− STEERING WHEEL PAD AND SPIRAL CABLE
CAUTION:
If a wire harness which is too thin or some other thing is
used to tie down the steering wheel pad, it may be snapped
by the shock when the airbag is deployed. This is highly
dangerous. Always use a wire harness for vehicle use
which is at least 1.25 mm
(3) Using 3 wire harness, wind the wire harness at least
2 times each around the bolts installed on the left
and right sides of the steering wheel pad.
CAUTION:
Tightly wind the wire harness around the bolts so that
S
there is no slack.
If there is slackness in the wire harness, the steering
S
wheel pad may come loose due to the shock when the
airbag is deployed. This is highly dangerous.

(4) Face the upper surface of the steering wheel pad
upward. Separately tie the left and right sides of the
steering wheel pad to the disc wheel through the
hub nut holes. Position the steering wheel pad con-
nector so that it hangs downward through a hub
hole in the disc wheel.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the wire harness is tight. It is very dan-
S
gerous when looseness in the wire harness results in

the steering wheel pad coming free through the shock
from the airbag deploying.
Always tie down the steering wheel pad with the pad
S
side facing upward. It is very dangerous when the
steering wheel pad is tied down with the metal sur-
face facing upward and the steering wheel pad will be
thrown into the air.

The disc wheel will be marked by airbag deployment, so
use the spare disc wheel.
