Installation Ð Air Bag Module and Spiral Cable
1. Set the front wheels in the straight-ahead position.
2. Make sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position. The
neutral position is detected by turning left about 2.5 revolutions
from the right end position. Align the two marks (
,
m).
CAUTION:
+The spiral cable may snap due to steering operation if the
cable is installed in an improper position.
+Also, with the steering linkage disconnected, the cable
may snap by turning the steering wheel beyond the limited
number of turns. The spiral cable can be turned to the left
about 2.5 turns from the right end position.
3. Connect and lock spiral cable connector and tighten with
screws. Install steering column cover.
4. Install steering wheel, aligning with spiral cable pin guides, and
pull spiral cable through.
5. Connect horn connector and engage spiral cable with pawls in
steering wheel. Move air bag module connector away from
steering wheel lower lid opening.
6. Tighten nut.

11. Turn steering wheel to the left end and then to the right end fully
to make sure that spiral cable is set in the neutral position.
If air bag warning lamp blinks or stays ON (at the User mode),
it shows the spiral cable may be snapped due to its improper
position. Perform self-diagnosis again (use CONSULT or warn-
ing lamp). If a malfunction is detected, replace the spiral cable
with a new one.
12. Perform self-diagnosis again to check that no malfunction is
detected.

Disposal of Air Bag Module and Seat Belt Pre-
tensioner
+Before disposing of air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner, or vehicles equipped with such systems,
deploy the systems. If such systems have already been deployed due to an accident, dispose of as indi-
cated in ``DISPOSING OF AIR BAG MODULE AND SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER'' (RS-21).
+When deploying the air bag module, always use the Special Service Tool; Deployment tool KV99106400,
KV99108200 and KV99108300.
+When deploying the air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner, stand at least 5 m (16 ft) away from the
deployment component.
+When deploying air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner, a fairly loud noise is made, followed by smoke
being released. The smoke is not poisonous, however, be careful not to inhale smoke since it irritates throat
and can cause choking.
+Always activate one air bag module at a time.
+Due to heat, leave air bag module unattended for more than 30 minutes after deployment. Also leave seat
belt pre-tensioner unattended for more than 10 minutes after deployment.
+Be sure to wear gloves when handling a deployed air bag module.
+Never apply water to a deployed air bag module.
+Wash your hands clean after ®nishing work.
+Do not dispose of the air bag module un-deployed.
+Place the vehicle outdoors with an open space of at least 6 m (20 ft) on all sides when deploying the air
bag module while mounted in vehicle.
+Use a voltmeter to make sure the vehicle battery is fully charged.
CHECKING DEPLOYMENT TOOL
Connecting to battery
CAUTION:
The battery must show voltage of 9.6V or more.
Remove the battery from the vehicle and place it on dry wood
blocks approximately 5 m (16 ft) away from the vehicle.
+Wait 3 minutes after the vehicle battery is disconnected before
proceeding.
+Connect red clip of deployment tool to battery positive terminal
and black clip to negative terminal.
Make sure the polarity is correct. The right side lamp in the
tool, marked ``deployment tool power'', should glow with a
green light. If the right side lamp glows red, reverse the con-
nections to the battery.

DEPLOYMENT PROCEDURES FOR AIR BAG MODULE
(OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE)
Unless the vehicle is being scrapped, deploying the air bag in the
vehicle is not recommended. This may cause damage to the
vehicle interior.
Anchor air bag module in a vise secured to a ®rm foundation dur-
ing deployment.
Deployment of driver's air bag module (outside of
vehicle)
1. Using wire, secure air bag module to air bag module bracket
(SST: KV99105300).
CAUTION:
Use wire of at least 1 mm (0.04 in) diameter.
2. Firmly secure air bag module bracket (SST: KV99105300) with
air bag module attached, in a vise.
3. Connect deployment tool (SST: KV99106400) to air bag mod-
