Before driving WARNING■ Front passenger occupant classification system precautions
● Never install a rearward facing child seat in the front passenger’s seat
even if the front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag is deactivated. Be sure to
install it in the rear seat in a correct manner. Also, it is strongly recom-
mended that any forward facing child seat or booster seat be installed in
the rear seat, and that even children who have outgrown a child restraint
system be also seated in the rear seat. This is because children sitting in
the front passenger’s seat may be killed or severely injured should the
front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag deploy. Toyota believes that the rear
seats are the safest place for children
● If luggage or electronic devices are placed on the front passenger seat,
the OFF indicator may turn off and the ON indicator may illuminate. If this
occurs, the front passenger’s airbag may deploy during a collision. If this is
not desirable, remove the luggage or electronic devices from the front pas-
senger seat.
● Modifications for persons with disabilit ies that may affect the front passen-
ger occupant classification system. (U.S. only) Removing, replacing or
modifying any parts of the front seat s, seat belts, front bumper, front side
frame, instrument panel, combination meter, steering wheel, steering col-
umn, tires, suspension or floor panel can affect the operation of the Toyota
front passenger occupant classification system.
