This chapter describes all standard,
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series.
It may therefore describe equip-
ment and functions which are not
installed in your vehicle, for exam-
ple on account of the optional
equipment selected or the country
specification. This also applies to
safety-relevant functions and sys-
tems. Please comply with the rele-
vant laws and regulations when
using the corresponding functions
and systems.
The light switch element is located
next to the steering wheel.Depending on the ambient bright-
ness, the system switches the
low-beam headlights on or off auto-
matically, for example in a tunnel, at
twilight and in rain or snow.

Variable light distribution enables
even better illumination of the car-
riageway.
The light distribution is automati-
cally adapted to the speed.
If equipment includes a navigation system, the light distribution is
automatically adapted depending
on the navigation data and speed.
The illuminated area of the
low-beam headlights is extended at
the sides.
The illumination width of the
low-beam headlights is expanded.
In sharp turns up to a specified
speed, for example in hairpin bends
or when turning off, a cornering
light is added to illuminate the
inside area of the bend.
The cornering light is activated
automatically depending on the
steering angle or use of the turn
indicators.
The cornering light may be acti-
vated automatically when driving in
reverse, irrespective of the steer-
ing angle.
Automatic high-beam detects other
road users in good time and acti-
vates or deactivates the high beam
depending on the traffic situation.

In a side-on crash, the side airbag
supports the body from the side in
the chest, pelvic and head area.
The knee airbag supports the legs
in the event of a head-on collision.
The curtain shield airbag supports
the head in the event of a side-on
crash.
Airbags are not activated in every
collision, for example in minor acci-
dents and rear-end collisions.
Keep your distance from the
airbags.Always grip the steering wheel
on the steering wheel rim. Place
your hands in the 3 o'clock and 9
o'clock positions to minimise the
risk of injury to hands or arms
when the airbag deploys.
Make sure that the front-seat
passenger is sitting correctly, in
other words with feet or legs in
the footwell, not resting on the
dashboard.
Make sure that vehicle occu-
pants keep their head away from
the side airbag.
Do not position any other per-
sons, pets or objects between
the airbags and persons.
Keep the dashboard and wind-
screen in the area of the passen-
ger's side free, for example do
not attach adhesive foil or covers
and do not fit brackets for navi-
gation devices or mobile tele-
phones.
Do not attach anything to the
airbag covers with adhesive;
never cover them or modify them
in any way.
Do not use the front airbag cover
on the front passenger's side as
a tray.
Covers, seat covers, cushions or
other objects not specifically suit-
able for seats with integral side
airbags must not be fitted to the

General
Notes on achieving optimum
airbag effectiveness
WARNING
If the seat position is wrong or the
deployment area of the airbag is
restricted, the airbag system cannot
provide the intended protection or
may cause additional injuries when it
deploys. There is a danger of injury or
even death. Observe the following to
achieve optimum protective effect.

example coats or jackets over
the backrests.
Do not modify individual compo-
nents of the system or its wiring
in any way. This also applies to
the covers of the steering wheel,
the dashboard and seats.
Do not dismantle the airbag sys-
tem.
Even if all this information is
observed, depending on the cir-
cumstances in which an accident
occurs, certain injuries as a result
of contact with the airbag cannot be
entirely ruled out.
The noise caused by the deploy-
ment of an airbag may lead to tem-
porary hearing loss for vehicle
occupants sensitive to noise.
Have the system checked.
The airbags are not designed to be
used in place of the seat belts.
The SRS front airbags and SRS
knee airbags are designed to sup-
plement the seat belts, not be used
in place of them, to increase their Operational readiness of the
airbag system
Safety notes
WARNING
Individual components of the airbag
system may be hot after airbag
deployment. There is a danger of
injury. Do not touch individual compo-
nents.
WARNING
Work carried out incorrectly can lead
to a failure, a malfunction or acciden-
tal deployment of the airbag system. If
there is a malfunction, the airbag sys-
tem might not deploy as intended in
an accident, in spite of the accident
being of the appropriate severity.
There is a danger of injury or even
death. Have the airbag system tested,
repaired or removed and disposed of
by any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
Display in the instrument cluster
When drive-ready state is
switched on, the warning
lamp in the instrument cluster
briefly illuminates in order to
show the operational readi-
ness of the entire airbag sys-
tem and the belt tensioners.

