The  SRS  airbag  and  seat  belt  pretensioner  devices  in  your  Toyota  contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners  left  as  they  are,  this  may  cause  an  accident  such  as  fire.  Be
sure  to  have  the  systems  of  the  SRS  airbag  and  seat  belt  pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Toyota dealer
before you scrap your vehicle.
Special handling may apply, 
See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate. 
Your  vehicle  has  components  that  may  contain  perchlorate.  These  compo-
nents  may  include  airbag,  seat  belt  pretensioners,  and  wireless  remote  con-
trol batteries.

WARNING
■General precautions while driving
Driving under the  influence:  Never drive  your vehicle when  under  the  influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi-
cle.  Alcohol  and  certain  drugs  delay   reaction  time,  impair  judgment  and
reduce  coordination,  which  could  lead  to  an  accident  that  could  result  in
death or serious injury.
Defensive  driving:  Always  drive  defensively.  Anticipate  mistakes  that  other
drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver  distraction:  Always  give  your  full  attention  to  driving.  Anything  that
distracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regard ing children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to
have or use the key.
Children  may  be  able  to  start  the  vehicle  or  shift  the  vehicle  into  neutral.
There is also a  danger that  children  may  injure  themselves  by playing with
the  cigarette  lighter,  the  windows,  the  moon  roof,  or  other  features  of  the
vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the
vehicle can be fatal to children.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
●Do  not  sit  on  the  edge  of  the  seat  or
lean against the dashboard.
● Do  not  allow  a  child  to  stand  in  front  of
the  SRS  front  passenger  airbag  unit  or
sit on the knees of a front passenger.
● Do not allow the front seat occupants to
hold items on their knees.
● Do  not  lean  against  the  door,  the  roof
side  rail  or  the  front,  side  and  rear  pil-
lars.
● Do  not  allow  anyone  to  kneel  on  the
passenger  seat  toward  the  door  or  put
their head or hands outside the vehicle.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
●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 driver’s knee airbags deploy.
● Do not attach anything to areas such as
a  door,  windshield  glass,  side  door
glass,  front  or  rear  pillar,  roof  side  rail
and assist grip.
● Vehicles  without  a  smart  key  system:
Do  not  attach  any  heavy,  sharp  or  hard
objects  such  as  keys  and  accessories
to  the  key.  The  objects  may  restrict  the
SRS  knee  airbag  inflation  or  be  thrust
into  the  driver’s  seat  area  by  the  force
of  the  deploying  airbag,  thus  causing  a
danger.

WARNING
■Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per form any of the following modifications
without consulting your Toyota dealer. 
The  SRS  airbags  may  malfunction  or  deploy  (inflate)  accidentally,  causing
death or serious injury.
● Installation, removal, disassembly and repair of the SRS airbags
● Repairs,  modifications,  removal  or  replacement  of  the  steering  wheel,
instrument panel, dashboard, seats or seat upholstery, front, side and rear
pillars or roof side rails
● Repairs  or  modifications  of  the  front  fender,  front  bumper,  or  side  of  the
occupant compartment
● Installation  of  a  grille  guard  (bull  bars,  kangaroo  bar,  etc.),  snow  plows,
winches or roof luggage carrier
● Modifications to the vehicle’s suspension system
● Installation  of  electronic  devices  such  as  mobile  two-way  radios  and  CD
players
● Modifications to your vehicle for a person with a physical disability

For safety and security
■If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
●Slight  abrasions,  burns,  bruising  etc.,  may  be  sustained  from  SRS  airbags,
due to the extremely high speed deployment (inflation) by hot gases.
● Bruising  and  slight  abrasions  may  result  from  contact  with  a  deploying
(inflating) SRS airbag.
● A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
● Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as
well  as  the  front  seats,  parts  of  the  front  and  rear  pillars,  and  roof  side  rail,
may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.
● The windshield may crack.
● For Safety Connect subscribers, if the SRS airbags deploy or in the event of
a  severe  rear-end  collision,  the  system  is  designed  to  send  an  emergency
call  to  the  response  center,  notifying  them  of  the  vehicle’s  location  (without
needing  to  push  the  “SOS”  button)  and  an  agent  will  attempt  to  speak  with
the occupants to ascertain the level of emergency and assistance required.
If the  occupants  are  unable to  communicate,  the agent  automatically treats
the  call  as  an  emergency  and  helps  to  dispatch  the  necessary  emergency
services. ( P. 461)
■ SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the
set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approximately 12 -
18 mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or
deform).
However,  this  threshold  velocity  will  be  considerably  higher  in  the  following
situations: • If  the  vehicle  strikes  an  object,  such  as  a  parked  vehicle  or  sign  pole, which can move or deform on impact
• If  the  vehicle  is  involved  in  an  underride  collision,  such  as  a  collision  in which  the  front  of  the  vehicle  “underrides”,  or  goes  under,  the  bed  of  a
truck
● Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt pre-
tensioners will activate.
● The SRS front airbags for the front pass enger will not activate if there is no
passenger  sitting  in  the  front  passenger  seat.  However,  the  SRS  front  air-
bags for the front passenger may deploy if luggage is put in the seat, even if
the seat is unoccupied. ( P. 50)
● The SRS seat cushion airbag on the front passenger’s seat will not operate
if the occupant is not wearing a seat belt.
