Driver’s SRS side airbag
Front passenger’s SRS side
airbag
SRS curtain shield airbag
(right-hand side)
SRS curtain shield airbag
(left-hand side)
Therefore, they may not both
deploy in the same accident.
Also, the SRS side airbag and
SRS curtain shield airbag
deploys independently of the
driver’s and front passenger’s
SRS frontal airbags in the steer-
ing wheel and instrument panel.
For the locations of the sensors
and control modules, refer to
P.27.
■After deployment
After the deployment, the SRS
side airbag immediately starts to
deflate. The time required from
detection of an impact to defla-
tion of an SRS side airbag after
deployment is shorter than the
blink of an eye.
The SRS curtain shield airbag
remains inflated for a while fol-
lowing deployment then slowly
deflates.
The SRS side airbag and SRS
curtain shield airbag deploy
even when no one occupies the
seat on the side on which an
impact is applied.
When the SRS side airbag and SRS curtain shield airbag
deploy, a sudden, fairly loud
inflation noise will be heard and
some smoke will be released.
These occurrences are a normal
result of the deployment. This
smoke does not indicate a fire in
the vehicle.
■Example of the type of acci-
dent
The SRS side airbag and SRS
curtain shield airbag are
designed as follows:
To deploy in the event of an
accident involving a moderate
to severe side impact collision
To function on a one-time-only
basis.
The SRS side airbag and SRS
curtain shield airbag are not
designed to deploy in the follow-
ing cases:
In most lesser side impact
In most frontal or most rear
impacts (because the SRS
side airbag and SRS curtain
shield airbag deployment
would not protect the occu-
pant in those situations)
The SRS curtain shield airbags
are also designed to deploy
when the vehicle is in an
extremely inclined state such as
during a rollover. They are not
designed to deploy in most
lesser inclined states.

tact with, or is covered by the fol-
lowing metallic objects
• Cards to which al uminum foil is

• Cigarette boxes that have alumi- num foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags

emit radio waves) are being used

●When carrying the electronic key

that emit radio waves
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or
a wireless key that emits radio
waves
• Personal computers or personal
digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
●If window tint with a metallic con-
tent or metallic objects are
attached to the rear window
●When the electronic key is placed
near a battery charger or elec-
tronic devices
■Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is
within the effective range (detec-
tion areas), the system may not
operate properly in the following
cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door han-
dle, near the ground, or in a high
place when the doors are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is near the ground or in a high place, or too
close to the rear bumper center
when the trunk is unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instru-
ment panel, rear package tray or
floor, or in the door pockets or
glove box when the engine is
started or engine switch modes
are changed.
●Do not leave the electronic key on
top of the instrument panel or near
the door pockets when exiting the
vehicle. Depending on the radio
wave reception conditions, it may
be detected by the antenna out-
side the cabin and the doors will
become lockable from the outside,
possibly trapping the electronic
key inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electronic key is
within the effective range, the
doors may be locked or unlocked
by anyone. However, only the
doors detecting the electronic key
can be used to unlock the vehicle.
●Even if the electro nic key is not
inside the vehicle, it may be possi-
ble to start the engine if the elec-
tronic key is near the window.
●The doors may unlock or lock if a
large amount of water splashes on
the door handle, such as in the
rain or in a car wash, when the
electronic key is within the effec-
tive range. (The doors will auto-
matically be locked after
approximately 60 seconds if the
doors are not opened and closed.)
●If the wireless remote control is
used to lock the doors when the
electronic key is near the vehicle,
there is a possib ility that the door
may not be unlocked by the entry
function. (Use the wireless remote
control to unlock the doors.)
●Touching the door lock or unlock
sensor while wearing gloves may
prevent lock or unlock operation.

Driving
WARNING
■When the vehicle is parked
●Do not leave glasses, cigarette
lighters, spray cans, or soft
drink cans in the vehicle when it
is in the sun.
Doing so may result in the fol-
lowing:
• Gas may leak from a cigarette lighter or spray can, and may
lead to a fire.
• The temperature inside the vehicle may cause the plastic
lenses and plastic material of
glasses to deform or crack.
• Soft drink cans may fracture, causing the contents to spray
over the interior of the vehicle,
and may also caus e a short cir-
cuit in the vehicle’s electrical
components.
●Do not leave cigarette lighters in
the vehicle. If a cigarette lighter
is in a place such as the glove
box or on the floor, it may be lit
accidentally when luggage is
loaded or the seat is adjusted,
causing a fire.
●Do not attach adhesive discs to
the windshield or windows. Do
not place containers such as air
fresheners on the instrument
panel or dashboard. Adhesive
discs or containers may act as
lenses, causing a fire in the
vehicle.
●Do not leave a door or window
open if the curved glass is
coated with a metallized film
such as a silver-colored one.
Reflected sunlight may cause
the glass to act as a lens, caus-
ing a fire.
●Always apply the parking brake,
shift the shift lever to P (vehicles
with an automatic transmission),
stop the engine and lock the
vehicle.
Do not leave the vehicle unat-
tended while the engine is run-
ning.
If the vehicle is parked with the
shift lever in P but the parking
brake is not set, the vehicle may
start to move, possibly leading
to an accident.
●Do not touch the exhaust pipes
while the engine is running or
immediately after turning the
engine off.
Doing so may cause burns.
■When taking a nap in the vehi-
cle
Always turn the engine off. Other-
wise, if you accidentally move the
shift lever or depress the acceler-
ator pedal, this could cause an
accident or fire due to engine
overheating. Additionally, if the
vehicle is parked in a poorly venti-
lated area, exhaust gases may
collect and enter the vehicle, lead-
ing to death or a serious health
hazard.
■When braking
●When the brakes are wet, drive
more cautiously.
Braking distance increases
when the brakes are wet, and
this may cause one side of the
vehicle to brake d ifferently than
the other side. Also, the parking
brake may not securely hold the
vehicle.

WARNING
■Things that must not be car-
ried in the trunk
The following things may cause a
fire if loaded in the trunk:
●Receptacles co ntaining gaso-
line
●Aerosol cans
■Storage precautions
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so m ay result in
death or serious injury.
●Stow cargo and luggage in the
trunk whenever possible.
●To prevent cargo and luggage
from sliding forward during
braking, do not stack anything in
the enlarged trunk. Keep cargo
and luggage low, as close to the
floor as possible.
●When you fold down the rear
seats, long items should not be
placed directly behind the front
seats.
●Never allow anyone to ride in
the enlarged trunk. It is not
designed for passengers. They
should ride in their seats with
their seat belts properly fas-
tened. Otherwise, they are
much more likely to suffer death
or serious bodily injury, in the
event of sudden braking, sud-
den swerving or an accident.
●Do not place cargo or luggage
in or on the follo wing locations
as the item may get under the
clutch (manual transmission),
brake or accelerator pedal and
prevent the pedals from being
depressed properly, block the
driver’s vision, or hit the driver
or passengers, causing an acci-
dent:
• At the feet of the driver
• On the front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• On the package tray
• On the instrument panel
• On the dashboard
●Secure all items in the occupant
compartment, as they may shift
and injure someone during sud-
den braking, sudden swerving
or an accident.
■Capacity and distribution
●Do not exceed the maximum
axle weight rating or the total
vehicle weight rating.
●Even if the total load of occu-
pant’s weight and the cargo
load is less than the total load
capacity, do not apply the load
unevenly. Improper loading may
cause deterioration of steering
or braking control which may
cause death or serious injury.
