The front passenger’s seat belt warning buzzer sounds to alert the front
passenger that his or her seat belt is not fastened. The buzzer sounds
once if the vehicle reaches a speed of 12 mph (20 km/h). If the seat belt is
still unfastened after 24 seconds, the buzzer will sound intermittently for 6
seconds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfastened, the buzzer will sound in a
different tone for 90 more seconds.
Rear passengers’ seat belt warning buzzer:
The rear passengers’ seat belt warning buzzer sounds to alert the rear
passengers that his or her seat belt is not fastened. If the vehicle reaches a
speed of 12 mph (20 km/h), the buzzer will sound intermittently for 6 sec-
onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfastened, the buzzer will sound in a dif-
ferent tone for 24 more seconds.

drops, the electric power steering system warning light may come on and \
the
warning buzzer may sound.
■ If the malfunction indicator la mp comes on while driving
For some models, the malfunction indicator lamp will come on if the fuel tank
becomes completely empty. If the fuel tank is empty, refuel the vehicle imme-
diately. The malfunction indicator lamp will go off after several trips.
If the malfunction indicator lamp does not go off, contact your Toyota dealer.

sound even if a passenger is not sitting in the seat.
● If a cushion is placed on the seat, the sensor may not detect a passenger,
and the warning light may not operate properly.

Votre véhicule est équipé de COUSSINS GONFLABLES
INTELLIGENTS (ADVANCED AIRBAGS) conçus selon les normes de
sécurité américaines applic ables aux véhicules à moteur
(FMVSS208). Le boîtier électronique de coussins gonflables (ECU)
utilise les informations reçues des capteurs, etc. détaillés dans le
schéma ci-dessus de composition du système pour commander le
déploiement des coussins gonflables. Ces informations comprennent
des informations sur la gravité de la collision et les occupants. Le
déploiement rapide des coussins gonflables est obtenu au moyen
d’une réaction chimique dans les dispositifs pyrotechniques, qui
produit un gaz inoffensif permetta nt d’amortir le mouvement des
occupants. Capteurs d’impact avant
