Seat Belt Pre-tensioner with Load Limiter=NLRS0034The seat belt pre-tensioner system with load limiter is installed to
both the driver’s seat and the front passenger’s seat. It operates
simultaneously with the SRS air bag system in the event of a fron-
tal collision with an impact exceeding a specified level.
When the frontal collision with an impact exceeding a specified
level occurs, seat belt slack resulting from clothing or other factors
is immediately taken up by the pre-tensioner. Vehicle passengers
are securely restrained.
When passengers in a vehicle are thrown forward in a collision and
the restraining force of the seat belt exceeds a specified level, the
load limiter permits the specified extension of the seat belt by the
twisting of the ELR shaft, and a relaxation of the chest-area seat
belt web tension while maintaining force.

Disposal of Air Bag Module and Seat Belt Pre-
tensioner
NLRS0022+Before disposing of air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner,
or vehicles equipped with such systems, deploy the systems.
If such systems have already been deployed due to an
accident, dispose of them as indicated in“DISPOSING OF AIR
BAG MODULE AND SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”(RS-36).
+When deploying the air bag module and seat belt pre-
tensioner, always use the Special Service Tool; Deployment
tool KV99106400.
+When deploying the air bag module and seat belt pre-
tensioner, stand at least 5 m (16 ft) away from the deployment
component.
+When deploying air bag module and seat belt pre-tensioner, a
fairly loud noise is made, followed by smoke being released.
The smoke is not poisonous, however, be careful not to inhale
smoke since it irritates the throat and can cause choking.
+Always activate one air bag module at a time.
+Due to heat, leave air bag module unattended for more than
30 minutes after deployment. Also leave seat belt pre-ten-
sioner unattended for move than 10 minutes after deployment.
+Be sure to wear gloves when handling a deployed air bag
module and seat belt pre-tensioner.
+Never apply water to the deployed air bag module and seat
belt pre-tensioner.
+Wash your hands clean after finishing work.
+Place the vehicle outdoors with an open space of at least 6 m
(20 ft) on all sides when deploying air bag module and seat belt
pre-tensioner while mounted in vehicle.
+Use a voltmeter to make sure the vehicle battery is fully
charged.
+Do not dispose of the air bag module and seat belt pre-ten-
sioner un-deployed.
