WARNING:
Failure to follow the following procedure and WARNING
may cause air bag deployment, personal injury, damage to
parts, or air bag being unable to deploy.

Never rest a steering column assembly on steering wheel
with air bag (inflator) module face down and column verti-
cal.

When handling the air bag (inflator) modules (driver and
passenger), be careful not to drop it or apply an impact to
it. If an excessive impact was applied (e.g., dropped from
a height of 91.4 cm (3 feet) or more, never attempt disas-
sembly or repair but replace it with a new one.

When grease, cleaning agent. Oil, water, etc. has got onto
air bag (inflator) modules (driver and passenger), wipe off
immediately with a dry cloth.
1) Disconnect negative (±) cable at battery.
2) Disable air bag system, if equipped. Refer to DISABLING AIR
BAG SYSTEM in Section 10B.
3) Drain engine coolant and disconnect heater hose (1) from
heater unit.
4) Remove instrument panel, refer to item INSTRUMENT PANEL
REMOVAL in Section 9.
5) Remove cooling unit (If equipped).
Refer to item EVAPORATOR (COOLING UNIT) REMOVAL in
Section 1B.
6) Disconnect rear duct (4) from heater unit.
7) Disconnect heater mode control actuator lead wire (1) at cou-
plers.
8) Remove A / C controller (2) (If equipped).
9) Remove SDM (3) (If equipped).
10) Remove heater unit.

12) Pull out heater core (1) from unit (2).
INSTALLATION
1) Install heater unit by reversing removal procedure, noting the
following items.

When installing each part, be careful not to catch any cable or
wiring harness.

When installing steering column assembly, refer to STEER-
ING COLUMN INSTALLATION in Section 3C or 3C1.
2) Install control cables. (Refer to HEATER CONTROL CABLES in
this section.)
3) Fill engine coolant to radiator.
4) Enable air bag system, if equipped. Refer to ENABLING AIR
BAG SYSTEM in Section 10B.
5) Evacuate and charge system. Refer to items EVACUATING
SYSTEM and PROCEDURE OF CHARGING in Section 1B.
