The seat belt pretensioners are controlled
by the airbag sensor assembly. The airbag
sensor assembly consists of a safing sen-
sor and airbag sensor.
When the seat belt pretensioners are acti-
vated, an operating noise may be heard
and a small amount of non−toxic gas may
be released. This does not indicate that
a fire is occurring. This gas is normally
harmless.
Once the seat belt pretensioners have
been activated, the seat belt retractors
remain locked.
CAUTION
Do not modify, remove, strike or open
the seat belt pretensioner assemblies,
airbag sensor or surrounding area or
wiring. Failure to follow these instruc-
tions may prevent the seat belt pre-
tensioners from activating correctly,
cause sudden operation of the system
or disable the system, which could
result in death or serious injury. Con-
sult your Toyota dealer about any re-
pair and modification.
NOTICE
Do not perform any of the following
changes without consulting your
Toyota dealer. Such changes can in-
terfere with proper operation of the
seat belt pretensioners in some
cases.
 Installation of electronic devices
such as a mobile twoway radio,
cassette tape player or compact
disc player
 Repairs on or near the front seat
belt retractor assemblies
 Modification of the suspension sys-
tem
 Modification of the front end struc-
ture
 Attachment of a grille guard (bull
bar, kangaroo bar, etc.), snowplow,
winches or any other equipment to
the front end
 Repairs made on or near the front
fenders, front end structure or con-
sole

ing. Do not modify, remove, strike
or open any components, such as
the steering wheel pad, steering
wheel, column cover, dashboard
near the front passenger airbag,
front passenger airbag cover, front
passenger airbag or airbag sensor
assembly. Doing so may prevent the
front airbag system from activating
correctly, cause sudden front air-
bags activation of the system or
disable the system, which could re-
sult in death or serious injury.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or serious injury.
Consult your Toyota dealer about any
repair and modification.
If you wish to modify your vehicle for
a person with a physical disability,
consult your Toyota dealer. It may
dangerously interfere with the SRS

ON” mode is enabled. It goes off after
about 6 seconds. This means the SRS
front airbags, side and curtain shield
airbags and seat belt pretensioners are
operating properly.
The warning light system monitors the air-

(j) Engine Oil Replacement Reminder Light (for vehicles sold in U.S.A.)
This light acts as a reminder to replace
the engine oil.
This light will come on when the “IG −ON”
mode is enabled, and will go off after
about a few seconds. When you drive for about 7200 km (4500
miles) after engine oil replacement, this
light illuminates for about 3 seconds and
then flashes for about 12 seconds when
the hybrid system is in the “IG
−ON”
mode. If you continue driving without en-
gine oil replacement, and if the driving
range exceeds 8000 km (5000 miles), the
light will come on after the “IG −ON” mode
is enabled. The light will remain on there-
after.
If the light is flashing, we recommend that
you replace the engine oil at an early
opportunity depending on the driving and
road conditions. If the light comes on,
replace the oil as soon as possible.
The system must be reset after the en-
gine oil replacement. Reset the system by
the following procedure:
1. Press the “POWER” switch to the “OFF” mode
with the odometer reading
shown. (For details, see “Odometer and
two trip meters” on page 123.)
2. Press the “POWER” switch twice to select the “IG −ON” mode while holding
down the trip meter reset button.

If an accident occurs
Pull your vehicle off the road,
push the “P” position switch,
stop the hybrid system and if
the key is inserted into key
slot, remove it.
In order to avoid personal in-
juries, do not touch any high
voltage wirings and their con-
nectors, and high voltage
parts (inverter unit, hybrid
battery, etc.).
If some exposed electric
wires are protruding inside or
outside of your vehicle, an
electric shock may occur.
Never touch the electric
wires.
If fluid leaks or gets in some
parts of the vehicle, never
touch it because it may be
electrolyte (strong alkali) from
the hybrid battery. If it gets
into your skin or eyes, wash
off immediately with a large
amount of water, if possible,
boric acid solution, and get
immediate medical attention
in order to help avoid serious
injury.
If a vehicle fire occurs, extin-
guish it using a fire extin-
guisher for the exclusive use
on electric fires. Or, use a
large amount of water to pre-
vent flammable gas from be-
ing generated from the batter-
ies.
If your vehicle needs to be
towed, do it with the front
wheels raised. For details on
towing, see “If your vehicle
needs to be towed” on page
372 in Section 5.
