    2. JACKING UP AND SUPPORTING VEHICLE
      1. Care must be taken when jacking up and supporting the vehicle. Be sure to lift and support the vehicle at the proper locations.
    3. PRECOATED PARTS
      1. Precoated parts are bolts and nuts that are coated with a seal lock adhesive at the factory.
      2. If a precoated part is retightened, loosened or moved in any way, it must be recoated with the specified adhesive.

      3. When reusing a precoated part, clean off the old adhesive and dry the part with compressed air. Then apply new seal lock adhesive appropriate to that part.
      4. Some seal lock agents harden slowly. You may have to wait for the seal lock adhesive to harden.
    4. GASKETS
      1. When necessary, use a sealer on gaskets to prevent leaks.
    5. BOLTS, NUTS AND SCREWS
      1. Carefully follow all the specifications for tightening torques. Always use a torque wrench.
    6. FUSES
      1. When inspecting a fuse, check that the wire of the fuse is not broken.
      2. When replacing fuses, be sure that the new fuse has the correct amperage rating. Do not exceed the rating or use one with a lower rating.

    9. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF VACUUM HOSES
      1. To disconnect a vacuum hose, pull and twist from the end of the hose. Do not pull from the middle of the hose as this may cause damage.
        Fig 4: Precaution For Disconnecting Vacuum Hose

      2. When disconnecting vacuum hoses, use tags to identify where they should be reconnected.
      3. After completing any hose related repairs, double check that the vacuum hoses are properly connected. The label under the hood shows the proper layout.
      4. When using a vacuum gauge, never force the hose onto a connector that is too large. If a hose has been stretched, it may leak air. Use a step-down adapter if necessary.

    10. TORQUE WHEN USING TORQUE WRENCH WITH EXTENSION TOOL
      Fig 6: Identifying Torque Wrench With Extension Tool
      G04434586Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
      1. Use the formula below to calculate special torque values for situations where SST or an extension tool is combined with a torque wrench.

        Formula: T' = L2 / (L1 + L2) * T

        G04434587Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
        TORQUE WRENCH WITH EXTENSION TOOL TABLE

        T' Reading of torque wrench {N*m (kgf*cm, ft.*lbf)}
        T Torque {N*m (kgf*cm, ft.*lbf)}
        L1 Length of SST or extension tool {cm (in.)}
        L2 Length of torque wrench {cm (in.)}
        NOTE: If an extension tool or SST is combined with a torque wrench and the wrench is used to tighten to a torque specification in this article, the actual torque will be excessive and parts will be damaged.
  2. FOR VEHICLES WITH SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM 

    The LAND CRUISER is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). The SRS of this vehicle consists of the following:

    1. Steering pad
    2. Front passenger airbag assembly
    3. Curtain shield airbag assembly
    4. Front seat side airbag assembly
    5. Center airbag sensor assembly
    6. Front airbag sensor
    7. Side and curtain shield airbag sensor
    8. Curtain shield airbag sensor
    9. Seat position sensor
    10. Front seat outer belt assembly with pretensioner
    CAUTION:
    • Failure to carry out service procedures in the correct sequence could cause SRS parts to unexpectedly deploy and possibly lead to serious injuries. Furthermore, if a mistake is made when servicing SRS parts, they may fail to operate when required. Before performing servicing (including installation/removal, inspection and replacement of parts), be sure to read the following precautions.
    • Before starting work, wait at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned OFF and after the cable of the negative (-) battery terminal is disconnected. (SRS parts are equipped with a backup power source. If work is started within 90 seconds of turning the ignition switch OFF and disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, SRS parts may deploy.)
    • Do not expose SRS parts directly to hot air or flames.
