FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY DISPOSAL

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

Before performing pre-disposal deployment of any SRS component, review and closely follow all applicable environmental and hazardous material regulations. Pre-disposal deployment may be considered hazardous material treatment.

PROCEDURE

PRECAUTION
CAUTION:
- Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front seat outer belt assembly with a deployed pretensioner.
- Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.
- Do not apply water, etc. to a front seat outer belt assembly with a deployed pretensioner.
- When deploying a seat belt pretensioner, always use the specified SST (SRS airbag deployment tool). Perform the operation in a place away from electrical interference.
- Never dispose of a front seat outer belt assembly with a pretensioner that has not been deployed.
- The front seat outer belt assembly produces an exploding sound when the pretensioner deploys, so perform the operation outdoors where it will not disturb local residents.
- When deploying a seat belt pretensioner, perform the operation at least 10 m (32.8 ft.) away from the vehicle.
Tech Tips

When scrapping vehicles equipped with a seat belt pretensioner or disposing of a front seat outer belt assembly (with a seat belt pretensioner), always deploy the seat belt pretensioner first in accordance with the procedure described below. If any abnormality occurs during deployment of the seat belt pretensioner, contact the service dept. of the distributor.

DISPOSE OF FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY (When Installed in Vehicle)

Note

When disposing of a front seat outer belt assembly with a pretensioner, never deploy the pretensioner in the customer's vehicle.
Be sure to observe the following procedure when deploying a seat belt pretensioner.

Check the function of SST.

SST

09082-00700

CAUTION:

When deploying a seat belt pretensioner, always use the specified SST.
1. *a Battery
  
  Connect the red clip of SST to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black clip to the negative (-) battery terminal.
  
  CAUTION:
  
  Do not connect the yellow connector to the seat belt pretensioner.
2. Press the SST activation switch and check that the LED of the SST activation switch illuminates.
  
  CAUTION:
  
  If the LED is illuminated when the activation switch is not being pressed, SST may be malfunctioning. Replace SST.

Tech Tips

Tape the screwdriver tip before use.

Disconnect the connector.
Connect SST.
1. After connecting the following SST to each other, connect them to the seat belt pretensioner.
  
  SST
  
  09082-00700
  
  09082-00802 ( 09082-10801, 09082-20801 )
  
  Note
  
  To avoid damaging the SST connector or wire harness, do not lock the secondary lock of the pretensioner connector.
2. *a 10 m (32.8 ft.) or more
  
  Move SST at least 10 m (32.8 ft.) away from the front side window of the vehicle.
3. Maintaining sufficient clearance for the SST wire harness in the front side window, close all doors and windows of the vehicle.
  
  Note
  
  Take care not to damage the SST wire harness.
Deploy the seat belt pretensioner.
1. Check that no one is inside the vehicle or within a 10 m (32.8 ft.) radius of the vehicle.
2. Connect the red clip of SST to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black clip to the negative (-) battery terminal.
3. Press the SST activation switch to deploy the seat belt pretensioner.
  
  Tech Tips
  
  The seat belt pretensioner will deploy at the same time the LED of SST illuminates.
Dispose of the front seat outer belt assembly.
1. Remove the front seat outer belt assembly and SST.
2. Place the front seat outer belt assembly in a plastic bag, tie the end tightly, and dispose of it in the same way as other general parts.
  CAUTION:
  - The front seat outer belt assembly becomes extremely hot when the pretensioner is deployed, so do not touch it for at least 30 minutes after deployment.
  - Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front seat outer belt assembly with a deployed pretensioner.
  - Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.
  - Do not apply water, etc. to a front seat outer belt assembly with a deployed pretensioner.
  Tech Tips
  
  When scrapping a vehicle, deploy the seat belt pretensioner, and then scrap the vehicle with the front seat outer belt assembly installed.

2. *a Cut
  
  *b 100 mm (3.94 in.)
  
  Wind the seat belt webbing with the retractor.
3. When the seat belt webbing is sufficiently wound, cut the seat belt webbing approximately 100 mm (3.94 in.) from the retractor, as shown in the illustration.
  
  Tech Tips
  
  The retractor resistance increases in correlation with how much the seat belt webbing is wound.
4. Check the function of SST.
