PROCEDURE
1. PRECAUTION
CAUTION:
HINT:
When scrapping a vehicle equipped with an SRS or disposing of the front seat side airbag assembly, be sure to deploy the airbag first in accordance with the following procedure. If any abnormality occurs with the airbag deployment, contact the Service Department of the distributor.
2. DISPOSE OF FRONT SEAT AIRBAG ASSEMBLY (When Installed to Vehicle)
NOTICE:
HINT:
Prepare a battery as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a) Check the function of SST. Click here SST: 09082-00700 | |
(b) Refer to Precaution.
Click here
(c) Remove the 4 bolts and tilt the front seat assembly LH backward.
Click here
(d) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
Click here
(e) Install SST.
(1) Connect SST to the front seat airbag assembly.
SST: 09082-00820
(2) Connect SST together (09082-00700 and 09082-00820).
SST: 09082-00700
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging SST connector or wire harness, do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.
(f) Return the front seat assembly LH to its original position.

CAUTION:
Check that there is no looseness in the front seat assembly LH.
(g) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Move SST at least 10 m (32.8 ft.) away from the front side window of the vehicle. |
|
(2) While maintaining sufficient clearance for SST wire harness in the front side window, close all doors and windows of the vehicle.
CAUTION:
NOTICE:
Take care not to damage SST wire harness.
(3) Check that no one is inside the vehicle or within a 10 m (32.8 ft.) radius of the vehicle.
(4) Connect the red clip of SST to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black clip of SST to the negative (-) battery terminal.
(5) Press SST activation switch to deploy the airbag.
CAUTION:
HINT:
The airbag is deployed as the LED of SST activation switch comes on.
(h) Remove the front seat airbag assembly.

CAUTION:
(i) Dispose of the front seat airbag assembly.
(1) Place the front seat airbag assembly in a plastic bag, tie it tightly and dispose of it according to local regulations.
CAUTION:
3. DISPOSE OF FRONT SEAT AIRBAG ASSEMBLY (When not Installed to Vehicle)
NOTICE:

*a | Wire Diameter |
Stripped Wire |
(e) Using braided wire, tie down the front seat airbag assembly to an unneeded tire.
Wire:
Cross-sectional area of stripped wire
1.25 mm2 (0.0019 in.2) or more
CAUTION:
If the wire harness is too thin or an alternative object is used to tie down the front seat airbag assembly, it may snap when the airbag is deployed. Always use a wire for vehicle use with a cross-sectional area of at least 1.25 mm2 (0.0019 in.2).
HINT:
To calculate the area of the cross-sectional area of stripped wire:
Area = 3.14 x (Diameter)2 / 4
(1) Install the 2 nuts to the front seat airbag assembly. | |
(2) Wind 2 or more wires around the stud bolts of the front seat airbag assembly as shown in the illustration. | |
(3) Position the front seat airbag assembly inside the tire with the airbag deployment side facing inward.
*a | Width |
*b | Inner Diameter |
Minimum tire size:
Must exceed the following dimensions
Width
185 mm (7.28 in.)
Inner diameter
360 mm (1.18 ft.)
CAUTION:
*a | Remove looseness |
Deployment Side |
NOTICE:
The tire may be damaged by the airbag deployment, so use an unneeded tires.
(f) Install SST.
(1) Connect SST to the front seat airbag assembly. SST: 09082-00820 | |
(g) Place the tires.
(1) Place at least 2 tires under the tire to which the front seat airbag assembly is tied. |
|
(2) Place at least 2 tires onto the tire to which the front seat airbag assembly is tied. The top tire should have a wheel installed.
NOTICE:
(3) Tie the tires together with 2 wires. CAUTION: Make sure that the wires are tight. Looseness in the wires will result in the tires breaking loose when the airbag is deployed. | |
(h) Install SST.
(1) Connect SST together (09082-00700 and 09082-00820). SST: 09082-00700 NOTICE: To avoid damaging SST connector or wire harness, do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock. Also, secure some slack for SST wire harness inside the tire. |
|
(2) Move SST at least 10 m (32.8 ft.) away from the airbag tied down to the tires.
(i) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Connect the red clip of SST to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black clip of SST to the negative (-) battery terminal.
(2) Check that no one is within a 10 m (32.8 ft.) radius of the tire to which the front seat airbag assembly is tied.
(3) Press SST activation switch to deploy the airbag.
CAUTION:
HINT:
The airbag is deployed as the LED of SST activation switch comes on.
(j) Dispose of the front seat airbag assembly.
CAUTION:
(1) Remove the front seat airbag assembly from the tire.
(2) Place the front seat airbag assembly in a plastic bag, tie it tightly, and dispose of it according to local regulations.
