Front Passenger Airbag Assembly

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS: FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY: DISPOSAL

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

1. PRECAUTION

HINT
When scrapping a vehicle equipped with the SRS or disposing of the instrument panel passenger airbag, be sure to deploy the airbag first in accordance with the procedure described below. If any abnormality occurs with airbag deployment, contact the SERVICE DEPT. of the TOYOTA MOTOR SALES, U.S.A., INC.

CAUTION:
* An airbag or pretensioner may be activated by static electricity. To prevent this, be sure to touch a metal surface with bare hands to discharge static electricity before performing this procedure.
* Never dispose of an instrument panel passenger airbag that has an undeployed airbag.
* The airbag produces an 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 (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 (32.8 ft) away from the instrument panel passenger airbag.
* The instrument panel passenger airbag becomes 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 an instrument panel passenger airbag a deployed airbag.
* Do not apply water, etc. to an instrument panel passenger airbag with a deployed airbag.
* Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.

NOTICE:
Be sure to follow the procedure detailed below when deploying the airbag.

HINT
Prepare a battery as the power source to deploy the airbag.

(a) Check the function of SST Steering Pad.

(b) Read the Precaution Service Precautions.

(c) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

Text in Illustration

Cross-sectional area of stripped wire harness section:

1.25 mm2 (0.0019 in.2) or more

CAUTION:
If the wire harness is too thin or an alternative object is used to tie the instrument panel passenger airbag, it may be snapped by the shock when the airbag is deployed. Always use a wire harness for vehicle use with a cross-sectional area of at least 1.25 mm2 (0.0019 in.2).

HINT
To calculate the cross-sectional area of the stripped wire harness section:

Cross-sectional area = 3.14 x (Diameter)2 / 4
