Occupant Classification System: Initialization: Initialization

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Toyota Avalon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:

Make sure that the front passenger seat is not occupied before performing the operation:

HINT: 

Perform zero point calibration and sensitivity check if any of the following conditions occur.

  1. ZERO POINT CALIBRATION 
    1. Zero point calibration and sensitivity check procedures.

      HINT: 

      Make sure that zero point calibration has finished normally, and then perform the sensitivity check.

      1. Check that all of the following conditions are met:
        • The vehicle is parked on a level surface.
        • No objects are placed on the front passenger seat.
        • The front passenger seat belt buckle switch is OFF.
      2. Adjust the seat position according to the table below.
        Adjustment Component Position
        Slide Direction Rearmost position
        Reclining Angle Upright position
        Headrest Height Lowest position
        Lifter Height Lowest position
      3. Turn the ignition switch off.
      4. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
      5. Turn the ignition switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.
      6. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Occupant Detection / Utility / Zero Point Calibration.
      7. Perform the zero point calibration by following the prompts on the Techstream screen.

        HINT: 

        • Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details.
        • If the zero point calibration does not complete, replace the front seat assembly RH.

        OK

        "Zero Point Calibration is complete." is displayed.

  2. SENSITIVITY CHECK 
    1. Sensitivity check procedures
      1. Turn the ignition switch off.
      2. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
      3. Turn the ignition switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.
      4. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Occupant Detection / Utility / Sensitivity Check.
      5. Perform the sensitivity check by following the prompts on the Techstream screen.

        HINT: 

        Refer to the Techstream operator's manual for further details.

      6. Confirm that the beginning sensor reading within standard value.

        Standard value

        -3.2 to 3.2 kg (-7 to 7 lb)

      7. Place a 30 kg (66.14 lb) weight (eg. a 30 kg (66.14 lb) of lead mass) onto the front passenger seat.
      8. Confirm that the sensitivity is within the standard value.

        Standard value

        27 to 33 kg (59.52 to 72.75 lb)

        HINT: 

        • When performing the sensitivity check, use a solid metal weight (the check result may not appear properly if the weight made from liquid is used).
        • If the sensitivity deviates from the specified range, retighten the bolts of the front passenger seat without deforming the seat rail. After performing this procedure, if the sensitivity is not within the specified range, replace the front seat assembly RH.
