Side Air Bag Module
1. Remove the side air bag module.
(See 08-10-8 SIDE AIR BAG MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2. Install the nuts to the side air bag module as
shown in the figure, and connect the SST
(Adapter harness).
3. Place the padded surface of the side air bag
module facing the center of the tire as shown in
the figure. To secure the air bag module to the tire
wheel, wrap a wire (cross section 1.25 mm
2
{0.002 in } or more) through the tire and around
the bolts at least 4 times.
Warning
• If the air bag module is not properly
secured to the tire, the tires may fall over
by the impact of operation (deployment)
and cause serious injury. To prevent this,
secure the air bag module properly with
the padded surface facing the center of the tire.
4. Stack the tire with the side air bag module on top
of two tires without wheels. Stack a tire without a
wheel on top of the tire with the side air bag
module, and then stack another tire with a wheel
on the very top.
5. Secure the tires with wire.
