Adjust the angle of the seatback
so that you are sitting straight up
and so that you do not have to
lean forward to steer. ( P. 1 1 2 )
Adjust the seat so that you can
depress the pedals fully and so
that your arms bend slightly at
the elbow when gripping the
steering wheel. ( P. 1 1 2 )
Lock the head restraint in place
with the center of the head
restraint closest to the top of
your ears. ( P. 1 1 5 )
Wear the seat belt correctly.

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.218)
●The interior lights will turn on automat- ically. ( P.236)
●The emergency flashers will turn on automatically. ( P.304)
●Fuel supply to the engine will be stopped. ( P.312)
●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.60)
• 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 2 )
■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
pretensioners 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.

WARNING
●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 dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
■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 air-bags may malfunction or deploy
(inflate) accidentally, 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, side door panels, side door trims or side door
speakers
●Modifications to the side door panel
(such as making a hole in it)
●Repairs or modifications of the front
fender, front bumper, or side of the occupant compartment
●Installation of a grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar, etc.), snow plows or winches
●Modifications to the vehicle’s sus-pension system
●Installation of electronic devices such as mobile two-way radios (RF-
transmitter) and CD players
Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful substance to the
human body is included in
exhaust gases if inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful car-
bon monoxide (CO), which is color- less and odorless. Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases enter the vehicle and may lead to an accident caused by light-
headedness, or may lead to death or a serious health hazard.
■Important points while driving
●Keep the back door closed.
●If you smell exhaust gases in the vehicle even when the back door is closed, open the windows and have
the vehicle inspected at any autho- rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer as soon as possible.
■When parking
●If the vehicle is in a poorly venti- lated area or a closed area, such as a garage, stop the engine.
●Do not leave the vehicle with the engine on for a long time.
If such a situation cannot be avoided, park the vehicle in an open space and ensure that
exhaust fumes do not enter the vehicle interior.
●Do not leave the engine running in an area with snow build-up, or where it is snowing. If snowbanks
build up around the vehicle while the engine is running, exhaust gases may collect and enter the
vehicle.

For safety and security
to assess the situation. If the occu-
pants are unable to communicate,
the operator automatically treats
the call as an emergency and con-
tacts the nearest emergency ser-
vices provider (112 system etc.) to
describe the situation and request
that assistance be sent to the loca-
tion.
*: In some cases, the call cannot be
made. ( P. 6 2 )
■Manual Emergency Calls
In the event of an emergency, press
the “SOS” button to call the eCall
control center.* The answering
operator will determine your vehi-
cle’s location, assess the situation,
and dispatch the necessary assis-
tance required.
Make sure to open the cover before
pressing the “SOS” button.
If you accidentally press the “SOS” but-
ton, tell the operator that you are not
experiencing an emergency.
*: In some cases, the call cannot be
made. ( P. 6 2 )
When the engine switch is turned to
ON, the red indicator light will illumi-
nate for 10 seconds and then the
green indicator light will illuminate,
indicating that the system is
enabled. The indicator lights indi-
cate the following:
If the green indicator light illumi-
n a t e s a n d s t a y s o n , t h e s y s t e m i s
enabled.
If the green indicator light flashes
twice per second, an automatic
or manual Emergency Call is
being made.
If the red indicator light illumi-
nates at any time other than
immediately after the engine
switch is turned to ON, the sys-
tem may be malfunctioning or
the backup battery may be
depleted.
If the red indicator light blinks for
approximately 30 seconds during
an Emergency Call, the call has
been disconnected or the cellular
network signal is weak.
The service life of the backup battery
does not exceed 3 years.
