(5) Disconnect the deployment harnesses as far from the
front seat back assembly possible and connect the
harnesses to the battery removed from the vehicle.
Then, deploy.
Caution
1) Before the deployment, see that no one is near
the front seat back assembly.
2) The deployment makes the inflator of the side
air bag very hot. Before handling the inflator,
wait more than 30 minutes for cooling.
3) If the side air bag module fails to deploy
although the procedure is respected, do not
go near the module. Contact your local
distributor.
(6) Remove the deployed side air bag module from the
seat back assembly and discard as specified in the
procedure (Refer to P.52B-60.).
Seat belt pre-tensioner
(1) Remove the seat belt pre-tensioner from the vehicle.
(Refer to P.52B-44.)
Caution
The seat belt pre-tensioner should be stored on
a flat surface and placed so that the air bag
operation surfaces are facing upward. Do not place
anything on top of them.
(2) Prepare two wires longer than 6 m for deployment and
connect the terminals in one end to short-circuit. This
is to prevent accidental operation 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 operation caused by static.
(4) Using pliers, cut the seat belt pre-tensioner connector
from the harnesses. Connect the deployment
harnesses to each harness that has been cut and
insulate the connections with plastic tape.
(5) Pass the wires through the hole on the seat belt
retractor bracket and secure them to the front (raised
part) of the old tyre wheel assembly on two places.
