WARNING
■Front passenger occupant
classification system precau-
tions
Observe the following precautions
regarding the front passenger
occupant classification system.
Failure to do so may cause the
occupant classifi cation system to
not function correctly, resulting in
death or serious injury.
●Wear the seat belt properly.
●Do not apply excessive force to
the seat.
●Do not put sharp object(s) on
the seat or pierce the seat
upholstery.
●Do not put objects under the
front passenger seat.
●Do not use a seat accessory,
such as a cushion or seat cover,
that covers the seat cushion
surface.
●Do not spill liqui d on the front
passenger seat. If liquid is
spilled, wipe it off immediately
and dry the seat. If the SRS
warning light illumi nates, dry the
seat until the warning light turns
off. If the SRS warning light
stays on even when the seat
has dried, do not allow anyone
to sit on the front passenger
seat and have the system
checked by your Toyota dealer.
If the SRS warning light does
not illuminate, check that the
airbag ON/OFF indicator light
works properly. If the indicator
light does not work properly, do
not allow anyone to sit in the
front passenger’s seat and have
the system inspected by your
Toyota dealer.
●Do not remove or disassemble
the front passenger seat. Also,
do not replace or modify the
seat upholstery or foam inside
the seat.
●Do not install any accessory
(such as an audio amplifier)
other than a genuine Toyota
accessory under t he front pas-
senger’s seat.
●Do not place a magnetized
items near the seat belt buckle.
●Never install a rearward facing
child seat in the front passen-
ger’s seat even if the front pas-
senger’s SRS frontal airbag is
deactivated. Be sure to install it
in the rear seat in a correct
manner. Also, it is strongly rec-
ommended that any forward
facing child seat or booster seat
be installed in the rear seat, and
that even children who have
outgrown a child restraint sys-
tem be also seated in the rear
seat. This is because children
sitting in the front passenger’s
seat may be killed or severely
injured should the front passen-
ger’s SRS frontal airbag deploy.
Toyota believes that the rear
seats are the safest place for
children.
●If luggage or electronic devices
are placed on the front passen-
ger seat, the OFF indicator may
turn off and the ON indicator
may illuminate. If this occurs,
the front passenger’s airbag
may deploy during a collision. If
this is not desirable, remove the
luggage or electronic devices
from the front passenger seat.

601-1. For safe use
■There is a malfunction in the system
*1: The occupant classification system does not operate during selfcheck-
ing.
*2: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller
adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may not recognize
him/her as an adult depending on his/her physique and posture.
*3: In the event the front passenge r does not wear a seat belt.
*4: The front passenger’s SRS side airbag, SRS curtain shield airbag and
seat belt pretensioner are not c ontrolled by the occupant classification
system.
*5: For some children, child in seat, child in booster seat or chi ld in convert-
ible seat, the system may not recognize him/her as a child. Fac tors
which may affect this can be the physique or posture.
Children who have outgrown a child restraint system should alwa ys wear
the seat belt when sitting in the seat irrespective of whether the airbag is
deactivated o r activated.
*6: Do not place more than one child on the front p assenger seat.
Failure to do so may prevent the front passenger occupant class ification
system from functioning correctly.
*7: When a child restraint system is installed on the front passen ger seat, do
not place any article on the seat other than the child occupant and a child
restraint system.
Failure to do so may prevent the front passenger occupant class ification
system from functioning correctly or cause the system to fail.
*8: Never install a rear-facing ch ild restraint system on the front passenger
seat. See the caution that follows regarding installation of a child restraint
system. ( P.64)

621-1. For safe use
Exhaust gas precau-
tions
Harmful substance to the
human body is included in
exhaust gases if inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful
carbon monoxide (CO), which is
colorless 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 trunk lid closed.
●If you smell exhaust gases in
the vehicle even when the trunk
lid is closed, open the windows
and have the vehicle inspected
at your Toyota dealer 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 snow-
banks build up around the vehi-
cle while the engine is running,
exhaust gases may collect and
enter the vehicle.
■Exhaust pipe
The exhaust system needs to be
checked periodically. If there is a
hole or crack caused by corro-
sion, damage to a joint or abnor-
mal exhaust noise, be sure to
have the vehicle inspected and
repaired by your Toyota dealer.

Riding with children
Observe the following pre-
cautions 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 window lock switch
to avoid children operating
the power window acciden-
tally. ( P.130)
 Do not let small children
operate equipment which
may catch or pinch body
parts, such as the power
window, hood, trunk, seats
etc.
WARNING
■When children are in the vehi-
cle
Never leave children unattended
in the vehicle, and never allow
children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the
vehicle or shift the vehicle into
neutral. There is also a danger
that children ma y injure them-
selves by playing with the win-
dows or other features of the
vehicle. In addition, heat build-up
or extremely cold temperatures
inside the vehicle can be fatal to
children.
