In response to a severe frontal impact,
the SRS airbags work together with the
seat belts to help prevent or reduce injury
by inflating. The SRS airbags help to re-
duce injuries mainly to 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 ON" position, the front passen-
ger airbag is activated even with no pas-
senger in the front seat.
Be sure to wear your seat belt properly.
Your vehicle is equipped with a crash
sensing and diagnostic module, which will
record the use of the seat belt restraint
system by the driver when the SRS airbag
is inflated.CAUTION
A driver or front passenger too close
to the steering wheel or dashboard
during airbag deployment can be
killed or seriously injured. Toyota
strongly recommends that:
The driver sit as far back as pos-
sible from the steering wheel while
still maintaining control of the ve-
hicle.
The front passenger sit as far back
as possible from the dashboard.
All vehicle occupants be properly
restrained using the available seat
belts.The passenger airbag system is
equipped with a manual on−off switch
and indicator light. Turning the passen-
ger airbag manual on−off switch clock-
wise to the ON" position makes the
front passenger airbag system opera-
tional. Turning the passenger airbag
manual on−off switch counterclockwise
to the OFF" position disables the front
passenger airbag system. The indicator
light on the passenger airbag manual
on−off switch will come on when the
front passenger airbag system has been
disabled.
See Passenger airbag manual on−off
switch" in this section for detail.