effectiveness as an occupant pro-
tection device.
SRS is an acronym for Supplemental
Restraint System
In the event of a collision, the seat
belts restrain the occupants in their
seats, but if the impact of the colli-
sion is especially severe, there is
danger of an occupant’s head and
chest contacting the steering
wheel, dashboard and windshield.
In this case, the SRS front airbags
and SRS knee airbags deploy
(inflate), instantly creating an air
cushion to help reduce the impact
on the occupants and restrain them
from contacting the steering wheel,
etc. with their head, chest and
knees.
The SRS front air bags and SRS
knee airbags deploy only when an
impact exceeding a certain thresh-
old is detected. In a collision, even
if the impact is severe enough to
cause the vehicle body to deform,
the SRS airbags may not deploy if
the impact of the collision is suffi-
ciently dispersed by the crash
structures of the vehicle body. If the
force of the collision does not cause
the airbags to deploy, the seatbelts
will protect the occupants.
When an airbag deploys, as it will
inflate nearly instantly, it may
impact an occupant and cause an
injury, or the loud noise emitted by
ignition or deployment may cause
temporary partial loss of hearing. Also, as an airbag and nearby parts
will be extremely hot after the
airbag deploys, touching them may
cause burns. For these reasons,
deployment of the airbags is not
entirely risk free. Therefore, in
order to reduce this risk, the
airbags are designed to only deploy
when additional reduction of the
impact applied to the occupants in
a collision is necessary.
WARNING
Wear the seatbelt correctly and sit
with the correct posture.
If you sit with your head too close to
the steering wheel, when the SRS
front airbag deploys, it may apply a
very large impact to your body. Sit in
the driver’s seat with the correct pos-
ture and keep an appropriate distance
away from the steering wheel.

WARNING
Do not position the passenger’s seat
too close to the dashboard or rest
your feet on the dashboard, as doing
so may lead to a serious injury if the
SRS airbags deploy. Sit in the pas-
senger’s seat with the correct posture
and keep an appropriate distance
away from the dashboard.
WARNING
Do not attach anything to or lean any-
thing against areas near the SRS
airbags.
Do not install or attach anything, such
as a sticker to areas such as the
steering wheel pad and near the SRS
knee airbags. Also, do not attach any
accessories, such as an air freshener,
to the passenger’s side instrument
panel or place anything on the floor in
front of the seat. If anything is
attached to or left in these areas, they
may prevent an airbag from deploying
or become a projectile when the
airbags deploy.

requires that the brake pedal is
depressed sufficiently quickly and
firmly beforehand.
The system can also assist by brak-
ing the vehicle automatically if there
is a risk of a collision.
At low speeds, the vehicle can be
braked to a stop.
City braking function: brake inter-
vention takes place at up to approx.
85 km/h, 53 mph.
With radar sensor: brake interven-
tion takes place at up to approx.
250 km/h, 155 mph.
At speeds above approx. 210 km/h,
130 mph, the braking intervention
takes the form of a brief jolt. There
is no automatic deceleration.
The brakes are only applied if driv-
ing stability has not been impaired,
for example by deactivation of Vehi-
cle Stability Control VSC.
Braking can be discontinued either
by depressing the accelerator pedal
or by actively moving the steering
wheel.
The detection of objects may be
limited. Take into account the
detection range limits and the func-
tional limitations.The detection ability of the system
is limited.
Only objects detected by the sys-
tem are taken into account.
For this reason, the system may fail
to respond or only respond after a
delay.
It is possible that the following are
not detected, for example:
Slow-moving vehicle when
approaching it at high speed.
Vehicles suddenly cutting in or
braking heavily.
Vehicles with an unusual rear System limits
