SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
1.
Items to review when servicing SRS
(1)
Be sure to read Service Manual GROUP 52B,
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). For safe
operation, please follow the directions and heed
all warnings.
(2)
Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the
battery cable before doing any further work. The
SRS system is designed to retain enough
voltage to deploy the air bag even after the
battery has been disconnected. Serious injury
may result from unintended air bag deployment
if work is done on the SRS system immediately
after the battery cable is disconnected.
(3)
Warning labels must be heeded when servicing
or handling SRS components.
(4)
Always use the designated special tools and test
equipment.
(5)
Store components removed from the SRS in a
clean and dry place. The air bag module should
be stored on a flat surface and placed so that the
pad surface is facing upward.
(6)
Never attempt to disassemble or repair the SRS
components (SRS-ECU, air bag module and
clock spring). If there is a defect, replace the
defective part.
(7)
Whenever you finish servicing the SRS, check
the SRS warning light operation to make sure
that the system functions properly.
(8)
Be sure to deploy the air bag before disposing
of the air bag module or disposing of a vehicle
equipped with an air bag.
2.
Observe the following when carrying out operations
on places where SRS components are installed,
including operations not directly related to the SRS
air bag.
(1)
When removing or installing parts, do not allow
any impact or shock to occur to the SRS
components.
(2)
If heat damage may occur during paint work,
remove the SRS-ECU, the air bag module, clock
spring, the front impact sensor, the side impact
sensor, and the seat belt pre-tensioner.
｠
SRS-ECU, air bag module, clock spring, front
impact sensor, the side impact sensor: 93 °C
(200 °F) or more
｠
Seat belt pre-tensioner: 90 °C (194 °F) or
more
SECURING THE VEHICLE
If the vehicle is raised on a jack, be sure to always support it with
jack stands positioned at the specified points.
CLEARING THE AREA OF FLAMMABLE MATERIALS
Because of the presence of many various kinds of flammable
materials, organic solvents, etc., in the work area, there is
always the possibility of a fire or explosion. It is, therefore,
important to keep the work area as clear as possible of such
dangerous materials.
HANDLING ELECTRONIC PARTS AND SEMICONDUCTORS
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain
lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS AFTER
