DISPOSAL
HINT:
When scrapping vehicle equipped with a SRS or disposing of
a front seat outer belt (with seat belt pretensioner), always first
deploy the airbag in accordance with the procedure given in RS
section or activate the seat belt pretensioner. If any abnormality
occurs with the airbag deployment or seat belt pretensioner ac-
tivation, contact the SERVICE DEP. of the TOYOTA MOTOR
SALES, U.S.A. INC. When disposing of a front seat outer belt
(with seat belt pretensioner) activated in a collision, follow the
same procedure given in step 1±(d) in ºDISPOSALº.
CAUTION:

Never dispose of front seat outer belt which has inac-
tivated pretensioner.

The seat belt pretensioner produces a sizeable ex-
ploding sound when it activates, so perform the op-
eration out±of±door and where it will not create a nui-
sance to nearby residents.

When activating the seat belt pretensioner, always
use the specified SST. (SRS Airbag Deployment Tool)
Perform the operation in a place away from electrical
noise.
SST 09082±00700, 09082±00740

pretensioner), perform the operation at least
10 m (33 ft) away from the front seat outer belt.

Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front
seat outer belt with activated pretensioner.

9. SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
The SEQUOIA is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Re-
straint System) such as the driver, passenger, side, and curtain
shield airbags. Failure to carry out service operation in the cor-
rect sequence could cause the SRS to unexpectedly deploy
during servicing, possibly leading to a serious accident. Before
servicing (including removal or installation of parts, inspection
or replacement), be sure to read the precautionary notices in
the RS section.

Important information about your Toyota
Occupant restraint systems
Toyota encourages you and your family to take the time to
read Section 1±3 of this Owner 's Manual carefully. In
terms of helping you understand how you can receive the
maximum benefit of the occupant restraint systems this
vehicle provides, Section 1±3 of this Owner 's Manual is
the most important Section for you and your family to
read.
Section 1±3 describes the function and operation concern-
ing seats, seat belts, SRS airbags and child restraint sys-
tems of this vehicle and some potential hazards you
should be aware of. These systems work together along
with the overall structure of this vehicle in order to provide
occupant restraint in the event of a crash. The effect of
each system is enhanced when it is used properly and
together with other systems. No single occupant restraint
system can, by itself, provide you or your family with the
equal level of restraint which these systems can provide
when used together. That is why it is important for you and
your family to understand the purpose and proper use of
each of these systems and how they relate to each other.
The purpose of all occupant restraint systems is to help
reduce the possibility of death or serious injury in the
event of a collision. None of these systems, either individ-
ually or together, can ensure that there is no injury in the
event of collision. However, the more you know about
these systems and how to use them properly, the greater
your chances become of surviving an accident without
death or serious injury.
Seat belts provide the primary restraint to all occupants of
the vehicle, and every occupant of the vehicle should wear
seat belts properly at all times. Children should always be
secured in child restraint systems that are appropriate for
their age and size. SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
airbags are, as their names imply, designed to work with,
and be supplemental to, seat belts and are not substitutes
for them. SRS airbags can be very effective in reducing
the risk of head and chest injuries by preventing contact of
the head and chest with interior portions of the vehicle.
