Before performing pre-disposal deployment of any SRS component, review and closely follow all applicable environmental and hazardous material regulations. Pre-disposal deployment may be considered hazardous material treatment.

HINT
When scrapping vehicles equipped with seat belt pretensioners or disposing of a front seat outer belt (with a seat belt pretensioner), always deploy the seat belt pretensioner first in accordance with the procedure described below. If any abnormality occurs during deployment of the seat belt pretensioner, contact the SERVICE DEPARTMENT of TOYOTA MOTOR SALES, U.S.A., INC.

1. DISPOSE OF FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY (WHEN INSTALLED IN VEHICLE)

NOTICE:
* Never dispose of a front seat outer belt assembly with a pretensioner that has not been deployed.
* The seat belt pretensioner produces an exploding sound when it deploys, so perform the operation outdoors where it will not disturb local residents.
* When deploying a front seat outer belt (with a seat belt pretensioner), perform the operation at least 10 m (33 ft.) away from the front seat outer belt.
* Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front seat outer belt with a deployed pretensioner.
* Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.
* Do not apply water, etc. to a front seat outer belt with a deployed pretensioner.
* When deploying the seat belt pretensioner, always use the specified SST (SRS airbag deployment tool). Perform the operation in a place away from electrical interference.
* Be sure to follow the procedure listed below when deploying the seat belt pretensioner.
(a) Check the function of SST.





SST : 09082-00700

CAUTION:
When deploying the seat belt pretensioner, always use the specified SST.

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





HINT
At this time, do not connect the yellow connector. It will be connected to the seat belt pretensioner in later step.

(2) Press the SST deployment switch and check that the LED of the SST deployment switch lights up.





CAUTION:
If the LED is lit when the deployment switch is not pressed, SST may be malfunctioning. In this case, do not use the malfunctioning SST.

(3) Close all the doors and windows of the vehicle.

NOTICE:
Do not damage the SST wire harness.

(c) Deploy the front seat outer belt pretensioner.

(1) Confirm that no one is inside the vehicle or within a 10 m (33 ft.) radius of the vehicle.

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

(3) Press the SST deployment switch to deploy the front seat outer belt pretensioner.

HINT
The seat belt pretensioner will deploy at the same time as the SST LED illuminates.

(d) Dispose of the front seat outer belt assembly.





(1) Remove the front seat outer belt assembly and SST.

(2) Dispose of the front seat outer belt assembly in accordance with local regulations.
