Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed
based on the US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The
airbag sensor assembly (ECU) cont rols 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 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 front seats,
parts of the front and rear pillars,
and roof side rails, may be hot for
several minutes. T he airbag itself
may also be hot.
●The windshield may crack.
●The fuel cell system will be
stopped and hydr ogen supply will
be stopped fro m the hydrogen
tank valves. ( P. 8 9 )
●All of the doors will be unlocked.
( P.128)
●The brakes and st op lights will be
controlled automatically. ( P.323)
●The interior lights will turn on auto-
matically. ( P.357)
●The emergency flashers will turn
on automatically. ( P.446)
●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 5 )
• An SRS airbag is deployed.
• A seat belt pretensioner is acti- vated.
• The vehicle is involved in a severe rear-end collision.
■SRS airbag deployment condi-
tions (SRS front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy
in the event of an impact that
exceeds the set threshold level
(the level of forc e corresponding
to an approximately 12 - 18 mph
[20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with
a fixed wall that does not move or
deform).
However, this threshold velocity will
be considerably higher in the follow-
ing situations:

For safety and security
• 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 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,
it is possible that only the seat belt
pretensioners will activate.
●The SRS front airbags for the front
passenger will not activate if there
is no passenger sitting in the front
passenger seat. However, the
SRS front airbags for the front
passenger may de ploy if luggage
is put in the seat, even if the seat
is unoccupied.
■SRS airbag deployment condi-
tions (SRS side and curtain
shield airbags)
●The SRS side and curtain shield
airbags will deploy i n the event of
an impact that exceeds the set
threshold level (the level of force
corresponding to the impact force
produced by an approximately
3300 lb. [1500 kg] vehicle colliding
with the vehicle cabin from a
direction perpendicular to the
vehicle orientation at an approxi-
mate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 -
30 km/h]).
●Both SRS curtain shield airbags
may deploy in the event of a
severe side collision.
●Both SRS curtain shield airbags
will deploy in the event of vehicle
rollover.
●Both SRS curtain shield airbags
may also deploy in the event of a
severe frontal collision.
■Conditions under which the
SRS airbags may deploy
(inflate), other t han a collision
The SRS front airbags and SRS
side and curtain shield airbags may
also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the underside of your vehi-
cle. Some examples are shown in
the illustration.
●Hitting a curb, edge of pavement
or hard surface
●Falling into or jumping over a deep
hole
●Landing hard or falling
The SRS curtain shield airbags may
also deploy under the situations
shown in the illustration.
●The angle of vehicle tip-up is mar-
ginal.
●The vehicle skids and hits a curb
stone.
■Types of collisions that may not
deploy the SRS airbags (SRS
front airbags)
The SRS front airbags do not gener-
ally inflate if the vehicle is involved
in a side or r ear collision, if it rolls
over, or if it is involved in a low-
speed frontal collision. But, when-
ever a collision o f any type causes
sufficient forward deceleration of the
vehicle, deploym ent of the SRS
front airbags may occur.
●Collision from the side
●Collision from the rear
●Vehicle rollover

■Types of collisions that may not
deploy the SRS airbags (SRS
side and curtain shield airbags)
The SRS side and curtain shield air-
bags may not activate if the vehicle
is subjected to a c ollision from the
side at certain angl es, or a collision
to the side of the vehicle body other
than the passenger compartment.
●Collision from the s ide to the vehi-
cle body other than the passenger
compartment
●Collision from the s ide at an angle
The SRS side airbags do not gener-
ally inflate if the vehicle is involved
in a frontal or rear c ollision, if it rolls
over, or if it is involved in a low-
speed side collision.
●Collision from the front
●Collision from the rear
●Vehicle rollover
The SRS curtain shield airbags do
not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a rear collision, if it
pitches end over en
d, or if it is
involved in a low- speed side or low-
speed frontal collision.
●Collision from the rear
●Pitching end over end
■When to contact your Toyota
dealer
In the following ca ses, the vehicle
will require inspecti on and/or repair.
Contact your Toyota dealer as soon
as possible.
●Any of the SRS airbags have
been inflated.
●The front of the vehicle is dam-
aged or deformed, or was
involved in an accident that was
not severe enough to cause the
SRS front airbags to inflate.
●A portion of a door or its surround-
ing area is damaged, deformed or
has had a hole made in it, or the
vehicle was involved in an acci-
dent that was not severe enough
to cause the SRS side and curtain
shield airbags to inflate.

