This front seat belt pretensioner system
has a service reminder indicator to inform
the driver of operating problems. If either
of the following conditions occurs, this
indicates a malfunction of the airbags or
pretensioners. Contact your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible to service the
vehicle.

The light does not come on when the
ignition key is turned to the ACCº or
ONº position, or remains on.

or cannot be pulled out due to a mal-
function or activation of the pretension-
er.

The front seat belt pretensioner assem-
bly or surrounding area has been dam-
aged.

in the illustration) was involved in an
accident that did not cause the seat
belt pretensioners to operate.

The front seat belt pretensioner assem-
bly is scratched, cracked, or otherwise
damaged.
The SRS (Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem) airbags are designed to provide
further protection for the driver and
front passenger when added to the pri-
mary protection provided by the seat
belts.
In response to a severe frontal impact,
the SRS airbags work together with the
seat belts to help prevent or reduce injury
by inflating, in order to decrease the likeli-
hood of the driver 's or front passenger 's
head or chest directly hitting the steering
wheel or dashboard. When the passenger
airbag manual on- off switch is in the ONº
position, the passenger airbag is activated
even with no passenger in the front seat.
Be sure to wear your seat belt.
