When Scrapping Vehicle Deployment Method
DISPOSALHINT: When scrapping a vehicle equipped with SRS or disposing of an instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy, be sure to deploy the airbag first in accordance with the procedure described below.If any abnormality occurs with the airbag deployment, contact the SERVICE DEPT.of TOYOTA MOTOR SALES, U.S.A., INC.
CAUTION:
- Never dispose of the instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy that has an undeployed airbag.
- The airbag produces an extremely exploding sound when it is deployed, so perform the operation outdoors and where it will not create a nuisance to nearby residents.
- When deploying the airbag, always use the specified SST(s) (SRS Airbag Deployment Tool).Perform the operation in a place away from electrical noise.
- When deploying the airbag, perform the operation at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy.
- The instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy is extremely hot when the airbag is deployed, so do not touch it for at least 30 minutes after deployment.
- Use gloves and safety glasses when handling the instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy with the deployed airbag.
- Do not apply water, etc.to the instr pnl pass l/door air-bag assy with the deployed airbag.
- Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.
DISPOSE OF INSTR PNL PASS L/DOOR AIR BAG ASSY (WHEN SCRAPPING VEHICLE DEPLOYMENT METHOD)
HINT: Prepare a battery as the power source to deploy the airbag.
a. Check the function of the SST(s).
CAUTION: When deploying the airbag, always use the specified SST(s): SRS Airbag Deployment Tool.
SST 09082-00700
1. Connect the SST(s) to the battery.
Connect the red clip of the SST(s) to the battery positive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST(s) to the battery negative (-) terminal.
HINT: Do not connect the yellow connector of the SST(s) which is to be connected with the supplemental restraint system.
2. Check the function of the SST(s).
Press the SST(s) activation switch, and check that the LED of the SST(s) activation switch comes on.
CAUTION: If the LED comes on when the activation switch is not being pressed, SST(s) malfunction is possible, so be sure not to use the SST(s).
3. Disconnect the SST(s) from the battery.
b. Disconnect the airbag connectors.
1. Remove the instrument panel under cover sub-assy No.2.
2. Remove the glove compartment door assy.
3. Using a screwdriver, disconnect the airbag connectors.
NOTE: When handling the airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.
c. Install the SST(s).
1. Connect the connector of the SST(s) to the instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy.
SST 09082-00700, 09082-00802 (09082-10801, 09082-30801)
NOTE: To avoid damaging the SST(s) connector and wire harness, do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.
2. Move the SST(s) to at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the front of the vehicle.
3. Close vehicle doors and windows.
NOTE: Take care not to damage the SST(s) wire harness.
4. Connect the red clip of the SST(s) to the battery positive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST(s) to the negative (-) terminal.
d. Deploy the airbag.
1. Check that no one is inside the vehicle or within a 10 m (33 ft) radius of the vehicle.
2. Press the activation switch of the SST(s) and deploy the airbag.
HINT: The airbag is deployed as the LED of the SST(s) activation switch comes on.
e. Dispose of the instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy.
CAUTION:
- The instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy is extremely hot when the airbag is deployed, so do not touch it for at least 30 minutes after deployment.
- Use gloves and safety glasses when handling the instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy with the deployed airbag.
- When moving the vehicle for scrapping which has the instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy with the deployed airbag, use gloves and safety glasses.
- Do not apply water, etc.to the instr pnl pass l/door air-bag assy with the deployed airbag.
- Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.
HINT: When scrapping a vehicle, deploy the airbag and scrap the vehicle with the instr pnl pass l/door airbag assy still installed.
