Roll Sensing Of Curtain Shield Airbags Off Switch - Toyota 2006 Land Cruiser Owner's Manual

Roll sensing of curtain shield
airbags off switch
The roll sensing of curtain shield airbags
off switch can turn off the curtain
shield airbags and front seat belt pre-
tensioners in a vehicle rollover. This
switch should only be used in a situa-
tion where the inflation is not desired
(such as extreme off- road driving).
When you push the roll sensing
shield airbags off switch for a few seconds
with the ignition switch on, the roll sens-
ing off indicator
of curtain shield airbags
light comes on and the roll sensing func-
tion is turned off. When you push the
switch again, the indicator light goes off
and the roll sensing function is turned on.
208
In a severe side impact, the curtain shield
airbags on impacted side will inflate even
if the roll sensing function is turned off.
If the ignition switch is turned to "ACC" or
"LOCK" with the roll sensing function off
and then the ignition switch is turned back
to "ON", the roll sensing function will be
back on automatically.
For details, "Seat belt pretensioners" on
page 57 or "SRS side airbags and curtain
shield airbags with roll sensing function"
