General Information - Repair Instruction1-7 (3) Driver Airbag Assembly
a. When removing the driver airbag assembly or handling a new driver airbag assembly, it should be placed
with the steering wheel top surface facing up. Storing the steering wheel with its top surface facing downward
may lead to a serious accident if the airbag deploys for some reason. In addition do not store a driver airbag
assembly on top of another one.
b. Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib. (This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
c. Grease should not be applied to the driver airbag assembly and the pad should not be cleaned with
detergents of any kind. (2) Clock Spring (in combination switch)
The steering wheel must be fitted correctly to the steering col-
umn with the clock spring at the neutral position, otherwise clock
spring disconnection and other troubles may result.
c. Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS does not deploy, the driver airbag assembly, front
passenger airbag assembly and seat belt pretensioner should be inspected.

e. Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When replacing parts, replace them with new parts.

f. Before repairs, remove the airbag ECU if shocks are likely to be applied to the sensor during repairs.

g. Never disassemble and repair the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag
assembly or seat belt pretensioner.

h. If the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag assembly or seat belt
pretensioner has been dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or other defects in the case, bracket or connector,
replace them with new ones.

i. Do not directly expose the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag assem-
bly or seat belt pretensioner to hot air or flames.

j. Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 k ohm/ V minimum) for troubleshooting of the electrical
circuit.
Information labels are attached to the periphery of the SRS components. Follow the instructions on the
notices.
After work on the supplemental restraint system is completed, check the SRS warning light MarkCorrectWrongd.

General Information - Repair Instruction1-8 (5) Seat Belt Pretensioner
a. Never measure the resistance of the seat belt pretensioner. (This may cause the seat belt pretensioner to
activate, which is very dangerous.)
b. Never disassemble the seat belt pretensioner.
c. Never install the seat belt pretensioner in another vehicle.
d. Store the seat belt pretensioner where the ambient temperature remains below 80°C and away from
electrical noise without high humidity.
e. When using electric welding, first disconnect the connector (yellow color and 2 pins) before starting
work.
f. When disposing of a vehicle or the seat belt pretensioner alone, the seat belt pretensioner should be
activated before disposal. Perform the operation in a safe place away from electrical noise.
g. The seat belt pretensioner is hot after activation, so let it cool down sufficiently before the disposal.
However never apply water to the seat belt pretensioner.
h. There should be no oil or water on the seat belt, no cleanser should be used to wash it. d. Store the driver airbag assembly where the ambient temperature remains below 93°C , without
high humidity and away from electrical noise.
e. When using electric welding, first disconnect the airbag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) under the
steering column near the combination switch connector before starting work.
f. When disposing of a vehicle or the driver airbag assembly alone, the airbag should be deployed using an
SST before disposal. Perform the operation in a safe place away from electrical noise.
(4) Front Passenger Airbag Assembly
a. Always store a removed or new front passenger airbag assembly with the airbag rupture surface facing
up. Storing the airbag assembly with the airbag rupture surface facing down could cause a serious accident if the
airbag inflates.
b. Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib. (This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
c. Grease should not be applied to the front passenger airbag assembly and the airbag door should not be
cleaned with detergents of any kind.
d. Store the airbag assembly where the ambient temperature remains below 93°C , without high humidity
and away from electrical noise.
e. When using electric welding, first disconnect the airbag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) installed on
the assembly before starting work.
f. When disposing of a vehicle or the airbag assembly alone, the airbag should be deployed using an SST
before disposal. Perform the operation in a safe place away from electrical noise.Correct

inspect for leaks. Check if there is oil/water marks at static joints,
or if there is oil/water drops dripping down at dynamic joints
10min after the vehicle is stopped, there is a leak; if there is oil/
water marks/drops, but it does not drip down, there is seepage.Measure the temperature of transmission oil inspection hole.
Usually it is not higher than ambient temperature.
Check the surface temperature of wheel trim column. Usually
it is no higher than ambient temperature.

a circle with same steering wheel angle, and accelerate from
low to high speed, the diameter of the circle increases gradually.
