WA R N I N G
●Vehicles without a smart entry &  
start system and with an 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 knee airbag inflation or be  
thrust into the driver’s seat area by 
the force of the deploying airbag, 
thus causing a danger.
●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 projectiles and may cause  death or serious injury, should the  
SRS curtain shield airbags deploy.
●Vehicles with an SRS driver’s knee 
airbag: If a vinyl cover is put on the 
area where the SRS driver’s knee  airbag will deploy, be sure to  
remove it.
●Vehicles with SRS side airbags: Do 
not use seat accessories which 
cover the parts where the SRS side  airbags inflate as they may interfere  
with inflation of the SRS airbags. 
Such accessories may prevent the  side airbags from activating cor- 
rectly, disable the system or cause 
the side airbags to inflate acciden- tally, 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  
airbags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component 
parts immediately after the SRS 
airbags 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.
●Vehicles without SRS curtain shield 
airbags: If the areas where the SRS  airbags are stored, such as the  
steering wheel pad are damaged or 
cracked, have them replaced by  any authorized Toyota retailer or  
Toyota authorized repairer, or any 
reliable repairer.
●Vehicles with SRS curtain shield 
airbags: If the areas where the SRS  airbags are stored, such as the  
steering wheel pad and front and 
rear pillars 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 your Toyota  
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, 
or any reliable repairer. The SRS 
airbags may malfunction or deploy  (inflate) accidentally, causing death or  
serious injury.

and repair of the SRS airbags

■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 shift lever, 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.117, 138) 
 Do not let small children oper- 
ate equipment which may 
catch or pinch body parts, 
such as the power window, 
hood, trunk, seats, etc.

●Never use a rear-facing child  
restraint system on the front pas-
senger seat when the airbag man- ual on-off switch is on. ( P.45) The  
force of the rapid inflation of the 
front passenger airbag can cause  death or serious injury to children in  
the event of an accident.
●There is a label(s) on the passen- ger side sun visor, indicating it is  
forbidden to attach a rear-facing 
child restraint system to the front  passenger seat. 
Details of the label(s) are shown in 
the illustration below.

●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).
●Vehicles with SRS side airbags or 
SRS curtain shield  airbags: 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 airbags deploy  
even if the child is seated in the 
child restraint system. It is danger- ous if the SRS side and curtain  
shield airbags inflate, and the 
impact could cause death or seri- ous 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.

*1: Move the front seat fully rearward. If  
the passenger seat height can be 
adjusted, move it to the upper most 
position.
*2: Adjust the seatback angle to the 
most upright position. When install-
ing a forward-facing child seat, if 
there is a gap between the child seat 
and the seatback, adjust the 
seatback angle until good contact is 
achieved.
*3: If the head restraint interferes with 
your child restra int system, and the  
head restraint can be removed, 
remove the head restraint.
Otherwise, put the head restraint in 
the upper most position.
*4: Use only a front-fa cing child restraint  
system when the airbag manual 
on-off switch is on.
*5: Not suitable for ch ild restraint system