For safety and security
●The pad section of the steering
wheel, dashboard near the front
passenger airbag o r lower portion
of the instrument panel is
scratched, cracked, or otherwise
damaged.
●The surface of the seats with the
side airbag is scratched, cracked,
or otherwise damaged.
●The portion of the front pillars, rear
pillars or roof side rail garnishes
(padding) containing the SRS cur-
tain shield airbags inside is
scratched, cracked, or otherwise
damaged.
WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions
regarding the SRS airbags.
Failure to do so may cause death
or serious injury.
●The driver and all passengers in
the vehicle must wear their seat
belts properly.
The SRS airbags are supple-
mental devices to be used with
the seat belts.
●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 Administr ation (NHTSA)
advises: Since the risk zone for
the driver’s airbag is the first 2 - 3
in. (50 - 75 mm) of inflation, plac-
ing yourself 10 in. (250 mm) from
your driver airbag provides you
with a clear margin of safety. This
distance is measured from the
center of the steering wheel to
your breastbone. If you sit less
than 10 in. (250 mm) away now,
you can change you r driving posi-
tion in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reach-
ing the pedals comfortably.

WARNING
●Do not sit on the edge of the
seat or lean against the dash-
board.
●Do not allow a child to stand in
front of the SRS front passenger
airbag unit or sit on the knees of
a front passenger.
●Do not allow the front seat occu-
pants to hold items on their
knees.
●Do not lean against the door,
the roof side rail or the front,
side and rear pillars.
●Do not allow anyone to kneel on
the passenger seats toward the
door or put their head or hands
outside the vehicle.
●Do not attach anything to or
lean anything against areas
such as the dashboard, steering
wheel pad and lower portion of
the instrument panel.
These items can become pro-
jectiles when th e SRS driver,
front passenger and knee air-
bags deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas
such as a door, windshield, side
windows, front or rear pillar, roof
side rail and assist grip. (Except
for the speed limit label
 P.472)

WARNING
●Do not hang coat hangers or
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.
●If a vinyl cover is put on the area
where the SRS knee airbag will
deploy, be sure to remove it.
●Do not use seat accessories
which cover the parts where the
SRS side airbags inflate as they
may interfere with inflation of
the SRS airbags. Such acces-
sories may prevent the SRS
side airbags from activating cor-
rectly, disable the system or
cause the SRS side airbags to
inflate accidentally, resulting in
death or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant
levels of force to the area of the
SRS airbag components or the
front doors. Doing so can cause
the SRS airbags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the compo-
nent parts immediately after the
SRS airbags have deployed
(inflated) as they may be hot.
●If breathing becomes difficult
after the SRS airbags have
deployed, open a door or win-
dow to allow fresh air in, or
leave the vehicle if it is safe to
do so. Wash off any residue as
soon as possible to prevent skin
irritation.
●If the areas where the SRS air-
bags are stored, such as the
steering wheel pad and front
and rear pillar garnishes are
damaged or cracked, have
them replaced by your Toyota
dealer.
●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 SRS front airbags for
the front passenger may not
deploy in the event of a colli-
sion.
■Modification and disposal of
SRS airbag system compo-
nents
Do not dispose of your vehicle or
perform any of the following modi-
fications without consulting your
Toyota dealer. The SRS airbags
may malfunction or deploy
(inflate) accidentally, causing
death or serious injury.
●Installation, re moval, disassem-
bly and repair of the SRS air-
bags
●Repairs, modific ations, removal
or replacement of the steering
wheel, instrument panel, dash-
board, seats or seat upholstery,
front, side and rear pillars, roof
side rails, front door panels,
front door trims or front door
speakers
●Modifications to the front door
panel (such as making a hole in
it)
●Repairs or modifications of the
front fender, front bumper, or
side of the occupant compart-
ment
●Installation of a grille guard (bull
bars, kangaroo bar, etc.), snow
plows or winches
●Modifications to the vehicle’s
suspension system
