CAMRY_UThe  SRS  airbag  and  seat  belt  pretensioner  devices  in  your  Toyota  contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners  left  as  they  are,  this  may  cause  an  accident  such
  as  fire.  Be
sure  to  have  the  systems  of  the  SRS  airbag  and  seat  belt  preten sioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Toyota dealer
before you scrap your vehicle.
Special handling may apply, See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/ perchlorate.
Your  vehicle  has  components  that  may  contain  perchlorate.  These  compo-
nents may include the airbags, seat belt pretensioners, wireles s remote con-
trol  batteries,  and  the  batteries  in  the  tire  pressure  warning  valve  and
transmitters.

WARNING
■ General precautions while driving
Driving under the  influence:  Never drive  your vehicle when  under  the  influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi-
cle.  Alcohol  and  certain  drugs  delay  reaction  time,  impair  judg ment  and
reduce  coordination,  which  could  lead  to  an  accident  that  could   result  in
death or serious injury.
Defensive  driving: Always  drive  defensively. Anticipate  mistake s  that  other
drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver  distraction:  Always  give  your  full  attention  to  driving.  Anything  that
distracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a  cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regarding children’s safety
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  may  injure  themselves  by playing with
the  windows,  the  moon  roof  or  panoramic  moon  roof,  or  other  features  of
the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely cold tempe ratures inside
the vehicle can be fatal to children.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
● 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.
●Do  not  attach  anything  to  or  lean  any-
thing  against  areas  such  as  the  dash-
board,  steering  wheel  pad  and  lower
portion of the instrument panel. 
These  items  can  become  projectiles
when  the  SRS  driver,  front  passenger
and knee airbags deploy.
● Do not attach anything to areas such as
a  door,  windshield,  windows,  front  or
rear pillar, roof side rail and assist grip.
● Vehicles  without  a  smart  key  system:
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.
