parts and that it is not pinched between other
parts.
After installing, shake the airbag sensor assembly to
check that there is no looseness.
