SEAT BELT WITH PRE-TENSIONER CHECK
If any part is found to be faulty during the inspection, it must
be replaced with a new one.
Dispose of the old one according to the specified procedure.
Caution
Never attempt to measure the circuit resistance of the
seat belt pre-tensioner even if you are using the specified
tester. If the circuit resistance is measured with a tester,
the seat belt pre-tensioner may accidentally operate,
which could result in serious personal injury.

deformation.

PROCEDURES

Before disposing of a vehicle which is equipped
with air bags or seat belts with pre-tensioner, or
when disposing of the air bags or seat belt
pre-tensioner themselves, the following procedures
must be used to deploy the air bags or operate
the seat belt pre-tensioners before disposal.

BELT PRE-TENSIONER DISPOSAL
Caution
1.
If the vehicle is to be scrapped or otherwise disposed
of, deploy the air bags and operate the seat belt
pre-tensioners inside the vehicle. If the vehicle will
continue to be operated and only the air bag modules
and seat belt pre-tensioner are to be disposed of,
deploy the air bags and operate the seat belt
pre-tensioners outside the vehicle.
2. Since a large amount of smoke is produced when
the air bag are deployed or the seat belt pre-tensioner
is
operated, avoid residential areas whenever
possible.
3. Since there is a loud noise when the air bags are
deployed and when the seat belt pre-tensioners are
operated, avoid residential areas whenever possible.
If anyone is nearby, give warning of the impending
noise.
