Place at least 2 tires under the tire to which the side
airbag assembly is tied.

airbag assembly is tied. The top tire should have the
wheel installed.

at least 1 m (3 ft) of slack for the wire harness.
(g)

the tire which the side airbag assembly is tied to.
(3)
Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.
HINT:
The airbag deploys simultaneously as the LED of the SST ac-
tivation switch lights up.

Do not apply water etc. to a side airbag assembly with
the deployed airbag.
