FRONT SEAT OUTER BELT ASSEMBLY DISPOSAL

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tech Tips

When scrapping vehicles equipped with a seat belt pretensioner or disposing of a seat belt (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 DEPARTMENT of the distributor.

PROCEDURE


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

    CAUTION:


    • Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front seat outer belt 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 with a deployed pretensioner.

    • When deploying the seat belt pretensioner, always use the specified SST (SRS airbag deployment tool). Perform the operation in a place away from electrical interference.

    Note


    • When disposing of a front seat outer belt with a pretensioner, never deploy the pretensioner in the customer's vehicle.

    • Never dispose of a front seat outer belt assembly with a pretensioner that has not been deployed.

    • The seat belt pretensioner produces an exploding sound when it deploys, so perform the operation outdoors where it will not disturb local residents.

    • When deploying a front seat outer belt (with a seat belt pretensioner), perform the operation at least 10 m (33 ft.) away from the front seat outer belt.

    • Be sure to follow the procedure listed below when deploying the seat belt pretensioner.


    1. B002KSLN01

      Check the function of SST.

      SST
      09082-00700

      CAUTION:

      When deploying the seat belt pretensioner, always use the specified SST.


      1. B002JX3C11
        *1 Battery

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

        Tech Tips

        At this time, do not connect the yellow connector. It will be connected to the seat belt pretensioner in a later step.

      2. B002K6HN01

        Press the SST deployment switch and check that the LED of the SST deployment switch illuminates.

        CAUTION:

        If the LED is illuminated when the deployment switch is not pressed, SST may be malfunctioning. In this case, do not use the malfunctioning SST.

    2. Disconnect the front seat outer belt pretensioner connector.


      1. Disconnect the cable from the auxiliary negative (-) battery terminal.

        CAUTION:

        Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

      2. Remove the lower center pillar garnish.

      1. Remove the front seat outer belt assembly and SST.

      2. Place the front seat outer belt 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 becomes very hot when the front seat outer belt pretensioner is deployed, so leave it untouched for at least 30 minutes after it has been deployed.

        • Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front seat outer belt with a pretensioner that has been deployed.

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