■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side and curtain shield airbags)
●The SRS side and curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that
exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to the impact
force produced by an approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehicle colliding with the
vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle orientation at an
approximate speed of 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph]).
●The SRS side and curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of a severe frontal
collision.
■Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other than a collision
(SRS front airbags, SRS curtain shield airbag and SRS seat cushion airbag)
The SRS front airbags, SRS curtain shield airbag and SRS seat cushion airbag may
also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the underside of your vehicle. Some exam-
ples are shown in the illustration.
■Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS front airbags and SRS
seat cushion airbag)
The SRS front airbags and SRS seat cushion airbag do not generally inflate if the
vehicle is involved in a side or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-
speed frontal collision. But, whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient for-
ward deceleration of the vehicle, deployment of the SRS front airbags and SRS seat
cushion airbag may occur.
●Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hard
surface
●Falling into or jumping over a deep hole
●Landing hard or falling
●Collision from the side
●Collision from the rear
●Vehicle rollover

■The meters and display illuminate when
The engine switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
■Instrument panel brightness adjustment
●Meters:
The brightness level of the meters when the surroundings are bright (day mode)
and dark (night mode) can be adjusted individually. However, when in day mode,
adjusting the brightness level will also change the brightness level of night mode.
●Clock, air conditioning temperature display and switch lights:
The brightness level of the clock, air conditioning temperature display and switch
lights are linked with the brightness level of meter night mode.
■Light dimmer control (Changing to night mode)
The brightness level of the meter, clock and air conditioning temperature display
lights will change to night mode only wh en the surroundings are dark and the tail
lights are on.
■Automatic adjustment of the brightness level of the meters
The brightness level of the meters will be adjusted automatically according to the
brightness of the surroundings detected by the light sensor. However, the brightness
level of the meters will not be adjusted automatically in the following conditions.
●Day mode: When the brightness of the meter is adjusted to the brightest manually
●Night mode: When the brightness of the meter is adjusted to the brightest or dark-
est manually

more Eco-friendly your driving is. Also, while the vehicle is stopped or the acceler-
ation exceeds Zone of Eco driving, ECO lamp turns off. ( P. 132) However, when
Eco drive mode is selected, while the vehicle is stopped or the acceleration
exceeds Zone of Eco driving, ECO lamp does not turn off.):
