The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer before
you scrap your vehicle.
Scrapping of your Toyota
WARNING
■ General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impair ed your ability to operate your vehi-
cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and
reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in
death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other
drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that
distracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regarding children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to
have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with
the cigarette lighter, the windows, the panoramic roof shade, or other fea-
tures of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely cold tempera-
tures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
● Vehicles with SRS curtain shield airbags: Do not hang coat hangers or
other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of these items could become pro-
jectiles and may cause death or serious injury, should the SRS curtain
shield airbags deploy.
● Vehicles with an SRS driver knee airbag: If a vinyl cover is put on the area
where the SRS driver knee airbag will 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 airbags. Such
accessories may prevent the side airbags from activating correctly, disable
the system or cause the side airbags to inflate accidentally, resulting in
death or serious injury.
● Vehicles without SRS curtain shield
airbags: Do not attach anything to areas
such as a door, windshield and side
window.
● Vehicles with SRS curtain shield
airbags: Do not attach anything to areas
such as a door, windshield, side win-
dow, front or rear pillar, roof side rail and
assist grip. (Except for the speed limit
label P. 602)
● Vehicles without a smart entry & start
system and with SRS driver’s knee
airbag: Do not attach any heavy, sharp
or hard objects such as keys and
accessories to the key. The objects may
restrict the SRS driver knee airbag infla-
tion or be thrust into the driver’s seat
area by the force of the deploying air-
bag, thus causing a danger.
