Toyota — IN-009 Precaution For All Of Vehicles

Brought to you by BirfMark − INTRODUCTION FOR ALL OF VEHICLES IN−11 (d) STEERING WHEEL PAD (with Airbag) (1) When removing the steering wheel pad or handling a new steering wheel pad, it should be placed with the pad top surface facing up. Storing the pad with its metallic surface facing up- ward may lead to a serious accident if the airbag in- flates for some reason. In addition do not store a steering wheel pad on top of another one. (2) Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib. (This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very dangerous.) (3) Grease should not be applied to the steering wheel pad and the pad should not be cleaned with deter- gents of any kind.

(4) Store the steering wheel pad where the ambient temperature remains below 93 ° C (200 ° F), without high humidity and away from electrical noise. (5) When using electric welding, first disconnect the air- bag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) under the steering column near the combination switch con- nector before starting work. (6) When disposing of a vehicle or the steering wheel pad alone, the airbag should be deployed using an SST before disposal (See page RS−11 ). Perform the operation in a safe place away from electrical noise. Example: CORRECT WRONG x N01560 Z13953 Example: R05643 R06953 R06952 Z13950 1996 LAND CRUISER (RM451U) 11 Author : Date:
