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 below. 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 residents.

• When deploying the airbag, always use the specified SST (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 curtain 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 INSTALLED IN VEHICLE)

HINT: Prepare a battery as the power source to deploy the airbag.

1. Check the function of the SST

2. Precaution

3. Disconnect the battery negative terminal.

4. Remove the rear door scuff plate LH

5. Remove the rear door opening trim weatherstrip LH

6. Remove the rear seat cushion assy

7. Remove the rear side seat back LH

8. Remove the roof side inner garnish LH

i. Install the SST.

1. Disconnect the connector from the curtain shield airbag assy LH.

NOTICE: When handling the airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.

2. TMC Made: After connecting the SST below to each other, connect them to the curtain shield airbag assy LH.

SST 09082−00700, 09082−00802 (09082−10801, 09082−20801)

NOTICE: To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness, do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.

3. TMMK Made: Connect the connector of the SST to the curtain shield airbag assy LH (TMMK Made).

SST 09082−00700, 09082−00760

NOTICE: To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness, do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock.

4. Move the SST at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the vehicle rear side window.

5. Maintaining enough clearance for the SST wire harness in the rear side window, close all doors and windows of the vehicle.

NOTICE: Take care not to damage the SST wire harness.

6. Connect the red clip of the SST to the battery positive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST to the negative (−) terminal.

j. Deploy the airbag.

1. Check that no one is inside the vehicle or within a 10 m (33 ft) radius of the vehicle.

2. Press the activation switch of the SST and deploy the airbag.

HINT: The airbag is deployed as the LED of the SST activation switch comes on.

CAUTION:

• 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 curtain 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.

2. DISPOSE OF CURTAIN SHIELD AIR BAG ASSY LH (WHEN NOT INSTALLED IN VEHICLE)

NOTICE:

• When disposing of the curtain shield airbag assy LH, never use the customer’s vehicle to deploy the airbag.

• 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

b. Remove the curtain shield airbag assy LH

CAUTION: When removing the curtain shield airbag assy LH, work must be started 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the ”LOCK” position and the negative (−) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery.

c. Cut off the deployment section of the curtain shield airbag assy LH.

d. Using a service−purpose wire harness for the vehicle, tie down the curtain shield airbag assy LH to the tire.

Wire harness: Stripped wire harness section 1.25 mm2 or more (0.0019 in.2 or more)

CAUTION: If a wire harness which is too thin or an alternative object is used to tie down the curtain shield airbag assy LH, it may be snapped by the shock when the airbag is deployed. Always use a wire harness for vehicle use which has a section of at least 1.25 mm2 (0.0019 in.2).

HINT:

• To calculate the square of the stripped wire harness section: Square = 3.14 x (Diameter)2 divided by 4

• Place the curtain shield airbag assy LH inside the tire as shown in the illustration.

  Tire size: Must exceed the following dimensions Width: 185 mm (7.28 in.) Inner diameter: 360 mm (14.17 in.)

CAUTION: Make sure that the wire harness is tight. It is highly dangerous when looseness in the wire harness results in the curtain shield airbag assy LH coming free due to the shock from the airbag deployment.

NOTICE: The tire will be marked by the airbag deployment, so use a redundant tire.

e. Install the SST.

1. TMC Made: After connecting the SST below to each other, connect them to the curtain shield airbag assy LH.

   SST 09082−00802 (09082−10801, 09082−20801)

2. TMMK Made: Connect the connector of the SST to the curtain shield airbag assy LH.

   SST 09082−00760

f. Place the tires.

CAUTION: Do not place the deployment direction of the curtain shield airbag assy LH facing toward the ground.

1. Place at least 2 tires under the tire to which the curtain shield airbag assy LH is tied.

2. Place at least 2 tires over the tire to which the curtain shield airbag assy LH is tied. The top tire should have the disc wheel installed.

NOTICE: Do not place the SST connector under the tire because the SST 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 dangerous when looseness in the wire harness results in the tires coming free due to the shock from the airbag deployment.

g. Install the SST.

Connect the connector of the SST.

SST 09082−00700

NOTICE: To avoid damaging the SST connector and wire harness, do not lock the secondary lock of the twin lock. Also, secure some slack for the SST wire harness inside the tire.

h. Deploy the airbag.

1. Connect the red clip of the SST to the battery positive (+) terminal and the black clip of the SST to the battery negative (−) terminal.

2. Check that no one is within a 10 m (33 ft) radius of the tire to which the curtain shield airbag assy LH is tied.

3. Press the activation switch of the SST and deploy the airbag.

HINT: The airbag is deployed as the LED of the SST activation switch comes on.

i. Dispose of the curtain shield airbag assy LH.

CAUTION:

• 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 curtain shield airbag assy LH with the deployed airbag.

• Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.

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

1. Remove the curtain shield airbag assy LH from the tire.

2. Place the curtain shield airbag assy LH in a plastic bag, tie it tightly and dispose of it in the same way as for other general parts disposal.
