When Scrapping Vehicle

AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT WHEN SCRAPPING VEHICLE

HINT: Have a battery ready as the power source to deploy the airbag.




a. Check functioning of the SST

CAUTION: When deploying the airbag, always use the specified SST: SRS Airbag Deployment Tool.
SST 09082-00700




1. Connect the SST to battery.
Connect the red clip of the SST to the battery positive (+) terminal and the black clip to the battery negative (-) terminal.

HINT: Do not connect the yellow connector which will be connected with the supplemental restraint system.




2. Check functioning of the SST
Press the SST activation switch, and confirm the LED of the SST activation switch lights up.

CAUTION: If the LED lights up when the activation switch is not being pressed, SST malfunction is probable, so definitely do not use the SST.




b. Disconnect the airbag connector.
1. Remove the glove compartment door.
2. Disconnect the airbag connector.

NOTICE: When handling the airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.




c. Install the SST.
1. Connect the SST connector to the front passenger airbag assembly connector
SST 09082-00700

NOTICE: To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness, do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.

Install SST:

2. Move the SST to at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the front of the vehicle.
3. Close all the doors and windows of the vehicle.

NOTICE: Take care not to damage the SST wire harness.

4. Connect the SST red clip to the battery positive (+) terminal and the black clip to the negative (+) terminal.




d. Deploy the airbag.
1. Check that no one is inside the vehicle or within 1 m (33 ft) area around the vehicle.
2. Press the SST activation switch and deploy the airbag.

HINT: The airbag deploys simultaneously as the LED of the SST activation switch lights up.

e. Dispose of the front passenger airbag assembly.

CAUTION:
- The front passenger airbag assembly is very hot when the airbag is deployed, so leave it alone for at least 30 minutes after deployment.
- Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front passenger airbag assembly with deployed airbag.
- Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.
- Do not apply water, etc. to a front passenger airbag assembly with deployed airbag.

1. When scrapping a vehicle, deploy the airbag and scrap the vehicle with the front passenger airbag assembly still installed.
2. When moving a vehicle for scrapping which has a front passenger airbag assembly with deployed airbag, use gloves and safety glasses.
