ranty Booklet”.
Scrapping of your Toyota
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota
contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the air-
bag and pretensioner left as they are, this may cause an accident
such as fire. Be sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and
seat belt pretensioner removed and disposed of by a qualified ser-
vice shop or by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional, before you dispose of your
vehicle.
Your vehicle contains batteries and/or accumulators. Do not discard
them into the environment but cooperate with separate collection (Di-
rective 2006/66/EC).

SEATS, SEAT BELTS, STEERING WHEEL AND MIRRORS35
The driver ’s seat belt pretensioner is
designed to be activated in response to
a severe frontal impact.
When the airbag sensor detects the shock
of a severe frontal impact, the driver ’s
seat belt is quickly drawn back in by the
retractor so that the belt snugly restrains
the driver.
Collisionsoccurring at certain speeds and
angles may cause the seat belt preten-
sioner and SRS airbag not to operate all
together.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 driver ’s seat belt pre-
tensioner is operating properly.
This warning light system monitors the
airbag sensor assembly, airbag sensor,
driver ’s seat belt pretensioner assembly,
inflator, interconnecting wiring and power
sources. (For details, see “Service remind-
er indicators and warning buzzer” on page
73 in Section 1−5.)
