WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
● Do not hang coat hangers or other hard objects on the coat hook s. All of
these items could become projectiles and may cause death or ser ious
injury, should the SRS curtain shield airbags deploy.
● 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

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
● If a vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS knee airbag w ill deploy,
be sure to remove it.
● 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 or the front doors.
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction.
● 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 airbags have deplo yed, 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 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 passenge r's seat.
Doing so will disperse the passenger's weight, which prevents t he sensor
from detecting the passenger's weight properly. As a result, th e SRS front
airbags for the front passenger may not deploy in the event of a collision.

● Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover an d inflator) as
well as the front seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side rails,
may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.

■Unoccupied
■There is a malfunction in the system
*1: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller
adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may not recognize
him/her as an adult depending on his/her physique and posture.
*2: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt.
*3: In the event the front passenger does not wear a seat belt.
*4: For some children, child in seat, child in booster seat or chi ld in convert-
ible seat, the system may not recognize him/her as a child. Fac tors
which may affect this can be the physique or posture.
*5: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat. A forward-facing child restraint system should only be installed on
the front passenger seat when it is unavoidable. ( P. 54)
*6: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this m anual on how
to install the child restraint system properly. ( P. 56)
