WARNING
■Do not modify a front door or l eave any damage unrepaired. Always
have your Toyota dealer ins pect a damaged front door
Modifying a front door or leaving any damage unrepaired is dang erous.
Each front door has a side crash sensor as a component of the supplemen-
tal restraint system. If holes are drilled in a front door, a door speaker is left
removed, or a damaged door is left unrepaired, the sensor could be
adversely affected causing it to not detect the pressure of an impact cor-
rectly during a side collision. If a sensor does not detect a s ide impact cor-
rectly, the side and curtain air bags and the front seat belt pretensioner may
not operate normally which could result in serious injury to oc cupants.
■ Do not modify the supplemental restraint system
Modifying the components or wiring of the supplemental restrain t system is
dangerous. You could accidentally activate it or make it inoper able. Do not
make any modifications to the supplemental restraint system. Th is includes
installing trim, badges, or anything else over the air bag modu les. It also
includes installing extra electrical equipment on or near syste m components
or wiring. Your Toyota dealer can provide the special care need ed in the
removal and installation of front seats. It is important to protect the air bag
wiring and connections to assure that the bags do not accidenta lly deploy,
and that the front passenger occupant classification system and the seats
retain an undamaged air bag connection.
■ Do not place luggage or other objects under the front seats
Placing luggage or other objects under the front seats is dange rous. The
components essential to the supplemental restraint system could be dam-
aged, and in the event of a side collision, the appropriate air bags may not
deploy, which could result in death or serious injury. To preve nt damage to
the components essential to the supplemental restraint system, do not
place luggage or other objects under the front seats.
■ Do not operate a vehicle with damaged air bag/seat belt pretens ioner
system components
Expended or damaged air bag/seat belt pretensioner system components
must be replaced after any collision which caused them to deplo y or dam-
age them. Only a trained Authorized Toyota Dealer can fully eva luate these
systems to see that they will work in any subsequent accident. Driving with
an expended or damaged air bag or pretensioner unit will not afford you the
necessary protection in the event of any subsequent accident wh ich could
result in serious injury or death.

WARNING
■Do not remove interior air bag parts
Removing any components such as the front seats, front dashboar d, the
steering wheel or parts on the front and rear window pillars an d along the
roof edge, containing air bag parts or sensors is dangerous. Th ese parts

vate and cause serious injuries. Always have your Toyota dealer remove
these parts.
■ Properly dispose of the air bag system
Improper disposal of an air bag or a vehicle with live air bags in it can be
extremely dangerous. Unless all safety procedures are followed, injury
could result. Have your Toyota dealer safely dispose of the air bag system

■Leather
●Because genuine leather is a natural material, its surface is n ot uniform and
it may have natural scars, scratches, and wrinkles.
● To maintain the quality for as long as possible, periodical maintenance,
about twice a year, is recommended.
NOTICE
■Leather
● Sand and dust on the seat surface may damage the overcoat of the genu-
ine leather surfaces and accelerate wear.
● Greasy soiling on genuine leather may cause molding and stains.
● Rubbing hard with a stiff brush or cloth may cause damage.
● Do not wipe the leather using alcohol, chlorine bleach, or orga nic solvents
such as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise, it may cause discolor-
ation or stains.
● If the seats get wet, promptly remove moisture with a dry cloth. Remaining
moisture on the surface may cause deterioration such as hardeni ng and
shrinkage.
● Exposure to direct sunlight for long periods may cause deterior ation and
shrinkage. When parking the car under direct sunlight for long periods,
shade the interior using sunshades.
● Do not leave vinyl products on the seats for long periods as they may
affect the leather quality and coloring. If the cabin temperatu re becomes
hot, the vinyl may deteriorate and adhere to the genuine leathe r.
■ Fabric
Use only recommended cleaners and procedures. Others may affect
appearance and fire-resistance.
■ Panel
● Do not wipe leather parts using alcohol, chlorine bleach, or or ganic sol-
vents such as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise, it may cause dis-
coloration or stains.
● Scratches or nicks on the panels and metallic trim resulting from the use of
a hard brush or cloth may not be repairable.
● Be particularly careful when cleaning high lustre panels and me tallic trim
as they can be easily scratched.
