INSPECTION
CAUTION:
Replace the seat belt assembly (outer belt, inner belt, bolts,
nuts or sill±bar) if it has been used in a severe impact. The
entire assembly should be replaced even if damage is not
obvious.
1. RUNNING TEST (IN SAFE AREA)
(a) Fasten the front seat belts.
(b) Drive the car at 10 mph (16 km/h) and slam on the brakes.
Check that the belt locks and cannot be extended at this
time.
HINT:
Conduct this test in a safe area. If the belt does not lock, remove
the belt mechanism assembly and conduct the following static
check. Also, whenever installing a new belt assembly, verify the
proper operation before installation.
2. Driver 's seat belt (ELR):
STATIC TEST
(a) Make sure that the belt locks when pulled out quickly.
(b) Remove the locking retractor assembly.
HINT:
Before removing the pretensioner connector, be sure to read
the precautionary notice in the RS section.
(c) Tilt the retractor slowly.
(d) Make sure that the belt can be pulled out at a tilt of 15 de-
grees or less, and cannot be pulled out over 45 degrees
of tilt.
If a problem is found, replace the assembly.
3. Except driver's seat belt (ELR/ALR):
STATIC TEST
(a) Make sure that the belt locks when pulled out quickly.
(b) Pull out the whole belt, then retract the belt slightly and
pull it out again
(c) Make sure that the belt cannot be extended further.
If a problem is found, replace the assembly.
(d) Remove the locking retractor assembly.
HINT:
Front passenger's seat belt only:
Before removing the pretensioner connector, be sure to read
the precautionary notice in the RS section.
(e) Tilt the retractor slowly.

In order to be effective, the SRS airbags must deploy with
tremendous speed. The rapid deployment of the SRS air-
bags makes the SRS airbags themselves potential sources
of serious injury if an occupant is too close to an airbag,
or if an object or some part of his or her body has been
placed between the occupant and the airbag at the time of
deployment. This is just one example of how the instruc-
tions in Section 1±3 of this Owner 's Manual will help en-
sure proper use of the occupant restraint systems, and
increase the safety they can provide to you and your fami-
ly in the event of an accident.
Toyota recommends you to read the provisions in Section
1±3 carefully and refer to them as needed during your time
of ownership of this vehicle.Event data recorder
Your vehicle has computers that monitor and control cer-
tain aspects of your vehicle. These computers assist in
driving and maintaining optimal vehicle performance. Be-
sides storing data useful for troubleshooting, there is a
system to record data in a crash or a near car crash
event. This is called an Event Data Recorder (EDR).
The SRS airbag sensor assembly contains the EDR. In a
crash or a near car crash event, this device records some
or all of the following information:
Engine speed
Whether the brake pedal was applied or not
Vehicle speed
To what extent the accelerator pedal was depressed
Position of the transmission selector lever
Whether the driver and front passenger wore the seat
belts or not
Driver 's seat position
Front passenger 's occupant classification
