Knee Airbag Assembly (For Hatchback) -- Disposal

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.

HINT:

When scrapping a vehicle equipped with an SRS or disposing of the lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly, 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:

An airbag or pretensioner may be activated by static electricity. To prevent this, be sure to touch a metal surface with bare hands to discharge static electricity before performing this procedure.
Never dispose of a lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly that has an undeployed airbag.
The airbag emits 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 lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly.
The lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly becomes 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 a lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly with a deployed airbag.
Do not apply water, etc. to a lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly with a deployed airbag.
Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.

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 SST activation switch and deploy the airbag.
  CAUTION:
  1. Make sure that no one is near the vehicle when deploying the airbag.
  2. The lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly becomes extremely hot when the airbag is deployed, so do not touch it for at least 30 minutes after deployment.
  3. Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly which has been deployed.
  4. Do not apply water, etc. to a lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly which has been deployed.
  5. Always wash your hands with water after completing the operation.
  HINT:
  The airbag is deployed as the LED on the SST activation switch illuminates.

Measurement
A
1.25 mm² or more (0.00192 in.² or more)
CAUTION:
Do not use a wire harness that is too thin or any other object to tie the lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly because it may snap due to the shock when the airbag is deployed. Always use a wire harness for vehicle use with a cross section of at least 1.25 mm² (0.0019 in.²).
HINT:
To calculate the area of the stripped wire harness cross section:
Area = 3.14 x (Diameter)² divided by 4
1. Position the lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly inside the tire, as shown in the illustration.
  
  Tire size:

  360 mm (14.17 in.)
  B
  185 mm (7.28 in.)
  CAUTION:
  1. Make sure that the wire harnesses are tight. If there is any slack in the wire harnesses, the lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly may become loose due to the shock when the airbag is deployed.
  2. Always tie the lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly with the airbag deployment side facing inside the tire.
  NOTICE:
  The tire will be marked by the airbag deployment, so use a waste tire.

Tire (2 or more)
1. Place at least 2 tires under the tire to which the lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly is tied.
2. Place at least 2 tires over the tire to which the lower No. 1 instrument panel airbag assembly is tied. A disc wheel should be installed onto the top tire.
  NOTICE:
  1. Do not place SST connector under the tire because it could be damaged.
  2. As the disc wheel will be marked by the airbag deployment, use a waste disc wheel.
  3. As the tires will be marked by the airbag deployment, use waste tires.
3. Tie the tires together with 2 wire harnesses.
  CAUTION:
  Make sure that the wire harnesses are tight. It is highly dangerous when a loose wire harness results in the tires coming free due to the shock when the airbag is deployed.
