FRONT SEAT AIRBAG ASSY LH
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 front seat ai\
rbag 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 front seat airbag assy LH that
has 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 airbag assy.
The front seat 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
front seat airbag assy LH with the deployed airbag.
Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.
Do not apply water, etc. to the front seat airbag assy
LH with the deployed airbag.
1. DISPOSE OF FRONT SEAT AIRBAG 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±19).

(b)Remove the front seat assy LH (See page 72±16).
(c) Disconnect the front seat airbag connector.
NOTICE:
When handling the airbag connector, take care not to
damage the airbag wire harness.
(d) Install the SST(s). (1) Connect the connectors of the SST(s) to the front
seat airbag connector.
SST 09082±00700, 09082±00750
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST(s) connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.
(2) Move the SST(s) at least 10 m (33 ft) away from thefront of the vehicle.
(3) Close all the doors and windows of the vehicle.
NOTICE:
Take care not to damage the SST(s) wire harness. (4) Connect the red clip of the SST(s) to the batterypositive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST(s)
to the battery negative (±) terminal.
(e) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Check that no one is inside the vehicle or within a10 m (33 ft) radius of the vehicle.
(2) Press the activation switch in the SST(s) and deploy the airbag.
HINT:
The airbag is deploys as the LED of the SST(s) activation switch
comes on.
(f) Dispose the front seat airbag assy LH.
CAUTION:
The front seat 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
front seat airbag assy LH with the deployed airbag.
When moving the vehicle for scrapping which has the
front seat airbag assy LH with the deployed airbag,
use gloves and safety glasses.
Do not apply water, etc. to the front seat airbag assy
LH with the deployed airbag.
Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.

2. DISPOSE OF FRONT SEAT AIRBAG ASSY LH (WHEN
DISPOSING OF AIRBAG ASSEMBLY DEPLOYMENT
METHOD)
NOTICE:
When disposing of the front seat airbag assy LH only,
never use the customer's vehicle to deploy the air-
bag.
Be sure to follow the procedure detailed below when
deploying the airbag.
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±19).
(b) Remove the front seat airbag assy LH. (1)Remove the front seat assy LH (See page 72±16).
(2) Remove the 2 nuts and the front seat airbag assy LH from the seatback assembly.
CAUTION:
When removing the front seat airbag assy LH, work
must be started 90 seconds after the ignition switch
is turned to the ºLOCKº position and the negative (±)
terminal cable is disconnected from the battery.
When storing the front seat airbag assy LH, keep the
upper surface of the airbag deployment side facing
upward.
(c) Using a service±purpose wire harness for the vehicle, tie down the front seat airbag assy LH to the tire.
Wire harness: Stripped wire harness section
1.25 mm
2 or more (0.0019 in2 or more)
HINT:
To calculate the square of the stripped wire harness section:
Square = 3.14 x (Diameter)
2 divided by 4
CAUTION:
If a wire harness which is too thin or an alternative object
is used to tie down the front seat airbag assy LH, it may be
snapped by the shock when the airbag is deployed. This is
highly dangerous. Always use a wire harness for vehicle
use which has a diameter at least 1.25 mm
2 (0.0019 in2).

(1) Install the 2 nuts in the front seat airbag assy LH.
(2) Wind the wire harness around the stud bolts of the
front seat airbag assy LH as shown in the illustra-
tion.
(3) Position the front seat airbag assy LH inside the tire
with the airbag deployment direction facing inside.
Tire size: Must exceed the following dimensions
Width: 185 mm (7.28 in.)
Inner diameter: 360 mm (14.17 in.)
CAUTION:
Make sure the wire harness is tight. It is highly dan-
gerous when looseness in the wire harness results in
the front seat airbag assy LH coming free due to the
shock from the airbag deployment.
Always tie down the front seat airbag assy LH with the
airbag deployment direction facing inside the tire.
NOTICE:
The tire will be marked by the airbag deployment, so use a
redundant tire.
(d) Install the SST(s).
Connect the connector of SST(s) to the front seat airbag
assy LH connect.

(e) Place the tires.
(1) Place at least 2 tires under the tire to which the front
seat airbag assy LH is tied.
(2) Place at least 2 tires over the tire to which the front
seat airbag assy LH is tied. The top tire should have
the disc wheel installed.
NOTICE:
Do not place the SST(s) connector under the tire because
the SST(s) connector could be damaged.
(3) Tie the tires together with 2 wire harnesses.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the wire harness is tight. It is highly danger-
ous when looseness in the wire harness results in the tires
coming free due to the shock from the airbag deployment.
HINT:
Place the SST(s) connector and the wire harness inside tires.
Secure at least 1 m (3 ft) of slack for the wire harness.
(f) Install the SST(s).
Connect the connector of the SST(s).
SST 09082±00700
NOTICE:
To avoid damaging the SST(s) connector and wire harness,
do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock. Also, se-
cure some slack for the SST(s) wire harness inside the tire.
(g) Deploy the airbag.
(1) Connect the red clip of the SST(s) to the battery
positive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST(s)
to the battery negative (±) terminal.
(2) Check that no one is within a 10 m (33 ft) radius of
the tire to which the front seat airbag assy LH is tied.
(3) Press the activation switch of the SST(s) and
deploy the airbag.
