Before driving 1-7. Safety information
Correct driving posture Drive in a good posture as follows:
Sit upright and well back in
the seat. (  P. 6 8 )
Adjust the position of the seat
forward or backward to
ensure the pedals can be
reached and easily
depressed to the extent
required. (  P. 6 8 )
Adjust the seatback so that
the controls are easily opera-
ble. (  P. 6 8 )
Adjust the tilt and telescopic
positions of the steering
wheel downward so the air-
bag is facing your chest.
(  P. 9 0 )
Lock the head restraint in
place with the center of the
head restraint closest to the
top of your ears. (  P. 8 1 )
Wear the seat belt correctly.
(  P. 8 3 )

1221-7. Safety information
Your vehicle is equipped with AD VANCED AIRBAGS designed based
on the US motor vehicl e safety standards (FMV SS208). The airbag sen-
sor assembly (ECU) controls airbag deployment based on information
obtained from the sensors etc. show n in the system components diagram
above. This information includes cras h severity and occupant informa-
tion. As the airbags deploy, a chemica l reaction in the infla tors quic kly fills
the airbags with non-toxi c gas to help restrain th e motion of the occu-
pants.■
If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate) ●
Bruising and slight abrasion s may result from contact with a deploying (inflating)
SRS airbag.●
A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.●
Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as
well as the seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side rails, may be hot
for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.●
The windshield may crack.●
For Safety Connect subscribers, if the SR S airbags deploy or in the event of a
severe rear-end collision, the system is designed to send an emergency call to
the response center, notifying them of the vehicle’s location (without needing to
push the “SOS” button) and an agent will attempt to speak with the occupants
to ascertain the level of emergency and assistance required. If the occupants
are unable to communicate, the agent automatically treats the call as an emer-
gency and helps to dispatch the necessary emergency services. (  P. 6 4 2 )■
SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags) ●
The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the
set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approximately 12 -
18 mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or
deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following situa-
tions:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which
can move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in which
the front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes under, the bed of a truck
