Mount the roof side rail bracket by fitting both hooks to body holes then tighten the bolt to 9.8 Nm (100 kgf-cm, 86 in-lbf). Complete the installation of the curtain shield back bracket by using the same process before torquing it to 9.8 Nm (100 kgf-cm, 86 in-lbf).

Tighten Bolt A to 9.8 Nm (100 kgf-cm, 86 in-lbf) while Bolt B requires 14 Nm (143 kgf-cm, 10 ft-lbf) torque when securing the assembly preventing any twisting of components during installation. Push pins inside the clips to full insertion and apply marks which prevent clip re-use before you connect the Air Bag with its locking button situated tightly in place.
