DISPOSAL
HINT:

Disposal procedure of the RH side is the same as that for the LH side.

When scrapping a vehicle equipped with SRS or disposing of the curtain shield airbag assy LH, be sure
to deploy the airbag first in accordance with the procedure described belo\
w. If any abnormality occurs
with the airbag deployment, contact the SERVICE DEPT. of TOYOTA MOTOR SALES, U.S.A., INC.
CAUTION:

Never dispose of the curtain shield airbag assy LH
that has an undeployed airbag.

The airbag produces an exploding sound when it is
deployed, so perform the operation outdoors and
where it will not create a nuisance to nearby resi-
dents.

When deploying the airbag, always use the specified
SST(s) (SRS Airbag Deployment Tool). Perform the
operation in a place away from electrical noise.

When deploying the airbag, perform the operation at
least 10 m (33 ft) away from the curtain shield airbag
assy LH.

The curtain shield airbag assy LH is extremely hot
when the airbag is deployed, so do not touch it for at
least 30 minutes after deployment.

Use gloves and safety glasses when handling the cur-
tain shield airbag assy LH with the deployed airbag.

Do not apply water, etc. to the curtain shield airbag
assy LH with the deployed airbag.

Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
1. DISPOSE OF CURTAIN SHIELD AIR BAG ASSY LH (WHEN SCRAPPING VEHICLE DEPLOYMENT
METHOD)
HINT:
Prepare a battery as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a)Check the function of the SST(s) (See step 1±(a) on page
60±17).
(b) Disconnect the airbag connector.
(1) Sedan Models:Remove the roof headlining assy (See page
76±36).
(2) Liftback Models: Remove the roof headlining assy (See page
76±45).
(3) Wagon Models: Remove the roof headlining assy (See page
