AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WHEN SCRAPPING VE-
HICLE

(a)

Check the function of the SST (see step 1–(a) on page 

RS–23

).

SST

09082–00700

(b)

Precaution (see page 

RS–1

 and 

RS–3

).

(c)

Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal.

Wait for 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable to prevent the
airbag working.
(d)

Remove the roof headlining (see page 

BO–101

).

(e)

Disconnect the curtain shield airbag connector.

NOTICE:
When handling the airbag connector, be careful not to dam-
age the airbag wire harness.

(f)

Install the SST.
(1)

Connect the connectors of the SST to the curtain
shield airbag assembly.

SST

09082–00700, 09082–00802 (09082–10801,
09082–20801)

NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.

(2)

Move the SST at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the ve-
hicle rear side window.

(3)

Maintaining enough clearance for the SST wire har-
ness in the rear side window, close all doors and
windows of the vehicle.

NOTICE:
Take care not to damage the SST wire harness.

(4)

Connect the red clip of the SST to the battery posi-
tive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST to the
negative (–) terminal.

(g)

Deploy the airbag.
(1)

Check that no one is inside the vehicle or within a
10 m (33 ft) radius of the vehicle.

(2)

Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.

CAUTION:

When deploying the airbag, make sure that no one is
near the vehicle.

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.

HINT:
The airbag deploys as the LED of the SST activation switch
comes on.

DEPLOYMENT WHEN DISPOSING  OF CURTAIN
SHIELD AIRBAG ASSEMBLY

NOTICE:

When disposing of the curtain shield airbag assem-
bly, never use the customer’s vehicle to deploy the
airbag.

Be sure to follow the procedure given below when de-
ploying the airbag.

HINT:
Prepare a battery as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a)

Check the function of the SST (see step 1–(a) on page 

RS–23

).

(b)

Remove the curtain shield airbag assembly (see page 

RS–97

).

When removing the front passenger airbag assembly,
work must be started 90 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ”LOCK” position and the nega-
tive (–) terminal cable is disconnected from the bat-
tery.

When storing the front passenger airbag assembly,
keep the airbag deployment side facing upward.

(c)

Cut off the deployment section of the curtain shield airbag
assembly.

(d)

Using a service–purpose wire harness for the vehicle, tie
down the front passenger airbag assembly to the tire.
Wire harness: Stripped wire harness section

or more (0.0019 in

. or more)

CAUTION:
If the wire harness is too thin or an alternative object is
used to tie down the curtain shield airbag assembly, it may
be snapped by the shock when the airbag is deployed. Al-
ways use a wire harness for vehicle use with an area of at
least 1.25 mm

 (0.0019 in

2

.).

HINT:
To calculate the area of the stripped wire harness section:

Area = 3.14 x (Diameter)

2

 divided by 4

(1)

Position the curtain shield airbag assembly inside
the tire with the airbag deployment side facing in-
side.

Tire size: Must exceed the following dimensions:
Width: 185 mm (7.28 in.)
Inner diameter: 360 mm (14.17 in.)

CAUTION:

Make sure that the wire harness is tight. If there is
slack in wire harness, the curtain shield airbag as-
sembly may become loose due to the shock when the
airbag is deployed.

Always tie down the curtain shield airbag assembly
with the airbag deployment side facing inside.

NOTICE:
The tire will be marked by the airbag deployment, so use an
extra tire.

(e)

Install the SST.
After connecting the SST below to each other, connect
them to the curtain shield airbag assembly.
SST

09082–00802 (09082–10801, 09082–20801)

(f)

Place tires.
(1)

Place at least 2 tires under the tire which the curtain
shield airbag assembly is tied to.

(2)

Place at least 2 tires over the tire which the curtain
shield airbag assembly is tied to. The top tire should
have the disc wheel installed.

NOTICE:
Do not place the SST connector under the tire because it
could be damaged.

(3)

Tie the tires together with 2 wire harness.

CAUTION:
Make sure that the wire harness is tight. Looseness in the
wire harness results in the tires coming free due to the
shock when the airbag is deployed.

(g)

Install the SST.
Connect the SST connector.
SST

09082–00700

NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock. Also, se-
cure some slack for the SST wire harness inside the tire.
(h)

Deploy the airbag.
(1)

Connect the red clip of the SST to the battery posi-
tive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST to the
battery negative (–) terminal.

(2)

Check that no one is within a 10 m (33 ft) radius of
the tire which the shield airbag assembly is tied to.
