The SRS front airbags may also deploy
if a serious impact occurs to the under-
side of your vehicle. Some examples
are shown in the illustration.
MS13033c
The SRS front airbag system consists
mainly of the following components, and
their locations are shown in the illustra-
tion.
1. Airbag manual on−off switch
2. SRS warning light
3. Airbag module for front passenger
(airbag and inflator)
4. Airbag sensor assembly
5. Airbag module for driver
(airbag and inflator)
The airbag sensor assembly consists of a
safing sensor and airbag sensor.
The airbag sensor constantly monitors the
forward deceleration of the vehicle. If an
impact results in a forward deceleration
beyond the designed threshold level, the
system triggers the airbag inflators. At this
time a chemical reaction in the inflators
very quickly fills the airbags with non−tox-
ic gas to help restrain the forward motion
of the occupants. The front airbags then
quickly deflate, so that there is no ob-
struction of the driver ’s vision should it be
necessary to continue driving.

This indicator comes on when the en-
gine switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion. It goes off after about 6 seconds.
This means the SRS front airbags are
operating properly.
This warning light system monitors the
airbag sensor assembly, side airbag
sensors, side and curtain shield airbag
sensors, airbag manual on−off switch, seat
belt pretensioner assemblies, inflators,
warning light, interconnecting wiring and
power sources. (For details, see “Service
reminder indicators and warning buzzers”
on page 127 in Section 1−6.)
If any of the following conditions occurs,
this indicates a malfunction of the airbags
or seat belt pretensioners. Contact any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional, as soon as possible.

Collision from the rear
Collision from the front
Vehicle rollover
The SRS side airbags are not generally
designed to inflate if the vehicle is in-
volved in a front or rear collision, if it
rolls over, or if it is involved in a low−
speed side collision.

The SRS side airbag system consists
mainly of the following components, and
their locations are shown in the illustra-
tion.
1. Airbag manual on−off switch
2. SRS warning light
3. Airbag sensor assembly
4. Side airbag modules
(airbag and inflator)
5. Side airbag sensors
(5−door models only)
6. Side airbag sensors
(3−door models only)
The SRS side airbag system is controlled
by the airbag sensor assembly. The airbag
sensor assembly consists of a safing sen-
sor and airbag sensor.
In a severe side impact, the side airbag
sensor triggers the side airbag inflators.
At this time a chemical reaction in the
inflators quickly fills the airbags with non−
toxic gas to help restrain the lateral mo-
tion of the occupants.

The SRS side airbag and curtain shield
airbag system consists mainly of the fol-
lowing components, and their locations are
shown in the illustration.
1. Airbag manual on−off switch
2. SRS warning light
3. Airbag sensor assembly
4. Curtain shield airbag modules
(airbag and inflator)
5. Side and curtain shield airbag sensors
(5−door models)
6. Side airbag modules
(airbag and inflator)
7. Side and curtain shield airbag sensors
(3−door models)
The SRS side airbag and curtain shield
airbag system is controlled by the airbag
sensor assembly. The airbag sensor as-
sembly consists of a safing sensor and
airbag sensor.
In a severe side impact, the side and
curtain shield airbag sensor triggers the
side airbag and curtain shield airbag inflat-
ors. At this time a chemical reaction in
the inflators quickly fills the airbags with
non−toxic gas to help restrain the lateral
motion of the occupants.When the airbags inflate, they produce a
fairly loud noise and release some smoke
and residue along with non−toxic gas. This
does not indicate a fire. This smoke may
remain inside the vehicle for some time,
and may cause some minor irritation to
the eyes, skin or breathing. Be sure to
wash off any residue as soon as possible
to prevent any potential skin irritation with
soap and water. If you can safely exit
from the vehicle, you should do so imme-
diately.
Deployment of the airbags happens in a
fraction of a second, so the airbags must
inflate with considerable force. While the
system is designed to reduce serious inju-
ries, it may also cause minor burns or
abrasions and swelling.
Front seats as well as parts of the front,
center and rear pillars, roof side rail and
roof headlining may be hot for several
minutes, but the airbags themselves will
not be hot. The airbags are designed to
inflate only once.

The airbag manual on−off system con-
sists of an airbag manual on−off switch
and SRS warning light. The switch can
disable the front airbag on the front
passenger side only. The SRS warning
light comes on when the airbag is dis-
abled. Disable the airbag only when
installing a rear−facing child restraint
system on the front passenger seat is
unavoidable.
The airbag manual on−off switch is lo-
cated on the driver side instrument panel
and the SRS warning light is located on
the instrument cluster panel.
Before operating the airbag manual on−off
switch, stop the vehicle and turn the en-
gine off. Insert the key into the key cylin-
der and turn it. To disable the airbag, turn
the key to the “OFF” position. The SRS
warning light will come on to tell you that
the airbag is off when the engine is turned
on. (For details about the indicator light,
see the following descriptions.) Be sure to
remove the key from the key cylinder.
Vehicles with side and curtain shield air-
bags—Thissystem cannot turn off the
side airbags and curtain shield airbags.

CAUTION
DYou must turn off the front airbag
on the front passenger side when it
is unavoidable to install the rear−
facing child restraint system on the
front passenger seat.
DNever install a rear−facing child re-
straint system on the front passen-
ger seat with the airbag turned on.
Otherwise, the force of the rapid
inflation of the airbag could cause
death or serious injury to the child.
DUnless the rear−facing child re-
straint system is installed on the
front passenger seat, the airbag
should be turned on to avoid death
or serious injuries to the front pas-
senger. Make sure that the SRS
warning light is off.
DTurning off the airbag can reduce
the performance of the SRS system
in certain accidents and increase
the likelihood of death or serious
injuries to the front passenger.
For details, see “SRS driver airbag
and front passenger airbag” on page
55 in this Section.
