■Wearing a seat belt
●Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
●Always wear a seat belt properly.
●Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt for more than one person at
once, including children.
●Toyota recommends that children
be seated in the rear seat and always use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
●To achieve a proper seating posi-tion, do not recline the seat more
than necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting up straight and well back
in the seats.
●Do not wear the shoulder belt under
your arm.
●Always wear your seat belt low and
snug across your hips.

■Pregnant women
Obtain medical advice and wear the
seat belt in the proper way. ( P.33)
Women who are pregnant should
position the lap belt as low as possi- ble over the hips in the same manner as other occupants, extending the
shoulder belt completely over the shoulder and avoiding belt contact with the rounding of the abdominal
area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not only the pregnant woman, but
also the fetus could suffer death or serious injury as a result of sudden braking or a collision.
■People suffering illness
Obtain medical advice and wear the
seat belt in the proper way. ( P.33)
■When children are in the vehicle

■Seat belt damage and wear
●Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be jammed in the door.
●Inspect the seat belt system period-ically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose parts. Do not use a damaged
seat belt until it is replaced. Dam- aged seat belts cannot protect an occupant from death or serious
injury.
●Ensure that the belt and plate are
locked and the belt is not twisted. If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Replace the seat assembly, includ-ing the belts, if your vehicle has
been involved in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage.
●Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the seat belts. Have any necessary
repairs carried out by any autho- rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer. Inappropriate handling may lead to incorrect operation.

possible over the hips.
 Adjust the position of the seat-
back. Sit up straight and well
back in the seat.
 Do not twist the seat belt.
■Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle were prin- cipally designed for persons of adult size.
●Use a child restraint system appropri-ate for the child, until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. ( P. 4 8 )
●When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt, follow the instructions
regarding seat belt usage. ( P. 3 2 )
■Seat belt regulations
If seat belt regulations exist in the coun- try where you reside, please contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for seat belt replacement or
installation.
1 To fasten the seat belt, push the
plate into the buckle until a click
sound is heard.
2 To release the seat belt, press
the release button .
■Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also
lock if you lean forward too quickly. When the seat belt locks, pull the belt strongly and then release the belt, then
a slow and easy pulling will allow the belt to extend.
The pretensioners help the seat
belts to quickly restrain the occu-
pants by retracting the seat belts
when the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal or
side collision.
The pretensioners do not activate in the
event of a minor frontal impact, a minor
side impact, a rear impact or a vehicle
rollover.
■Replacing the belt after the preten- sioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple colli- sions, the pretensioner will activate for the first collision, but will not activate for
the second or subsequent collisions.

toxic gas to help restrain the motion of the occupants.
■If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
●Slight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may be sustained from SRS airbags,
due to the extremely high speed deployment (inflation) by hot gases.
●A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
●Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and 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.
●The windshield may crack.
●The brakes and stop lights will be con-trolled automatically. ( P.212)
●The interior lights will turn on automat- ically. ( P.231)
●The emergency flashers will turn on automatically. ( P.296)
●Fuel supply to the engine will be stopped. ( P.303)
●Vehicles with eCall: If any of the fol-
lowing situations occur, the system is
designed to send an emergency call*
to the eCall control center, notifying them of the vehicle’s location (without needing to push the “SOS” button)
and an agent will attempt to speak with the occupants to ascertain the
level of emergency and assistance required. If the occupants are unable to communicate, the agent automati-
cally treats the call as an emergency and helps to dispatch the necessary emergency services. ( P.64)
• An SRS airbag is deployed. • A seat belt pretensioner is activated.• The vehicle is involved in a severe
rear-end collision.*: In some cases, the call cannot be
made. ( P. 6 5 )
■SRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy in
the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approxi-
mately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following situ-
ations: • If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole,
which can move or deform on impact • If the vehicle is involved in an under-ride collision, such as a collision in
which the front of the vehicle “under- rides”, or goes under, the bed of a truck
●Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt preten-
sioners will activate.
■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side and curtain shield air-bags)
●The SRS side and curtain shield air-bags will deploy in the event of an
impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to the impact force produced by an
approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehi- cle colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the
vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph]).
●Both SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy in the event of a severe frontal collision.
■Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other than a collision
The SRS front airbags and SRS side and curtain shield airbags may also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the
underside of your vehicle. Some exam- ples are shown in the illustration.
