affect electronic systems such as the multiport fuel injection system/sequen-
tial multiport fuel injection system, anti-lock brake system, SRS airbag sys-
tem and seat belt pretensioner system, be sure to check with your Toyota
dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions regarding installa-
tion.

explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Toyota
dealer before you scrap your vehicle.

See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.

nents may include airbag, seat belt pretensioners, and wireless remote con-
trol batteries.
