When scrapping vehicles equipped with a seat belt pretension-
er or disposing of a front seat outer belt (with seat belt preten-
sioner) always first activate the seat belt pretensioner in accor-
dance with the procedure described below. If any abnormality

sance to nearby residents.

When activating the seat belt pretensioner, always
use the specified SST. (SRS Airbag Deployment Tool)
Perform the operation in a place away from electrical
noise.

pretensioner), perform the operation at least 10 m (33
ft) away from the front seat outer belt.

Use gloves and safety glasses when handling a front
seat outer belt with activated pretensioner.

Always wash your hands with water after completing
the operation.

Do not apply water, etc. to a front seat outer belt with
the activated pretensioner.
