(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 and
seat belt pretensioner should be inspected (See
page RS- 15, RS- 30, RS- 44, RS- 57 and
BO-130).
(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, steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag
assembly, side airbag assembly or seat belt preten-
sioner.
(7) If the airbag sensor assembly, steering wheel pad,
front passenger airbag assembly, side airbag as-
sembly or seat belt pretensioner has been dropped,
or if there are cracks, dents or other defects in the
case, bracket or connector, replace them with new
ones.
(8) Do not directly expose the airbag sensor assembly,
steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assem-
bly, side airbag assembly 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-349).
(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-22 of this manual concerning correct steer-
ing wheel installation.

(d) STEERING WHEEL PAD (with Airbag)
(1) When removing the steering wheel pad or handling
a new steering wheel pad, it should be placed with
the pad top surface facing up.
Storing the pad with its metallic surface facing up-
ward may lead to a serious accident if the airbag de-
ploys for some reason. In addition do not store a
steering wheel pad on top of another one.
(2) Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib.
(This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
(3) Grease should not be applied to the steering wheel
pad and the pad should not be cleaned with deter-
gents of any kind.
(4) Store the steering wheel pad where the ambient
temperature remains below 93°C (200°F), without
high humidity and away from electrical noise.
(5) When using electric welding, first disconnect the air-
bag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) under the
steering column near the combination switch con-
nector before starting work.
(6) When disposing of a vehicle or the steering wheel
pad alone, the airbag should be deployed using an
SST before disposal (See page RS-17).
Carry out the operation in a safe place away from
electrical noise.

2. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A CATALYTIC CONVERTER
CAUTION:
If large amount of unburned gasoline flows into the converter, it may overheat and create a fire haz-
ard. To prevent this, observe the following precautions and explain them to your customer.
(a) Use only unleaded gasoline.
(b) Avoid prolonged idling.
Avoid running the engine at idle speed for more than 20 minutes.
(c) Avoid spark jump test.
(1) Perform spark jump test only when absolutely necessary. Perform this test as rapidly as possible.
(2) While testing, never race the engine.
(d) Avoid prolonged engine compression measurement.
Engine compression tests must be done as rapidly as possible.
(e) Do not run engine when fuel tank is nearly empty.
This may cause the engine to misfire and create an extra load on the converter.
(f) Avoid coasting with ignition turned off.
(g) Do not dispose of used catalyst along with parts contaminated with gasoline or oil.
3. IF VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
For vehicles with mobile communication systems such as two-way radios and cellular telephones, observe
the following precautions.
(1) Install the antenna as far as possible away from the ECU and sensors of the vehicle's electronic
system.
(2) Install the antenna feeder at least 20 cm (7.87 in.) away from the ECU and sensors of the ve-
hicle's electronic systems. For details about ECU and sensors locations, refer to the section on
the applicable component.
(3) Avoid winding the antenna feeder together with other wiring as much as possible, and also avoid
running the antenna feeder parallel with other wire harnesses.
(4) Check that the antenna and feeder are correctly adjusted.
(5) Do not install powerful mobile communications system.
4. FOR USING OBD II SCAN TOOL OR TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER
CAUTION:
Observe the following items for safety reasons:

Before using the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester, the OBD II scan tool's instruc-
tion book or TOYOTA hand-held tester's operator manual should be read thoroughly.

Be sure to route all cables securely when driving with the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-
held tester connected to the vehicle. (i.e. Keep cables away from feet, pedals, steering wheel
and shift lever.)

Two persons are required when test driving with the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held
tester, one person to drive the vehicle and the other person to operate the OBD II scan tool or
TOYOTA hand-held tester.

5. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH TRACTION CON-
TROL (TRAC) & VEHICLE SKID CONTROL (VSC) SYS-
TEM
NOTICE:

When replacing the steering angle sensor or ECU, or
when adjusting the front wheel alignment or steering
wheel center point in accordance with the removing
and installing or replacing the suspension, axle, or
steering parts, make sure to perform the steering
angle sensor zero point calibration (See page
DI-252).

Do not remove or install the VSC related parts unless
necessary. Otherwise, there is a possibility that the
setting of the VSC to be affected.

When working on the VSC related operation, make
sure to check that the preparations before and after
work are completed according to the following
instruction.

When using a drum tester such as a speedometer tes-
ter or chassis dynamometer, etc., or jacking up the
front wheels and driving the wheels, always push in
the TRAC & VSC cut (ºVSC OFFº) switch and turn the
TRAC & VSC system OFF.
(a) Press the VSC OFF switch.
(b) Check that the VSC OFF indicator light comes ON.
HINT:
The VSC OFF indicator light should be always OFF when the
engine is restarted.
(c) Begin measurements.
(d) Press the VSC OFF switch again to change the TRAC &
VSC system to operational condition and check that the
VSC OFF indicator light goes off.
HINT:

The SLIP indicator light blinks when the TRAC system is
operational.

The SLIP indicator light blinks and the VSC buzzer
sounds when the VSC system is operational.

(k) Care must be taken when jacking up and supporting the
vehicle. Be sure to lift and support the vehicle at the prop-
er locations (See page IN-8).
Cancel the parking brake on the level place and
shift the transmission in Neutral (or N position).
When jacking up the front wheels of the vehicle at
first place stoppers behind the rear wheels.
When jacking up the rear wheels of the vehicle at
first place stoppers before the front wheels.
When either the front or rear wheels only should be
jacked up, set rigid racks and place stoppers in front
and behind the other wheels on the ground.
After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to support it
on rigid racks . It is extremely dangerous to do any
work on a vehicle raised on a jack alone, even for
a small job that can be finished quickly.
(l) Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to the
following parts:
(1) Do not open the cover or case of the ECU unless
absolutely necessary. (If the IC terminals are
touched, the IC may be destroyed by static electric-
ity.)
(2) To disconnect vacuum hoses, pull off the end, not
the middle of the hose.
(3) To pull apart electrical connectors, pull on the con-
nector itself, not the wires.
(4) Be careful not to drop electrical components, such
as sensors or relays. If they are dropped on a hard
floor, they should be replaced and not reused.
(5) When steam cleaning an engine, protect the elec-
tronic components, air filter and emission-related
components from water.
(6) Never use an impact wrench to remove or install
temperature switches or temperature sensors.
