WARNING
■When children are in the vehicle
Do  not  allow  children  to  play  with  the  seat  belt.  If  the  seat  belt  becomes
twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries
that could result in death. 
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used
to cut the belt.
■ Seat belt pretensioners (front seats)
●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  detecting  the  passenger’s  weight  properly.  As  a  result,  the  seat  belt
pretensioner for the front passenger’s seat may not activate in the event of
a collision.
● If  the  pretensioner  has  activated,  the  SRS  warning  light  will  come  on.  In
that  case,  the  seat  belt  cannot  be  used  again  and  must  be  replaced  at
your Toyota dealer.
■ Adjustable shoulder an chor (front and second outside Tip-up seats)
Always make sure the shoulder belt is positioned across the center of your
shoulder.  The  belt  should  be  kept  away  from  your  neck,  but  not  falling  off
your shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce the amount of protection in an
accident and cause death or serious injuries in the event of a sudden stop,
sudden swerve or accident. ( P. 31)
■ Seat belt damage and wear
●Do  not  damage  the  seat  belts  by  allowing  the  belt,  plate,  or  buckle  to  be
jammed in the door.
● Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose
parts.  Do  not  use  a  damaged  seat  belt  until  it  is  replaced.  Damaged  seat
belts cannot protect an occupant from death or serious injury.
● Ensure that the belt and plate are locked and the belt is not twisted.
If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact your Toyota
dealer.
● Replace  the  seat  assembly,  including  the  belts,  if  your  vehicle  has  been
involved in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage.
● Do  not  attempt  to  install,  remove,  modify,  disassemble  or  dispose  of  the
seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Toyota dealer.
Inappropriate handling may lead to incorrect operation.

For safety and security
Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed based
on  the  US  motor  vehicle  safety  standards  (FMVSS208).  The  airbag
sensor  assembly  (ECU)  controls  airbag  deployment  based  on  infor-
mation  obtained  from  the  sensors  et c.  shown  in  the  system  compo-
nents  diagram  above.  This  informat ion  includes  crash  severity  and
occupant  information.  As  the  airbags  deploy,  a  chemical  reaction  in
the inflators quickly fills the airbag s with non-toxic gas to help restrain
the motion of the occupants.
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 devices 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.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) advises:
Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 2 - 3 in. (50 - 75 mm)
of  inflation,  placing  yourself  10  in.  (250  mm)  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 10
in.  (250  mm)  away  now,  you  can  change  your  driving  position  in  several
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 10 in. (250
mm)  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  by  NHTSA  above,  while
still  maintaining  control  of  the  foot  pedals,  steering  wheel,  and  your  view
of the instrument panel controls.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
●Do  not  hang  coat  hangers  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.
● If  a  vinyl  cover  is  put  on the  area  where  the SRS  knee  airbag  will  deploy,
be sure to remove it.
● Do  not  use  seat  accessories  which  cover  the  parts  where  the  SRS  side
airbags  and  SRS  seat  cushion  airbag  inflate  as  they  may  interfere  with
inflation  of  the  SRS  airbags.  Such  accessories  may  prevent  the  side  air-
bags and seat cushion airbag from activating correctly, disable the system
or  cause  the  side  airbags  and  seat  cushion  airbag  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. 
● If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel
pad  and  front  and  rear  pillar  garnishes,  are  damaged  or  cracked,  have
them replaced by your Toyota dealer.
● 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 detecting 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.

NOTICE
■Sliding door
■ To prevent damage to your vehicle
●Vehicles with the power sliding door: 
• Do not apply excessive force when the sliding door is operating.
• Do not place your hand or foot near door hinges or rollers when the slid-
ing door is operating.
• Avoid  forcibly  opening  the  left  side  sliding  door  fully  when  the  fuel  filler door is opened. Otherwise, the fuel filler door may be damaged.
• Take care not to damage the sensors (installed on the front edge of the power sliding door) with a knife or other sharp object.
● Make sure there is nothing in the doorway before closing.
● Do not close the sliding door by applying the brakes. Doing so could cause
the sliding door to be damaged.
Make  sure  magazines  are  not  bent  or
protruding  from  the  sliding  door  pockets.
Do not insert anything too big so that the
shape  of  the  sliding  door  pockets  is  dis-
torted.  Such  objects  may  obstruct  the
opening/closing  of  the  sliding  doors,
damage  the  sliding  door  pockets  or  the
vehicle  body,  and  may  result  in  a  mal-
function.
