Airbag sensor assembly
The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The SRS air-
bag system is controlled by the airbag sensor assembly. As the airbags
deploy, a chemical reaction in the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-
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 EV system will be stopped. ( P. 9 0 )
●All of the doors will be unlocked. ( P.186)
●The brakes and stop lights will be con-
trolled automatically. ( P.406)
●The interior lights will turn on automat-
ically. ( P.432)
●The emergency flashers will turn on
automatically. ( P.506)
●If any of the following 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
automatically treats the call as an emergency and helps to dispatch the necessary emergency services.
( P. 6 5 ) • An SRS airbag is deployed.• A seat belt pretensioner is activated.
• The vehicle is involved in a severe rear-end collision.
■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 situations:
• 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 pretensioners will activate.
■SRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS side and curtain shield air- bags and SRS front seat center air-bag)
●The SRS side and curtain shield air-bags and SRS front seat center airbag
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 will deploy in the event of a side collision

For safety and security
The SRS curtain shield airbags do not
generally inflate if the vehicle is involved
in a rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is
involved in a low-speed side or low-
speed frontal collision.
●Collision from the rear
●Vehicle rollover
■When to contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer
In the following cases, the vehicle will require inspection and/or repair. Contact
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
●Any of the SRS airbags have been inflated.
●The front of the vehicle is damaged or deformed, or was involved in an acci-
dent that was not severe enough to cause the SRS front airbags to inflate.
●A portion of a door or its surrounding
area is damaged, deformed or has had a hole made in it, or the vehicle was involved in an accident that was
not severe enough to cause the SRS side and curtain shield airbags and SRS front seat center airbag to inflate.
●The pad section of the steering wheel or dashboard near the front passen-
ger airbag is scratched, cracked, or otherwise damaged.
●The surface of the seats with the SRS side airbag and SRS front seat center airbag is scratched, cracked, or other-
wise damaged.
●The portion of the front pillars, rear pil-
lars or roof side rail garnishes (pad- ding) containing the SRS curtain shield airbags inside, is scratched,
cracked, or otherwise damaged.

WARNING
●Do not sit on the edge of the seat or lean against the dashboard.
●Do not allow a child to stand in front of the SRS front passenger airbag
unit or sit on the knees of a front passenger.
●Do not allow the front seat occu-
pants to hold items on their knees.
●Do not lean against the door, the
roof side rail or the front, side and rear pillars.
●Do not allow anyone to kneel on the passenger seat toward the door or put their head or hands outside the
vehicle.
●Do not attach anything to or lean
anything against areas such as the dashboard or steering wheel pad.These items can become projec-
tiles when the SRS driver and front passenger airbags deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas such as a door, windshield, side window, front or rear pillar, roof side
rail and assist grip. (Except for the speed limit label P.532)
●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 cur-tain shield airbags deploy.

1-1. For safe use
WARNING
●Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side
airbags and SRS front seat center airbag inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the SRS airbags.
Such accessories may prevent the side airbags and SRS front seat center airbag from activating cor-
rectly, disable the system or cause the side airbags and SRS front seat center airbag to inflate accidentally,
resulting in death or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant
levels of force to the area of the SRS airbag components or the front doors.
Doing so can cause the SRS air- bags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS air-bags have deployed (inflated) as
they may be hot.
●If breathing becomes difficult after
the SRS airbags have deployed, open a door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it
is safe to do so. Wash off any resi- due as soon as possible to prevent skin irritation.
●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
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per-
form any of the following modifica- tions without consulting any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The SRS airbags may mal-function or deploy (inflate) acciden-
tally, causing death or serious injury.
●Installation, removal, disassembly and repair of the SRS airbags
●Repairs, modifications, removal or replacement of the steering wheel,
instrument panel, dashboard, seats or seat upholstery, front, side and rear pillars, roof side rails, front
door panels, front door trims or front door speakers
●Modifications to the front door panel (such as making a hole in it)
●Repairs or modifications of the front fender, front bumper, or side of the occupant compartment

1-2. Child safety
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system in a rear seat. In the event that the rear seat cannot be
used, the front seat can be used as long as the airbag manual on-off sys-tem is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag deployment (inflation) may cause
serious injury or even death.
■When a child restraint system is
not installed on the front passen- ger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off
system is set to “ON”. If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident,
which may result in serious injury or even death.
Riding with children
Observe the following precau-
tions when children are in the
vehicle.
Use a child restraint system
appropriate for the child, until
the child becomes large
enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belt.
 It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact with
the steering wheel, wiper
switch, etc.
 Use the rear door child-protec-
tor lock or the window lock
switch to avoid children open-
ing the door while driving or
operating the power window
accidentally. ( P.188, 221)
Do not let small children oper-
ate equipment which may
catch or pinch body parts,
such as the power window,
hood, back door, seats, etc.
WARNING
■When children are in the vehicle
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehi- cle or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a danger that children
may injure themselves by playing with the windows or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or
extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

WARNING
WARNING
●Only put a forward-facing child restraint system on the front seat
when unavoidable. When installing a forward-facing child restraint on the front passenger seat, move the
seat as far back as possible. Failing to do so may result in death or seri-ous injury if the airbags deploy
(inflate).
●Do not allow the child to lean
his/her head or any part of his/her body against the door or the area of the seat, front or rear pillars, or roof
side rails from which the SRS side airbags or SRS curtain shield air-
bags deploy even if the child is seated in the child restraint system. It is dangerous if the SRS side and
curtain shield airbags inflate, and the impact could cause death or serious injury to the child.
●When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder
belt is positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be kept away from the
child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s shoulder.
