4Maintenance and care5When trouble arises

132 1-7. Safety information
CAUTION
SRS warning light
If the warning light exhibits any of the following conditions, there may be a
malfunction in the seat belt pretensioners and/or SRS airbag system. We
recommend that you have the system checked immediately by your nearest
any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional. Unless checked and properly repaired, the seat belt
pretensioners and/or SRS airbags will operate improperly (e.g. SRS airbags
may inflate in a very minor collision or not inflate in a severe collision), which
may increase the risk of injury.
Flashing or flickering of the warning light
No illumination of the warning light when the engine switch is first turned to
the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart entry & start system), or the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode (vehicles
with a smart entry & start system).
Continuous illumination of the warning light
Illumination of the warning light while driving

153 1-7. Safety information

Before driving
Airbag manual on-off indicator information
The front passenger’s front airbag ON and OFF indicators shows you the
status of the front passenger’s SRS front airbag. When the engine switch
is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart entry & start sys-
tem) or the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned to IGNITION ON
mode (vehicles with a smart entry & start system), both the ON and OFF
indicators illuminate while the system is checked, after which both indica-
tors turn off. After that, “ON” or “OFF” on the ON-OFF indicator will be
illuminated according to the position of the airbag manual on-off switch.
If any of the following problems occur, it is possible that there is a mal-
function in the system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional.
• Neither “ON” nor “OFF” comes on.
• The indicator light does not change when the airbag manual on-off
switch is switched to “ON” or “OFF”.
CAUTION
When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system in a rear seat. In
the event that the rear seat cannot be used, the front seat can be used as
long as the airbag manual on-off system is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag
deployment (inflation) may cause serious injury or even death.
When a child restraint system is not installed on the front passenger
seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off system is set to “ON”.
If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident, which
may result in serious injury or even death.

162 2-1. Driving procedures
CAUTION
Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving
down a steep hill.
Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and lose
effectiveness. (P. 182, 188)
Do not adjust the position of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or
outside rear view mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control that can cause accidents,
resulting in death or serious injury.
Always check that all passengers' arms, heads or other parts of their body
are not outside the vehicle, as this may result in death or serious injury.
When driving on slippery road surfaces
Sudden braking, acceleration and steering may cause tire slippage and
reduce your ability to control the vehicle, resulting in an accident.
Sudden acceleration, engine braking due to shifting, or changes in engine
speed could cause the vehicle to skid, resulting in an accident.
After driving through a puddle, lightly depress the brake pedal to make
sure that the brakes are functioning properly. Wet brake pads may prevent
the brakes from functioning properly. If the brakes on only one side are wet
and not functioning properly, steering control may be affected, resulting in
an accident.
When shifting the shift lever
On vehicles with an automatic transmission, be careful not to shift the shift
lever with the accelerator pedal depressed. Shifting the shift lever to a
gear other than P or N may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the
vehicle that may cause an accident and result in death or serious injury.
Do not place items in the shift lever's surrounding area. It may cause incor-
rect operation.
If the shift boot is pulled out during cleaning, return it to its previous posi-
tion. If the shift boot is left pulled out, the shift lever may become difficult to
operate.
