The seat belt pretensioner system con-
sists mainly of the following components
and their locations are shown in the il-
lustration.1. Front airbag sensors
2. Passenger airbag on −off indicator light
3. Front passenger occupant classification ECU
4. Load sensor
5. Seat belt pretensioner assemblies
6. Front passenger ’s seat belt buckle switch
7. Airbag sensor assembly 8. SRS warning light
The seat belt pretensioners are controlled
by the airbag sensor assembly. The airbag
sensor assembly consists of a safing sen-
sor and airbag sensor.
When the seat belt pretensioners are acti-
vated, an operating noise may be heard
and a small amount of non −toxic gas may
be released. This does not indicate that
a fire is occurring. This gas is normally
harmless.
Once the seat belt pretensioners have
been activated, the seat belt retractors
remain locked.
CAUTION
Do not modify, remove, strike or
open the seat belt pretensioner as-
semblies, airbag sensor or sur-
rounding area or wiring. Failure to
follow these instructions may pre-
vent the seat belt pretensioners
from activating correctly, cause sud-
den operation of the system or dis-
able the system, which could result
in death or serious injury. Consult
your Toyota dealer about any repair
and modification.
Do not modify or change the sus-
pension system. Such changes may
cause the driver airbag, front pas-
senger airbag, seat belt pretension-
ers and curtain shield airbags to
inflate accidentally, which could re-
sult in death or serious injury.
Do not use tires or wheels other
than the manufacturer ’s recom-
mended size. Such a use may cause
the driver airbag, front passenger
airbag, seat belt pretensioners and
curtain shield airbags to inflate ac-
cidentally, which could result in
death or serious injury. For details,
see “Checking and replacing tires”
on page 551 in Section 7 2.
