PROCEDURE


  1. DISPOSE OF FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY (WHEN INSTALLED IN VEHICLE)

    Tech Tips

    Prepare a battery to activate the seat belt pretensioner.

        Note

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

      3. A000WSAE04
        *1 10 m or more

        Move SST at least 10 m (32.8 ft.) away from the front of the vehicle.

      4. Close all the doors and windows of the vehicle.

        Tech Tips

        Leave a gap in one of the windows for inserting SST wire harness.

        Note

        Take care not to damage SST wire harness.

      5. Connect SST's red clip to the auxiliary battery's positive (+) terminal and the black clip to the auxiliary battery's negative (-) terminal.

    5. Activate the seat belt pretensioner.


      1. Confirm that no one is inside the vehicle or within 10 m (32.8 ft.) of the vehicle.

      2. Press SST activation switch to activate the seat belt pretensioner.

        Tech Tips

        The seat belt pretensioner operates at the same time SST activation switch's LED illuminates.

    6. Dispose of the front seat outer belt (with the seat belt pretensioner).

      CAUTION:


      • Do not touch the front seat outer belt for at least 30 minutes after the seat belt pretensioner has been activated. It is very hot.

      • Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front seat outer belt whose pretensioner has been activated.

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

      • Do not apply water to a front seat outer belt that has an activated pretensioner.

      Tech Tips

      When scrapping a vehicle, activate the seat belt pretensioner, and then scrap the vehicle with the activated front seat outer belt installed.

  2. DISPOSE OF FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY (WHEN NOT INSTALLED IN VEHICLE)

    Note

    Be sure to follow the procedures listed below when activating the seat belt pretensioner.


    1. A000VCFE01
      *1 Cut Here
      *2 100 mm

      Remove the front seat outer belt Click here.


      1. Wind the seat belt with the retractor.

      2. When the seat belt is sufficiently wound, cut the seat belt approximately 100 mm (0.393 in.) from the retractor, as shown in the illustration.

        Tech Tips

        The seat belt is designed so that winding the seat belt before pretensioner activation will decrease the pulling power of the seat belt during pretensioner activation.
