Disposal Procedures52B-70
(7) Separate the deployment harnesses as far from the
driver’s side air bag module as possible and connect
to the terminals of the battery removed from the
vehicle. Then deploy.
Caution
1) Before the deployment, see that no one is near
around the driver’s air bag module.
2) The deployment makes the inflator of the
driver’s air bag very hot. Before handling the
inflator, wait more than 30 minutes for cooling.
3) If the driver’s air bag module fails to deploy
although the procedure is respected, do not go
near the module. Contact your local
distributor.
(8) Discard the deployed air bag module as specified
in Deployed Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.
(Refer to P.52B-75.)
Driver’s side air bag module
type>
(1) Remove the steering wheel - air bag module assembly
from the vehicle. (Refer to P.52B-52.)
Caution
Once disconnected, both electrodes of the driver’s
air bag module connector short automatically to
prevent accidental deployment caused by static
etc. Still, in consideration of the accidental
deployment, store the air bag module on flat place
with deployment surface facing up. Also, do not
put anything on it.
(2) Prepare two deployment harnesses longer than 6 m
for deployment and connect the terminals in one end
to short-circuit. This is to prevent accidental
deployment caused by static etc.
(3) Touch the vehicle’s body with bare hands to discharge
static in you.
Caution
Never fail to do Step (3) in order to prevent
accidental deployment caused by static.

(4) Release the secured connector of the steering
wheel - driver’s air bag module assembly to cut off
the connector from the harness with a nipper and
etc. Connect deployment harnesses to each of two
separated harnesses and cover the area with
insulation tape.
(5) Use a rope to tie the steering wheel - driver’s air bag
module assembly to secure old tyres with wheels.
(6) Route the deployment harness connected to driver’s
air bag module beneath old tyres with wheels. Then,
secure the steering wheel - driver’s air bag module
assembly with the deployment surface facing up.
(7) Place three old tyres without wheels on the tyre
secured with the driver’s air bag module.
(8) Separate the deployment harnesses as far from the
driver’s side air bag module as possible and connect
to the terminals of the battery removed from the
vehicle. Then deploy.
Caution
1) Before the deployment, see that no one is near
around the driver’s air bag module.
2) The deployment makes the inflator of the
driver’s air bag very hot. Before handling the
inflator, wait more than 30 minutes for cooling.
3) If the driver’s air bag module fails to deploy
although the procedure is respected, do not go
near the module. Contact your local
distributor.
(9) Discard the deployed air bag module as specified
in Deployed Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.

(6) Disconnect the deployment harnesses as far from
the front passenger’s air bag module as possible and
connect the harnesses to the battery removed from
the vehicle.
Caution
1) Before the deployment, see that no one is near
the front passenger’s air bag module.
2) The deployment makes the inflator of the front
passenger’s air bag very hot. Before handling
the inflator, wait more than 30 minutes for
cooling.
3) If the front passenger’s air bag module fails to
deploy although the procedure is respected,
do not go near the module. Contact your local
distributor.
(7) Discard the deployed air bag module as specified
in Deployed Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.
(Refer to P.52B-75.)
Seat belt pre-tensioner
(1) Remove the seat belt with pre-tensioner from the
vehicle. (Refer to P.52B-61.)
Caution
Once disconnected, both electrodes of the seat
belt pre-tensioner are short-circuited
automatically to prevent accidental deployment
caused by static etc. Still, in consideration of the
accidental deployment, store the air bag module
on flat place with deployment surface facing up.
Also, do not put anything on it.
(2) Connect deployment harness 6 m or longer with the
SRS air bag adapter harness respectively. Insulate
the connection with tape.
Moreover, the ends of the operation harness should
be connected (short-circuited) to each other. Thus,
it prevents the seat belt pre-tensioner from accidental
deployment caused by static and etc.

(3) Route a thick wire through the holes in the seat belt
retractor bracket to secure at the top of the wheel
(convex part). (two locations)
(4) Connect the seat belt pre-tensioner connector to the
the SRS air bag adapter harness with the operation
harness attached.
(5) Pull out the seat belt outside the tyre.
Caution
Place the connector of the SRS air bag adapter
harness so that it is not clamped by the tyres at
deployment.
(6) Place an old tyre (without a wheel) on the tyre, which
the seat belt with pre-tensioner is secured on.
(7) Disconnect the deployment harness as far fromthe
seat belt pre-tensioner as possible and connect the
both terminals of the battery removed from the vehicle.
Then deploy.
Caution
1) Before the deployment, see that no one is near
the seat belt pre-tensioner.
2) Before handling the insulator, wait for a while
for cooling.
3) If the seat belt pre-tensioner fails to operate
although the procedure is respected, do not go
near the seat belt pre-tensioner. Contact your
local distributor.
(8) Discard the operated seat belt pre-tensioner

SERVICE SPECIFICATION
ItemSpecification
Specific gravity of the battery fluid1.220 - 1.290 [20_C]
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
FLUID LEVEL AND SPECIFIC GRAVITY CHECK
1. Inspect whether or not the battery fluid is between the
UPPER LEVEL and LOWER LEVEL marks.
Caution
(1) If the battery fluid is below the LOWER LEVEL,
the battery could explode in using.
(2) If the battery fluid is over the UPPER LEVEL,
leakage could result.
2. Use a hydrometer and thermometer to check the specific
gravity of the battery fluid.
Standard value: 1.220 - 1.290 [20_C]
The specific gravity of the battery fluid varies with the
temperature, so use the following formula to calculate
the specific gravity for 20_C. Use the calculated value
to determine whether or not the specific gravity is
satisfactory.
D20 = (t - 20)×0.0007 + Dt
D20: Specific gravity of the battery fluid calculated
for 20_C.
Dt: Actually measured specific gravity
t: Actually measured temperature
CHARGING
1. Remove the battery from the vehicle.
2. The normal charging current is a value in amperes which is 1/10th of the battery capacity. If the
battery needs to be charged rapidly because of reasons such as time limitations, the maximum charging
current for rapid charging is the battery capacity expressed as an ampere value.
Battery typeCapacity (5-hour rate)Normal charging currentRapid charging current

3. Determine when charging is finished.
DWhen the specific gravity of the battery electrolyte is constantly within 1.250 - 1.290 for a
continuous period of one hour or more
DWhen the voltage per cell during charging is 2.5 - 2.8 V constantly for a continuous period
of one hour or more

Caution
1. The battery plugs should be removed during charging.
2. The battery electrolyte level may rise and overflow from the battery during charging.
3. Explosions may occur if the battery is brought close to naked flames during charging.
4. Be careful to avoid tasks that might produce sparks or other danger while the battery is
charging.
5. After charging is complete, replace the battery plugs, pour water over the battery to rinse
away any sulphuric acid, and let the battery stand to dry.
6. Charge the battery in a well-ventilated location.
7. Do not let the battery electrolyte temperature rise above approximately 45_C
(approximately 55_Cduring rapid charging).
BATTERY TESTING PROCEDURE
TEST STEP
