INSPECTION
1. MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT
Vehicle height:
Tire sizeFront*1 mm (in.)Rear*2 mm (in.)
175/65R14191 (7.52)239 (9.41)
*1: Front measuring point
Measure the distance from the ground to the head center of the
front side lower suspension arm mounting bolt.
*
2: Rear measuring point
Measure the distance from the ground to the center of the rear
axle beam mounting bolt.
NOTICE:
Before inspecting the wheel alignment, adjust the vehicle
height to the specified value.
If the vehicle height is not the specified value, try to adjust it by
pushing down on or lifting the body.
2. INSTALL CAMBER±CASTER±KINGPIN GAUGE OR
POSITION VEHICLE ON WHEEL ALIGNMENT TES-
TER
Follow the specific instructions of the equipment manufacturer.
3. INSPECT CAMBER, CASTER AND STEERING AXIS
INCLINATION
Camber, caster and steering axis inclination:
Camber
Right±left error±0°26' ± 45' (±0.43° ± 0.75°)
45' (0.75°) or less
Caster
Right±left error1°02' ± 45' (1.03° ± 0.75°)
45' (0.75°) or less
Steering axis inclination
Right±left error9°52' ± 45' (9.87° ± 0.75°)
45' (0.75°) or less
If the caster and steering axis inclination are not within the spe-
cified values, after the camber has been correctly adjusted, re-
check the suspension parts for damaged and/or worn out parts.
4. ADJUST CAMBER
NOTICE:
After the camber has been adjusted, inspect the toe±in.
(a) Remove the front wheel.
(b) Remove the 2 nuts on the lower side of the shock absorb-
er.
If reusing the bolts and/or nuts, coat the threads of nuts with en-
gine oil.
(c) Clean the installation surfaces of the shock absorber and
the steering knuckle.
(d) Temporarily install the 2 nuts.

DISPOSAL
HINT:
When scrapping vehicle equipped with an SRS or disposing of
a steering wheel pad (with airbag), always first deploy the air-
bag in accordance with the procedure described below. If any
abnormality occurs with the airbag deployment, contact the
SERVICE DEPT. of TOYOTA MOTOR SALES, U.S.A., INC.
CAUTION:

Never dispose of a steering wheel pad which has an
undeployed airbag.

The airbag produces a sizeable exploding sound
when it deploys, so perform the operation out±of±
doors 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 op-
eration in a place away from electrical noise.
SST 09082±00700

When deploying an airbag, perform the operation at
least 10 m (33 ft) away from the steering wheel pad.

The steering wheel pad is very hot when the airbag is
deployed, so leave it alone for at least 30 minutes af-
ter deployment.

Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a steer-
ing wheel pad with the deployed airbag.

Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.

Do not apply water, etc. to a steering wheel pad with
the deployed airbag.

HINT:
Have a battery ready as the power source to deploy the airbag.

(d) Install the SST.
CAUTION:
Place the disc wheel on the level ground.
(1) Connect the connectors of the 2 SST to the steering
wheel pad connector.
SST 09082±00700, 09082±00760
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock. Also, se-
cure some slack for the SST wire harness inside the disc
wheel.
(2) Move the SST to at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the
steering wheel pad tied down on the disc wheel.
(e) Cover the steering wheel pad with a cardboard box or
tires.

Covering method using a cardboard box:
Cover the steering wheel pad with the cardboard
box and weight the cardboard box down in 4 places
with at least 190 N (20 kg, 44 lb).
Size of cardboard box:
Must exceed the following dimensions:
X = 460 mm (18.11 in.)
Y = 650 mm (25.59 in.)
NOTICE:

When dimension Y of the cardboard box exceeds the
diameter of the disc wheel with tire to which the steer-
ing wheel pad is tied, X should be the following size.
X = 460 mm (18.11 in.) + width of tire

If a cardboard box smaller than the specified size is
used, the cardboard box will be broken by the shock
from the airbag deployment.

Covering method using tires:
Place at least 3 tires without disc wheel on top of the
disc wheel with tire to which the steering wheel pad
is tied.
Tire size: Must exceed the following dimensions±
Width: 185 mm (7.87 in.)
Inner diameter: 360 mm (14.17 in.)
CAUTION:
Do not use tires with disc wheels.
NOTICE:
The tires may be marked by the airbag deployment, so use
the redundant tires.
(f) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Connect the SST red clip to the battery positive (+)
terminal and the black clip to the battery negative
(±) terminal.
(2) Check that no one is within 10 m (33 ft) area around
the disc wheel which the steering wheel pad is tied
to.
(3) Press the SST activation switch and deploy the air-
bag.
HINT:
The airbag deploys simultaneously as the LED of the SST ac-
tivation switch lights up.
(g) Dispose of the steering wheel pad (with airbag).
CAUTION:

The steering wheel pad is very hot when the airbag is
deployed, so leave it alone for at least 30 minutes af-
ter deployment.

Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a steer-
ing wheel pad with the deployed airbag.

Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.

Do not apply water, etc. to a steering wheel pad with
the deployed airbag.
(1) Remove the steering wheel pad from the disc
wheel.
(2) Place the steering wheel pad in a vinyl bag, tie the
end tightly and dispose of it in the same way as oth-
er general parts disposal.
