For safety and security
1To fasten the seat belt, push
the plate into the buckle until
a click sound is heard.
2 To release the seat belt,
press the release button .
■Emergency locking retractor
(ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during
a sudden stop or on impact. It may
also lock if you lean forward too
quickly. When the seat belt locks,
pull the belt strongly and then
release the belt, then a slow and
easy pulling will allow the belt to
extend.
■Automatic locking retractor
(ALR)
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is
completely extended and then
retracted even slightly, the belt is
locked in that position and cannot
be extended. This feature is used to
hold the child restraint system
(CRS) firmly. To free the belt again,
fully retract the belt and then pull the
belt out once more. ( P. 4 3 )
■After using the rear center seat
belt
Stow seat belt buckle in the pocket.
WARNING
●Do not use the seat belt
extender when installing a child
restraint system because the
belt will not securely hold the
child restraint system, increas-
ing the risk of death or serious
injury in the event of an acci-
dent.
●The personalized extender may
not be safe on another vehicle,
when used by another person,
or at a different seating position
other than the one originally
intended.
NOTICE
■When using a seat belt
extender
When releasing the seat belt,
press on the buckle release but-
ton on the extender, not on the
seat belt.
This helps prevent damage to the
vehicle interior and the extender
itself.
Fastening and releasing
the seat belt
Adjusting the seat belt
shoulder anchor height
(front seats)

281-1. For safe use
1Push the seat belt shoulder
anchor down while pressing
the release button .
2 Push the seat belt shoulder
anchor up while pressing the
release button .
Move the height adjuster up and
down as needed until you hear a
click.
When the vehicle is subjected to
a severe frontal or side impact
or rollover, the pretensioners
retract the seat belts of the front
seats and rear outer seats to
securely restrain the occupants.
The pretensioners will not operate
in minor frontal or side impacts, or
rear impacts.
■Replacing the belt after the pre-
tensioner has been activated
If the vehicle is in volved in multiple
collisions, the pretensioner will acti-
vate for the first collision, but will not
activate for the second or subse- quent collisions.
■PCS-linked control
If the PCS (Pre-Collision System)
determines that the possibility of a
collision with a vehi cle is high, the
seat belt pretensioners will be pre-
pared to operate.
WARNING
■Adjustable shoulder anchor
Always make sure the shoulder
belt is positioned across the cen-
ter of your shoulder. The belt
should be kept away from your
neck, but not falling off your shoul-
der. Failure to do so could reduce
the amount of protection in an
accident and cause death or seri-
ous injuries in the event of a sud-
den stop, sudden swerve or
accident.
Seat belt pretensioners
(front and outboard rear
seats)
WARNING
■Seat belt pretensioners
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of injury in the
event of sudden braking or an
accident. Failure to do so may
result in death or serious injury.
●Do not place anything, such as
a cushion, on the front passen-
ger’s seat. Doing so will
disperse the passenger’s
weight, which prevents the sen-
sor from detecting the passen-
ger’s weight properly. As a
result, the seat belt pretensioner
for the front passenger’s seat
may not operate in the event of
a collision.
●If a pretensioner has operated,
the SRS warning light will illumi-
nate. In this situation, the seat
belt cannot be used and must
be replaced by your Toyota
dealer.

301-1. For safe use
based on US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The air-
bag sensor assembly (ECU) controls airbag deployment based on
information obtained from the sensors, etc., shown in the system
components diagram above. This in formation includes crash sever-
ity and occupant information. 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.
■If the SRS airbags deploy
(inflate)
●Slight abrasions, burns, bruising,
etc., may be sustained from SRS
airbags, due to the extremely high
speed of deployment (inflation) by
hot gases.
●A loud noise and white powder will
be emitted.
●Parts of the airbag module (steer-
ing wheel hub, airbag cover and
inflator) as well as the parts
around the airbags may be hot for
several minutes. T he airbag itself
may also be hot.
●The windshield may crack.
●The hybrid system will be stopped
and fuel supply to the engine will
be stopped. ( P. 7 4 )
●All of the doors will be unlocked.
( P.116)
●The brakes and st op lights will be
controlled automatically. ( P.285)
●The interior lights will turn on auto-
matically. ( P.309)
●The emergency flashers will turn
on automatically. ( P.394)
●For Safety Connect subscribers, if
any of the following situations
occur, the system is designed to
send an emergency call to the
response 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 assis-
tance required. If the occupants
are unable to communicate, the agent automatically treats the call
as an emergency and helps to dis-
patch the necessary emergency
services. (
P. 6 4 )
• When an SRS airbag has been deployed
• When a seat belt pretensioner has
operated
• When the vehicle has been involved in a severe rear-end colli-
sion
■The SRS airbags deploy in a
frontal impact when
●The following SRS airbags will
deploy in the event of an impact
that exceeds a th reshold level
(level of force corresponding to an
approximately 12 - 18 mph [20 -
30 km/h] frontal collision with a
fixed wall that does not move or
deform):
• SRS front airbags
• SRS knee airbag
●The threshold level at which the
SRS airbags will deploy will be
higher than normal in the in the
following situations:
• When the vehicle collides with an
object, such as a parked vehicle
or sign pole, which moves or
deforms on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a colli-
sion in which the front of the vehi-
cle “underrides”, or goes under,
the bed of a truck
●Depending on the type of collision,
only the following may deploy:
• Seat belt pretensioners
●The SRS airbags for the front pas-
senger’s seat will not deploy if
there is no passe nger in the front

WARNING
●The SRS driver airbag deploys
with considerable force, and
can cause death or serious
injury, especially if the driver is
very close to the airbag. The
National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA)
advises:
Since the risk zone for the driver’s
airbag is the first 2 - 3 in. (50 - 75
mm) of inflation, placing yourself
10 in. (250 mm) from your driver
airbag provides y ou with a clear
margin of safety. This distance is
measured from the center of the
steering wheel to your breast-
bone. If your current driving posi-
tion places you less than 10 in.
(250 mm) away from the driver
airbag, you can change your driv-
ing position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as possible while still being
able to reach the pedals com-
fortably.
• Slightly recline the seatback. Although vehicle designs vary,
many drivers can achieve the
10 in. (251 mm) distance, even
with the driver seat all the way
forward, simply by reclining the
seatback somewhat. If reclining
the seatback makes it hard to
see the road, raise yourself by
using a firm, non-slippery cush-
ion, or raise the seat if your
vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjust- able, tilt it downward. This
points the airbag toward your
chest instead of your head and
neck. The seat should be
adjusted as recommended by
the NHTSA, while still being
able to control the vehicle with
the pedals and steering wheel,
and maintaining your view of the
instrument panel controls.
●If a seat belt extender has been
connected to a front seat belt
buckle but the latch plate of the
seat belt has not been fastened
to the seat belt extender, the
SRS airbag system will judge
that the occupant is wearing the
seat belt even though the seat
belt has not been fastened. In
this case, the SRS front airbags
may not deploy c orrectly in a
collision, resulting in death or
serious injury. Be sure to wear
the seat belt correctly when
using a seat belt extender.
●The SRS front passenger air-
bag deploys with considerable
force, and can cause death or
serious injury, especially if the
front passenger is very close to
the airbag. The front passenger
seat should be positioned as far
possible from the airbag with
the seatback adjusted so that
the passenger is sat upright.
