PRECAUTION
1. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH SRS AIRBAG AND
SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER
(a) The LEXUS GS400/GS300 is equipped with an SRS
(Supplemental Restraint System), such as the driver air-
bag, front passenger airbag assembly, side airbag as-
sembly and seat belt pretensioners.
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct se-
quence could cause the supplemental restraint system to
unexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to
a serious accident.
Further, if a mistake is made in servicing the supplemental
restraint system, it is possible the SRS may fail to operate
when required. Before servicing (including removal or
installation of parts, inspection or replacement), be sure
to read the following items carefully, then follow the cor-
rect procedure described in this manual.
(b) GENERAL NOTICE
(1) Malfunction symptoms of the supplemental re-
straint system are difficult to confirm, so the diag-
nostic trouble codes become the most important
source of information when troubleshooting. When
troubleshooting the supplemental restraint system,
always inspect the diagnostic trouble codes before
disconnecting the battery (See page DI±552).
(2) Work must be started after 90 seconds from the
time the ignition switch is turned to the ºLOCKº posi-
tion and the negative (±) terminal cable is discon-
nected from the battery.
(The supplemental restraint system is equipped
with a back±up power source so that if work is
started within 90 seconds of disconnecting the neg-
ative (±) terminal cable from the battery, the SRS
may deploy.)
When the negative (±) terminal cable is discon-
nected from the battery, memory of the clock and
audio systems will be cancelled. So before starting
work, make a record of the contents memorized by
the each memory system. Then when work is fin-
ished, reset the clock and audio systems as before.
This vehicle has power tilt and power telescopic
steering, power seat and power outside rear view
mirror, which are all equipped with memory function,
it is not possible to make a record of the memory
contents. So when the work is finished, therefore it
will be necessary to explain this fact to the custom-
er, and ask the customer to adjust the features and

reset the memory. To avoid erasing the memory of
each memory system, never use a back±up power
supply from another battery.
(3) Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS
does not deploy, the steering wheel pad, front pas-
senger airbag assembly, side airbag assembly,
front airbag sensor, side airbag sensor and seat belt
pretensioner should be inspected
(See page RS±15, RS±29, RS±42, RS±60, RS±65
and BO±125).
(4) Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When
replacing parts, replace them with new parts.
(5) Before repairs, remove the airbag sensor if shocks
are likely to be applied to the sensor during repairs.
(6) Never disassemble and repair the airbag sensor as-
sembly, side airbag sensor assembly, steering
wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, side
airbag assembly, front airbag sensor, side airbag
sensor or seat belt pretensioner.
(7) If the airbag sensor assembly, side airbag sensor
assembly, steering wheel pad, front passenger air-
bag assembly, side airbag assembly, front airbag
sensor, side airbag sensor or seat belt pretensioner
has been dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or
other defects in the case, bracket or connector, re-
place them with new ones.
(8) Do not directly expose the airbag sensor assembly,
side airbag sensor assembly, steering wheel pad,
front passenger airbag assembly, side airbag as-
sembly, front airbag sensor, side airbag sensor or
seat belt pretensioner to hot air or flames.
(9) Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 kW/V
minimum) for troubleshooting of the electrical cir-
cuit.
(10) Information labels are attached to the periphery of
the SRS components. Follow the instructions on the
notices.
(11) After work on the supplemental restraint system is
completed, check the SRS warning light (See page
DI±552).
(c) SPIRAL CABLE (in Combination Switch)
The steering wheel must be fitted correctly to the steering
column with the spiral cable at the neutral position, other-
wise cable disconnection and other troubles may result.
Refer to SR±17 of this manual concerning correct steer-
ing wheel installation.

(g) SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER
(1) Never measure the resistance of the seat belt pre-
tensioner. (This may cause the seat belt pretension-
er to activate, which is very dangerous.)
(2) Never disassemble the seat belt pretensioner.
(3) Never install the seat belt pretensioner in another
vehicle.
(4) Store the seat belt pretensioner where the ambient
temperature remains below 80°C (176°F) and
away from electrical noise without high humidity.
(5) When using electric welding, first disconnect the
connector (yellow color and 2 pins) before starting
work.
(6) When disposing of a vehicle or the seat belt preten-
sioner alone, the seat belt pretensioner should be
activated before disposal (See page BO±130). Per-
form the operation in a safe place away from electri-
cal noise.
(7) The seat belt pretensioner is hot after activation, so
let it cool down sufficiently before the disposal.
However never apply water to the seat belt preten-
sioner.
(8) Oil or water should not be put on the front seat outer
belt and the front seat outer belt should not be
cleaned with detergents of any kind.
