4 Runner 2WD L4-2.7L (2TR-FE) (2010)
The airbag is deployed as the LED of SST activation switch comes on.
3. DISPOSE OF LOWER NO. 2 INSTRUMENT PANEL AIRBAG ASSEMBLY (WHEN NOT INSTALLED IN VEHICLE)
NOTICE:
Be sure to follow the procedure detailed below when deploying the airbag.
HINT
Prepare a battery as the power source to deploy the airbag.
(a) Check the function of SST See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Diagnosis System.
(b) Remove the lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag See: Removal and Replacement/Knee Airbag Assembly (for Front Passenger
Side)/Removal.
CAUTION:
*
When removing the lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag, wait at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned off and the
cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal before starting work.
*
When storing the lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag, keep the airbag deployment side facing upward.
(c) Using a service-purpose wire harness for the vehicle, tie the lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag to a tire.
Cross-sectional area of stripped wire harness section:
1.25 mm2 (0.00192 in.2) or more
CAUTION:
If the wire harness is too thin or an alternative object is used to tie the lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag, it may be snapped by the
shock when the airbag is deployed. Always use a wire harness for vehicle use with a cross-sectional area of at least 1.25 mm2 (0.00192
in.2).
HINT
To calculate the cross-sectional area of the stripped wire harness section: Cross-sectional area = 3.14 x (Diameter)2 / 4
(1) Position the lower No. 2 instrument panel airbag inside a tire with the airbag deployment side facing inside.
