SRS
NOTICE: When inspecting or repairing the SRS, perform the operation in accordance with the following precautionary
instructions and the procedure and precautions in the Repair Manual for the applicable model year.

Malfunction symptoms of the SRS are difficult to confirm, so the DTCs become the most important source of information
when troubleshooting. When troubleshooting the SRS, always inspect the DTCs before disconnecting the battery.

Work must be started after 90 seconds from when the ignition switch is turned to the ºLOCKº position and the
negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery.
(The SRS is equipped with a back±up power source so that if work is started within 90 seconds from
disconnecting the negative (±) terminal cable of the battery, the SRS may be deployed.)

When the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, the memory of the clock and audio system will be
canceled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memorized in the audio memory system. When work is
finished, reset the audio systems as they were before and adjust the clock. To avoid erasing the memory in each
memory system, never use a back±up power supply from outside the vehicle.

Before repairs, remove the airbag sensor if shocks are likely to be applied to the sensor during repairs.

Do not expose the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, side airbag assembly, seat belt pretensioner,
airbag sensor assembly or side airbag sensor directly to hot air or flames.

Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS does not deploy, the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag
assembly, side airbag assembly, seat belt pretensioner, airbag sensor assembly and side airbag sensor assembly
should be inspected.

Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When replacing parts, replace them with new parts.

Never disassemble and repair the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, side airbag assembly, seat belt
pretensioner, airbag sensor assembly or side airbag sensor assembly in order to reuse it.

If the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, side airbag assembly, seat belt pretensioner, airbag sensor
assembly or side airbag sensor assembly has been dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or other defects in the case,
bracket or connector, replace them with new ones.

Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 kW/V minimum) for troubleshooting the system's electrical circuits.

Information labels are attached to the periphery of the SRS components. Follow the instructions on the notices.

After work on the SRS is completed, perform the SRS warning light check.

If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system, refer to the precaution in the IN section of the Repair
Manual.

4 Features of the 1NZ-FXE engine
1. Highly efficient and high expansion ratio gasoline engine
Adoption of a super fuel-efficient engine developed for use with THS. Its high expansion ratio cycle is achieved by applying the
Atkinson cycle*1 which obtains high thermal efficiency.
2. Reduction in frictional loss
The maximum engine speed is set at 4,500 rpm to reduce frictional resistance, thereby producing a highly efficient low-speed
engine.

An offset crankshaft with 12 mm deviation from the center axis of the cylinder bore is utilized to reduce frictional resistance
of the piston.

Frictional resistance is reduced through the use of low tension valve springs and piston rings.

Lightweight design has been adopted for reciprocating engine parts.
The above measures for reducing frictional loss contribute to improved fuel economy.
3. VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing -intelligent)
The timing of the opening and closing of the intake valves is controlled by the computer according to driving conditions, such
as engine speed and level of acceleration. Thus, smooth intake and exhaust are achieved to greatly improve torque in the low
and medium speed zones. This also contributes to better fuel economy and purification of exhaust gas. Then the VVT-i function
is used to reduce vibration when the engine starts.
4. Compact, lightweight, and low emission
Adoption of an aluminum cylinder block and compact design of parts. And, by positioning the catalytic converter near the engine
for a backwards exhaust layout, we have been able to reduce emissions when the engine is cold started.
*1 : Atkinson Cycle: Proposed by an English engineer named James Atkinson, this thermal cycle enables the compression stroke
and the expansion stroke of the mechanism to be set independently of each other.
Suspension
MacPherson strut type suspension with L-shape
lower arms has been adopted in the front and
torsion beam with toe control link suspension
in the rear. Also, each component part is opti-
mally located and tuned for both excellent con-
trollability and enhanced riding comfort.
EMPS (Electric Motor-assisted Power Steering)
System
Vehicle speed sensing type electric motor-assisted power steering is fitted as standard. Unlike conventional
hydraulic power steering, EMPS does not depend on an engine for its power source, providing a steering feel
in no way inferior to conventional steering when the engine has stopped. Thus it is suitable for the HV system.
Other merits include improved fuel economy through energy conservation, lighter weight, and no need to fill
the power steering fluid.

DESCRIPTION
A vehicle-speed sensing type EMPS (Electric Motor-assisted Power Steering) has been adopted. The
EMPS uses the EMPS ECU to control a DC motor that is mounted on the steering gear in accordance with
the signals received from various sensors to provide power assist to the steering effort.
A rack and pinion type steering gear and a stepless tilt steering have been adopted.
The steering column has adopted an energy absorbing mechanism that uses energy absorbing plate.

EMPS (Electric Motor-assisted Power Steering)
1. General
In accordance with sensor information such as that provided by the rear wheel speed sensors, the torque sen-
sor that is mounted on the steering gear, and the EMPS ECU determines the direction and the force of the
power assist and actuates the DC motor that is mounted on the steering gear to provide power assist to the
steering effort.
The EMPS in the Prius the following features:
This system can provide power assist even when the engine is stopped.
This system offers excellent fuel economy characteristics because power assist is provided by the DC mo-
tor that is mounted on the steering gear, and this motor consumes energy only when power assist is re-
quired.
Unlike the conventional hydraulic power steering system, this system excels in serviceability because it
does not require pipes or the power steering fluid.
