“PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator lights
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.
QIf the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
OSlight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may be sustained from SRS airbags, due to the extremely high speed
deployment (inflation) by hot gases.
OA loud noise and white powder will be
emitted.
OParts 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.
OThe windshield may crack.
OThe hybrid system will be stopped and
fuel supply to the engine will be stopped. ( P.98)
OAll of the doors will be unlocked. ( P.204)
OVehicles with Secondary Collision Brake: The brakes and stop lights will be controlled automatically. ( P.392)
OThe interior lights will turn on automat- ically. ( P.420)
OThe emergency flashers will turn on automatically. ( P.500)
OVehicles 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.65)
• An SRS airbag is deployed. • A seat belt pretensioner is activated.
• The vehicle is involved in a severe rear-end collision.
QSRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS front airbags)
OThe 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
ODepending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt preten-sioners will activate.
QSRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS side and curtain shield air- bags)
OThe 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]).
OBoth SRS curtain shield airbags may

2885-3. Operating the lights and wipers
5-3.Operating the lights and wipers
Operating the switch turns
on the lights as follows:
1 The front position, tail,
license plate and instrument
panel lights turn on.
2 The headlights and all lights
listed above turn on.
3 The headlights, daytime
running lights ( P.288) and all
the lights listed above turn on
and off automatically.
QAUTO mode can be used when
The power switch is in ON.
QDaytime running light system
To make your vehicle more visible to
other drivers during daytime driving, the
daytime running lights turn on automati-
cally whenever the hybrid system is started and the parking brake is released with the headlight switch in the
position. (Illuminate brighter than
the front position lights.) Daytime run- ning lights are not designed for use at
night.
QHeadlight control sensor
The sensor may not function properly if an object is placed on the sensor, or
anything that blocks the sensor is affixed to the windshield. Doing so inter-feres with the sensor detecting the level
of ambient light and may cause the automatic headlight system to malfunc-tion.
QAutomatic light off system
OWhen the light switch is in or
position: The headlights and front fog
lights turn off after the power switch is turned to ACC or OFF.
OWhen the light switch is in posi-
tion: The headlights and all lights turn off after the power switch is turned to
ACC or OFF.
To turn the lights on again, turn the power switch to ON, or turn the light
switch to position once and then
back to or position.
QLight reminder buzzer
A buzzer sounds when the driver’s door
is opened while the lights are turned on
with the power switch in ACC or OFF.
Headlight switch
The headlights can be oper-
ated manually or automati-
cally.
