Sit in a normal upright position.Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.Do not leave anything between the occupants and the airbags (a child, pet, object...), nor fix or attach anything close to the inflation trajectory of the airbags; this could cause injuries during their deployment.Never modify the original definition of your vehicle, particularly in the area directly around the airbags.After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the airbag systems checked.All work on the airbag system must be carried out by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.Even if all of the precautions mentioned are observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms when an airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment the lateral airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle, you can contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.For more information on Accessories, refer to the corresponding section.Do not fix or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause injury to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
The bag inflates almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) then deflates within the same time discharging the hot gas via openings provided for this purpose.
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.Do not fit or attach anything to the steering wheel or dashboard, this could cause injuries with deployment of the airbags.
Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the safety recommendations below:
The vehicle's front door panels include side impact sensors.A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or repair) on the front doors or their interior trim could compromise the operation of these sensors - Risk of malfunction of the lateral airbags!Such work must only be done by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

When towing
Distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance. Above 1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature of the coolant.As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.F To lower the engine speed, reduce your speed.The maximum towed load on a long incline depends on the gradient and the ambient temperature.In all cases, keep a check on the coolant temperature.
F If the warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
For more information on Weights, refer to the corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically to avoid the audible signal if a genuine Toyota towbar is used.
If the ambient temperature is high, it is recommended that the engine be allowed to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.
For more information on Adjusting the headlamp beam height, refer to the corresponding section.

Clean the front bumper, removing the snow, mud, ...
If one of the two sensors (camera or radar) is masked or its visibility is reduced, while the other sensor is able to work normally, the system still operates, but at a lower level of per formance. This is not indicated by a message or a warning lamp.To ensure correct operation of the radar radar, do not paint over the paintwork on the vehicle's bumper.
Keep the windscreen in front of the camera clean.Do not allow snow to accumulate on the bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could mask the camera's view.
Lane Departure Alert
System that uses a camera to recognise continuous or broken lines on traffic lanes and triggers an alert if the vehicle wanders off line.If the direction indicator is not used at speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h) and there is a risk of one of these lines on the ground being crossed, the system triggers the alert.The system is particularly useful on motor ways and fast roads.
Detection - Alert
You are alerted by the flashing of this warning lamp in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal.
No alert is given while the direction indicators are operating and for approximately 20 seconds after the direction indicators are switched off.
The Lane Departure Alert cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.It is necessary to observe the driving regulations and to take a break every two hours.

Blind spot monitoring system
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the side in question:- immediately, when being overtaken,- after a delay of about one second, when overtaking a vehicle slowly.
This driving assistance system warns the driver of the presence of another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field of vision), as soon as this presents a potential danger.
The alert is given by a warning lamp which comes on in the door mirror on the side in question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry, bicycle - is detected and the following conditions are fulfilled:- all the vehicles must be moving in the same direction and on adjacent lanes,- the speed of your vehicle is between 7 and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),- when you overtake a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),- when a vehicle overtakes you with a speed difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),- the traffic must be flowing normally,- in the case of an overtaking manoeuvre, if this is prolonged and the vehicle being overtaken returns to the blind spot,- you are driving on a straight or slightly curved road,- your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan...
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.The blind spot sensor system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

Operating fault
Have it checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail...).In particular, driving on a wet sur face or moving from a dry area to a wet area can cause false alerts (for example, the presence of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot angle is interpreted as a vehicle).In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.Take care not to cover the warning zone in the door mirrors or the detection zones on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels or other objects; they may hamper the correct operation of the system.
Depending on your vehicle's equipment:
With the touch screen
In the Driving menu, activate/deactivate "Blind spot monitoring".In the event of a fault, these warning lamps flash.
The indicator lamp in this button flashes and a message appears, accompanied by an audible signal.
The state of the system remains in memory on switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically deactivated when towing with a towbar approved by To y o t a .
High pressure jet washWhen washing your vehicle, do not place the tip of the lance within 30 cm of the sensors as otherwise there is a risk of damaging them.
