Before driving WARNING■ SRS airbag precautions
● 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”) ad vises:
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 measu red from the
center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit les s than 10 in.
(250 mm) away now, you can change your driving position in seve ral
ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the
pedals comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle design s vary,
many drivers can achieve the 10 in. (250 mm) distance, even wit h the
driver seat all the way forward, simply by reclining the back o f the seat
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to s ee 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 p oints the air-
bag toward your chest instead of your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as recommended by NHTSA above, whil e
still maintaining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, a nd your view of
the instrument panel controls.
● The SRS front passenger airbag al so deploys with considerable f orce, and
can cause death or serious injury especially if the front passe nger is very
close to the airbag. The front passenger seat should be as far from the air-
bag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the front passen ger sits
upright.
● Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or
seriously injured by a deploying airbag. An infant or child who is too small
to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child res traint sys-
tem. Toyota strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in
the rear seats of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are
safer for infants and children than the front passenger seat. (  P. 137)

1221-7. Safety information
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.

Before driving WARNING■ SRS airbag precautions
● Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side
airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the air bags. Such
accessories may prevent the side airbags from activating correc tly, disable
the system or cause the side airbags to inflate accidentally, r esulting in
death or serious injury.
● Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS air-
bag components (  P. 94).
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction. ● 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 or steering wheel pad.
These items can become projectiles
when SRS driver and front passenger
airbags deploy.
● Do not attach anything to areas such as
a door, windshield glass, side door
glass, rear quarter glass, front and rear
pillar or roof side rail.

1241-7. Safety information
WARNING■ SRS airbag precautions
● Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the S RS air-
bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.
● If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbag has deploye d, open a
door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if i t is safe to do
so. Wash off any residue as soon as possible to prevent skin ir ritation.
● If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the stee ring wheel
pad and front and rear pillar garnishes, are damaged or cracked, have
them replaced by your Toyota dealer.
■ Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or perform any of the following modifications
without consulting your Toyota dealer.
The SRS airbags may malfunction or deploy (inflate) accidentall y, causing
death or serious injury.
● Installation, removal, disassem bly and repair of the SRS airbag s.
● 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.
● Modifications to the vehicle's suspension system.
● Installation of electronic devices such as mobile two-way radio s and CD
players.
● Modifications to your vehicle for a person with a physical disa bility.

minating for approximately 6
seconds when the engine switch
is turned to the “ON” position
(vehicles without a smart key
system), or the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch is turned to IGNI-
TION ON mode (vehicles with a
smart key system).
The following components are mo nitored by the indicator:
● Front sub sensor (right-hand side)
● Front sub sensor (left-hand side)
● Airbag control module (including impact sensors and rollover se n-
sors)

Before driving WARNING■ SRS warning light
If the warning light exhibits any of the following conditions, there may be a
malfunction in the seat belt pretensioners, SRS airbag system a nd/or front
passenger occupant classification system. Immediately take your vehicle to
your nearest Toyota dealer to have the system checked. Unless c hecked
and properly repaired, the seat belt pretensioners, SRS airbag and/or front
passenger occupant classification system will not operate prope rly in the
event of a collision, which may increase the risk of death or s erious injury.
● Flashing or flickering of the warning light
● No illumination of the warning light when the engine switch is first turned to
the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart key system), or the “ENGINE
START STOP” switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a
smart key system).
● Continuous illumination of the warning light
● Illumination of the warning light while driving

1281-7. Safety information
Front passenger occupant cl assification systemYour vehicle is equipped with a front passenger occupant classifica-
tion system. Using the sensors installed under the seat cover, the
system detects the conditions of the front passenger seat and acti-
vates or deactivates the frontal airbag for front passenger sea t. The
occupant classification system m ay not inflate the front passen ger’s
SRS frontal airbag even when the driver’s SRS frontal airbag
deploys. This is not a malfuncti on. If the seat belt buckle swi tch and/
or front passenger’s occupant classification system have failed , the
SRS warning light will illuminate. Have the system inspected by your
Toyota dealer immediately if the SRS warning light illuminates.
If your vehicle has sustained im pact, this may affect the prope r func-
tion of the Toyota advanced frontal airbag system. Immediately con-
tact your Toyota dealer and have your vehicle inspected. Do not use
the front passenger seat while drivi ng to your Toyota dealer.
