WARNING!
SDM
• For handling and storage of a SDM, select
a place where the ambient temperature
below 65 °C (150 °F), without high humidity
and away from electric noise.
• During service procedures, be very careful
when handling a Sensing and Diagnostic
Module (SDM). Never strike or jar the SDM.
• Never power up the air bag system when
the SDM is not rigidly attached to the
vehicle. All SDM and mounting bracket
fasteners must be carefully torqued and
the arrow must be pointing toward the
front of the vehicle to ensure proper
operation of the air bag system.
The SDM could be activated when powered
while not rigidly attached to the vehicle
which could cause deployment and result
in personal injury.
WARNING!
Driver and Passenger Seat Belt
Pretensioners
• For handling and storage of a live seat belt
pretensioner, select a place where the
ambient temperature below 65 °C (150 °F),
without high humidity and away from
electric noise.
• Never carry seat belt pretensioner by wire
or connector of pretensioner. When
placing a live seat belt pretensioner on the
workbench or some place like that, never
put something on seat belt pretensioner.
Otherwise, personal injury may result.
• Never dispose of live (inactivated) seat belt
pretensioners (drive and passenger). If
disposal is necessary, be sure to activate
them according to activation procedures
described in “Air Bag (Inflator) Module and
Seat Belt Pretensioner Disposal in Section
8B” before disposal.
• The seat belt pretensioner immediately
after activation is very hot. Wait for at least
half an hour to cool it off before
proceeding the work.
• With many service procedures, gloves and
safety glasses should be worn to prevent
any possible irritation of the skin or eyes.
• Even when the accident was light enough not to
cause air bags to activate, be sure to inspect system
parts and other related parts according to instructions
under “Repair and Inspection Required after Accident
in Section 8B”.
• When servicing parts other than air bag system, if
shocks may be applied to air bag system component
parts, remove those parts beforehand.
• When handling the air bag (inflator) modules (driver,
passenger, side and curtain), seat belt pretensioners
(driver and passenger), forward sensor, side sensors
or SDM, be careful not to drop it or apply an impact to
it. If an excessive impact was applied, never attempt
disassembly or repair but replace it with a new one.
• When grease, cleaning agent, oil, water, etc. has got
onto air bag (inflator) modules (driver, passenger, side
and curtain) or seat belt pretensioners (drive and
passenger), wipe off immediately with a dry cloth.
• Air bag wire harness is included in floor and
instrument panel wire harnesses. Air bag wire
harness branched off from floor and instrument panel
wire harnesses can be identified easily as it is covered
with a yellow protection tube and it has yellow
connectors. Be very careful when handling it.
• When an open in air bag wire harness, damaged wire
harness, connector or terminal is found, replace wire
harness, connectors and terminals as an assembly.
• Do not apply power to the air bag system unless all
components are connected or a diagnostic flow
requests it, as this will set a DTC.
• Never use air bag system component parts from
another vehicle.
• When using electric welding, be sure to disconnect all
air bag (inflator) module connectors and pretensioner
connectors from air bag wire harness respectively.
• Never expose air bag system component parts
directly to hot air (drying or baking the vehicle after
painting) or flames.
• WARNING / CAUTION labels are attached on each
part of air bag system components. Be sure to follow
the instructions.
• After vehicle is completely repaired, perform “Air Bag
Diagnostic System Check in Section 8B”.
General PrecautionsS6RW0D0000002
The WARNING and CAUTION describe some general
precautions that you should observe when servicing a
vehicle. These general precautions apply to many of the
service procedures, and they will not necessarily be
repeated with each procedure to which they apply.

Inspection (If Equipped)
S6RW0D1306002
1) Remove air cleaner assembly.
2) Disconnect connector from MAP sensor.
3) Remove MAP sensor.
4) Arrange 3 new 1.5 V batteries (2) in series (check
that total voltage is 4.5 – 5.0 V) and connect its
positive terminal to “Vin” terminal of sensor and
negative terminal to “Ground” terminal. Then check
voltage between “Vout” and “Ground”. Also, check if
voltage reduces when vacuum is applied up to 400
mmHg by using vacuum pump (3).
If check result is not satisfactory, replace MAP
sensor (1).
Output voltage (When input voltage is 4.5 – 5.5 V,
ambient temp. 20 – 30 °C, 68 – 86 °F)
5) Install MAP sensor securely.
6) Connect MAP sensor connector securely.
7) Install air cleaner assembly.
Electric Throttle Body Assembly On-Vehicle
Inspection
S6RW0D1306003
WARNING!
Never touch throttle valve with finger while
ignition switch is turned ON and accelerator
pedal is depressed. Otherwise, injury may
result by pinching the finger between throttle
valve and throttle body housing.
CAUTION!
• Do not disassemble electric throttle body
assembly.
• Do not expose electric throttle body
assembly to excessive shock like a
dropping it. If electric throttle body
assembly has been exposed to excessive
shock, it should be replaced.
• Be careful not to accrete a foreign material
(like dust and/or metallic particle) to the
throttle body housing and/or throttle valve.
Otherwise, the throttle body assembly is
breaking down by throttle valve accretion.
• Do not apply excessive moving force to
throttle valve for throttle valve operation
check and/or TP sensor performance
check.
Otherwise, the throttle body assembly is
breaking down by damaging the internal
resinous gear of throttle valve actuator.
NOTE
After replacing electric throttle body
assembly, perform calibration of electric
throttle body assembly referring to “Electric
Throttle Body System Calibration”.

S6RW0D1306019
CAUTION!
• Do not disassemble MAF and IAT sensor.
• Do not expose MAF and IAT sensor to any
shock.
• Do not clean MAF and IAT sensor.
• If MAF and IAT sensor has been dropped, it
should be replaced.
• Do not blow compressed air by using air
gun or the like.
• Do not put finger or any other object into
MAF and IAT sensor. Malfunction may
occur.
Removal
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Disconnect MAF and IAT sensor connector.
3) Remove air cleaner case (1).
4) Remove MAF and IAT sensor (2) from air cleaner
case.
Installation
Reverse removal procedure noting the followings.
• Tighten MAF and IAT sensor screws to specified
torque.
Tightening torque
MAF and IAT sensor screw: 1.5 N·m (0.15 kgf-m,
1.1 lb-ft)
• Connect MAF and IAT sensor connector securely.
Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor InspectionS6RW0D1306020
CAUTION!
Do not heat up MAF and IAT sensor more
than 100 °C (212 °F). Otherwise, MAF and IAT
sensor will be damaged.
• Check sensor O-ring (1) for damage and
deterioration. Replace as necessary.
• Blow hot air to temperature sensing part (2) of MAF
and IAT sensor (3) using hot air drier (4) and measure
resistance between sensor terminals while heating air
gradually.
If measured resistance does not show such
characteristic as shown, replace MAF and IAT sensor.
