AVERTISSEMENT
■Précautions relatives aux coussins gonflables SRS
●Si vous avez des difficultés à respirer après le déploiement des coussins
gonflables SRS, ouvrez une porte ou une vitre pour faire entrer de l'air
frais, ou bien descendez du véhicule si cela ne présente pas de danger.
Essuyez tout résidu dès que possible afin d'éviter d'éventue\
lles irritations
de la peau.
● Si les parties renfermant les coussins gonflables SRS, comme les garnitu-
res du volant et des montants avant et arrière, sont endommagées ou cra-
quelées, faites-les remplacer par votre concessionnaire Toyota.
● Ne placez rien sur le siège du passager avant, comme un coussin par
exemple. Cela a pour conséquence de répartir le poids du passager sur
toute la surface du siège, ce qui empêche le capteur de détecter correcte-
ment le poids du passager. En conséquence, les coussins gonflables fron-
taux SRS du passager avant risquent de ne pas se déployer en cas de
collision.
■ Modification et mise au rebut des composants du système de coussins
gonflables SRS
Ne mettez pas votre véhicule au rebut et ne procédez à aucune des modifi-
cations suivantes sans consulter votre concessionnaire Toyota. Les cous-
sins gonflables SRS peuvent ne pas fonctionner correctement ou se
déployer (se gonfler) accidentellement, provoquant la mort ou de graves
blessures.
●Installation, dépose, démontage et réparation des coussins gonflables
SRS.
● Réparations, modifications, démontage ou remplacement du volant, du
tableau de bord, de la planche de bord, des sièges ou de leur garnissage,
des montants avant, latéraux et arrière ou des rails latéraux de toit.
● Réparations ou modifications des ailes avant, du pare-chocs avant ou des
flancs de l'habitacle.
● Installation d'un protège-calandre (pare-buffle, pare-kangourou, etc.), de
chasse-neige ou de treuils.
● Modifications du système de suspension du véhicule.
● Installation d'appareils électroniques tels que les émetteurs/récepteurs
radios mobiles et les lecteurs CD.
● Modifications de votre véhicule pour une personne atteinte d'un handicap
physique.
