SRS AIRBAG — Disposal of Steering Wheel Pad (with Airbag) AB-85
3. FIX STEERING WHEEL PAD TO DISC WHEEL WITH TIRE
(a) Install bolts with washers in the four bolt holes in the steering wheel pad.
Bolt: L 35.0 mm (1.378 in.)
M 6.0 mm
Pitch 1.0 mm
NOTICE: Tighten the bolts by hand until the bolts become difficult to turn.
Do not tighten the bolts too much.
(b) Using a service-purpose wire harness for vehicle, tie down the steering wheel pad to the disc wheel.
Wire harness: Stripped wire harness section 1.25 mm² or more (0.002 in.² or more)
HINT: To calculate the square of the stripped wire harness section —
Square = 3.14 × (Diameter)²

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 mm² (0.002 in.²).
(1) Using 3 wire harnesses, wrap the wire harnesses 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 there is no slack.
If there is slackness in the wire harness, the steering wheel pad may come loose due to the shock when the airbag is deployed, this is highly dangerous.
