The 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 pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer before
you scrap your vehicle.

WARNING
■ General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impair ed your ability to operate your vehi-
cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and
reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in
death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes 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 or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or
extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

■Automatic Emergency Calls
If any airbag deploys, the system is designed to automatically call
the eCall control center.* The answering operator receives the vehi-
cle’s location, the time of the incident and the vehicle VIN, and
attempts to speak with the vehicle occupants to assess the situa-
tion. If the occupants are unable to communicate, the operator
automatically treats the call as an emergency and contacts the
nearest emergency services provider (112 system etc.) to describe
the situation and request that assistance be sent to the location.
*: In some cases, the call cannot be made. ( P. 9 9 )
■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
vehicle’s location, assess the situation, and dispatch the necessary
assistance required.
Make sure to open the cover
before pressing the “SOS” but-
ton.
If you accidentally press the “SOS” button, tell the operator that you are
not experiencing an emergency.

WARNING
■When the Emergency Call may not be made
● It may not be possible to make Emergency Calls in any of the following sit-
uations. In such cases, report to emergency services provider (112 system
etc.) by other means such as nearby public phones.
• Even when the vehicle is in the cellular phone service area, it may be
difficult to connect to the eCall control center if the reception is poor or
the line is busy. In such cases, even though the system attempts to con-
nect to the eCall control center, you may not be able to connect to the
eCall control center to make Emergency Calls and contact emergency
services.
• When the vehicle is out of the cellular phone service area, the Emer-
gency Calls cannot be made.

the equipment) is malfunctioning, damaged or broken, the Emergency
Call cannot be made.
• During an Emergency Call, the system makes repeated attempts to
connect to the eCall control center. However, if it cannot connect to the
eCall control center due to poor radio wave reception, the system may
not be able to connect to the cellular network and the call may finish
without connecting. The red indicator light will blink for approximately 30
seconds to indicate this disconnection.
