For safe driving
Adjust the angle of the seat- 
back so that you are sitting 
straight up and so that you do 
not have to lean forward to 
steer. ( P. 218) 
Adjust the seat so that you can 
depress the pedals fully and so 
that your arms bend slightly at 
the elbow when gripping the
steering wheel. ( P. 218) 
Vehicles with adjustable type head restraint: Lock the head restraint 
in place with the center of the head restraint closest to the top of 
your ears. ( P. 223) 
Wear the seat belt correctly. ( P.  4 0 ) 
Make sure that all occupants are wearing their seat belts before driv- 
ing the vehicle. ( P.  4 0 ) 
Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child 
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.  
( P.  6 5 )
For safe driving, adjust the seat and mirror to an appropriate 
position before driving.

The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The 
SRS airbag system is controlled by the airbag sensor assembly. As 
the airbags deploy, a chemical reaction in the inflators quickly fills the 
airbags with non-toxic gas to help restrain the motion of the occu- 
pants.
WARNING
■ SRS airbag precautions 
Observe the following precautions regarding the SRS airbags.  
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury. 
● The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts 
properly. 
The SRS airbags are supplemental devic es to be used with the seat belts. 
● The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause 
death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag. 
Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.) 
of inflation, placing yourself 250 mm ( 10 in.) from your driver airbag pro- 
vides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured from 
the center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less than
250 mm (10 in.) away now, you can change your driving position in sev- 
eral ways: 
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the ped- 
als comfortably. 
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary, 
many drivers can achieve the 250 mm (10 in.) distance, even with the
driver seat all the way forward, simply by reclining the back of the seat 
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the 
road, raise yourself by using a firm, non-slippery cushion, or raise the
seat if your vehicle has that feature. 
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air- 
bag toward your chest instead of your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as recommended above, while still maintain- 
ing control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instru- 
ment panel controls.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
●Vehicles with SRS side and curtain 
shield airbags: Do not lean against the 
door, the roof side rail or the front, side
and rear pillars. 
● Vehicles with SRS side and curtain 
shield airbags: Do not allow anyone to 
kneel on the passenger seat toward the
door or put their head or hands outside 
the vehicle. 
● Do not attach anything to or lean any- 
thing against areas such as the dash- 
board, steering wheel pad and lower 
portion of the instrument panel. 
These items can become projectiles 
when the SRS driver, front passenger 
and knee airbags (if equipped) deploy. 
● Vehicles with SRS side and curtain 
shield airbags: Do not attach anything 
to areas such as a door, windshield 
glass, side door glass, front or rear pil-
lar, roof side rail and assist grip.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions 
● Vehicles with SRS side and curtain shield airbags: Do not hang coat hang- 
ers or other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of these items could
become projectiles and may cause death or serious injury, should the SRS 
curtain shield airbags deploy. 
● Vehicles with SRS driver’s knee airbag: If the vinyl cover is put on the area 
where the SRS knee airbag will deploy, be sure to remove it. 
● Vehicles with SRS side and curtain shield airbags: Do not use seat acces- 
sories which cover the parts where the SRS side airbags inflate as they
may interfere with inflation of the airbags. Such accessories may prevent 
the side airbags from activating correctly, disable the system or cause the 
side airbags to inflate accidentally, resulting in death or serious injury. 
● Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS air- 
bag components.  
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction. 
● Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS air- 
bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot. 
● If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbags have deployed, open a 
door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do 
so. Wash off any residue as soon as possible to prevent skin irritation.  
● Vehicles with SRS side and curtain shield airbags: If the areas where the 
SRS airbags are stored, such as  the steering wheel pad and front and rear 
pillar garnishes, are damaged or cr acked, have them replaced by any 
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer. 
● Vehicles without SRS side and curtain shield airbags: If the areas where 
the SRS airbags are stored, such as  the steering wheel pad, are damaged 
or cracked, have them replaced by any authorized Toyota retailer or 
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. 
● Vehicles with front passenger occupant classification system: Do not place 
anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat. Doing so will 
disperse the passenger’s weight, which prevents the sensor from detect- 
ing the passenger’s weight properly. As a result, the SRS front airbags for
the front passenger may not deploy in the event of a collision.
● Vehicles without smart entry & start sys- 
tem: Do not attach any heavy, sharp or 
hard objects such as keys or accesso-
ries to the key. The objects may restrict 
the SRS knee airbag (if equipped) infla- 
tion or be thrust into the driver’s seat
area by the force of the deploying air- 
bag, thus causing a danger.
