441-1. For safe use
WARNING
●The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause
death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the air-bag.
Since the risk zone for the driver’s air-
bag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.) of
inflation, placing yourself 250 mm (10
in.) from your driver airbag provides
you with a clear margin of safety. This
distance is measured from the center
of the steering wheel to your breast-
bone. If you sit less than 250 mm (10
in.) away now, you can change your
driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as
you can while still reaching the ped- als comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250
mm (10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, sim-ply by reclining the back of the seat
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm,
non-slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air-bag toward your chest instead of
your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as rec- ommended above, while still main-
taining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instrument panel controls.
●The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable force, and can cause death or seri-
ous injury especially if the front pas- senger is very close to the airbag. The front passenger seat should be
as far from the airbag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits upright.
●Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or
seriously injured by a deploying air- bag. An infant or child who is too small to use a seat belt should be
properly secured using a child restraint system. Toyota strongly recommends that all infants and
children be placed in the rear seats of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are safer
for infants and children than the front passenger seat. ( P.50)
●Do not sit on the edge of the seat or lean against the dashboard.
●Do not allow a child to stand in front of the SRS front passenger airbag unit or sit on the knees of a front
passenger.
●Do not allow the front seat occu-
pants to hold items on their knees.

1-1. For safe use
For safety and security
WARNING
●Do not lean against the door, the roof side rail or the front, side and
rear pillars.
●Do not allow anyone to kneel on the
passenger seat toward the door or put their head or hands outside the vehicle.
●Do not attach anything to or lean anything against areas such as the
dashboard, steering wheel pad and lower portion of the instrument panel.
These items can become projec- tiles when the SRS driver, front passenger and knee airbags
deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas such as a door, windshield, side windows, front or rear pillar, roof
side rail and assist grip. (Except for the speed limit label P.585)
●Do not hang coat hangers or other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of these items could become pro-
jectiles and may cause death or serious injury, should the SRS cur-tain shield airbags deploy.
●If a vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS knee airbag will
deploy, be sure to remove it.
●Do not use seat accessories which
cover the parts where the SRS side airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the SRS airbags.
Such accessories may prevent the SRS side airbags from activating correctly, disable the system or
cause the SRS side airbags to inflate accidentally, resulting in death or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the
SRS airbag components or the front doors.Doing so can cause the SRS air-
bags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component
parts immediately after the SRS air- bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.

621-2. Child safety
■Removing a child restraint
system installed with a seat
belt
Press the buckle release button
and fully retract the seat belt.
When releasing the buckle, the child
restraint system may spring up due to
the rebound of the seat cushion.
Release the buckle while holding down
the child restraint system.
Since the seat belt automatically reels
itself, slowly return it to the stowing
position.
■When installing a child restraint system
You may need a locking clip to install the child restraint system. Follow the instructions provided by the manufac-
turer of the system. If your child restraint system does not provide a locking clip, you can purchase the following item
from any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-able repairer: Locking clip for child
restraint system (Part No. 73119-22010)
■ISOFIX lower anchorages
(ISOFIX child restraint system)
Lower anchorages are provided for
the outboard rear seats. (Tags dis-
playing the location of the anchor-
ages are attached to the seats.)
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint
system
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Do not allow children to play with
the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or
other serious injuries that could result in death. If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened,
scissors should be used to cut the belt.
●Ensure that the belt and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is not twisted.
●Shake the child restraint system left and right, and forward and back-
ward to ensure that it has been securely installed.
●After securing a child restraint sys-tem, never adjust the seat.
●When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is positioned across the center
of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could
fall off the child’s shoulder.
●Follow all installation instructions
provided by the child restraint sys- tem manufacturer.

1-4. Theft deterrent system
For safety and security
●The doors are unlocked using the
mechanical key.
●A person inside the vehicle opens a
door or hood, or unlocks the vehicle using an inside lock button.
●The 12-volt battery is recharged or replaced when the vehicle is locked. ( P.606)
■Alarm-operated door lock
In the following cases, depending on the
situation, the door may automatically lock to prevent improper entry into the vehicle:
●When a person remaining in the vehi-cle unlocks the door and the alarm is
activated.
●While the alarm is activated, a person
remaining in the vehicle unlocks the door.
●When recharging or replacing the 12-volt battery.
■Customization (if equipped)
The alarm can be set to deactivate when the mechanical key is used to unlock.(Customizable features: P.630)
■The intrusion sensor and tilt
sensor detection
 The intrusion sensor detects
intruders or movement in the
vehicle.
 The tilt sensor detects changes
in vehicle inclination, such as
when the vehicle is towed away.
This system is designed to deter
and prevent vehicle theft but does
not guarantee absolute security
against all intrusions.
■Setting the intrusion sensor
and tilt sensor
The intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
will be set automatically when the
alarm is set. ( P.78)
■Canceling the intrusion sensor
and tilt sensor
If you are leaving pets or other
moving things inside the vehicle,
make sure to disable the intrusion
sensor and tilt sensor before setting
NOTICE
■To ensure the system operates correctly
Do not modify or remove the system.
If modified or removed, the proper operation of the system cannot be guaranteed.
