SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
•The driver and front passenger airbag Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) is designed only as a supplement to the primary
protection of the seat belt systems of the driver and front
passenger. The front seat occupants are particularly
susceptible to injury if they do not wear their seat belts; when
sudden braking or a collision occurs, they may be thrown
forward. To obtain maximum protection in an accident, the
driver and all passengers in the vehicle should always wear
their seat belts when driving because serious injuries or death
can result to unrestrained occupants. For instructions and
precautions concerning the seat belt system, see “Seat belts”
in your Owner’s Manual.
•Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system
on the rear seat that conforms to the size of the child.
According to accident statistics, a child is safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.
•Never use a rear-facing child restraint system in the front seat
even if the front passenger occupant classification indicator
light indicates “OFF.” The force of the rapid inflation of the
passenger airbag can cause severe injury or death to a child.
•Unless it is unavoidable, do not install a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front seat even if the front passenger
occupant classification indicator light indicates “OFF.” If you
must install a forward-facing child restraint system on the
front seat, move the seat as far back as possible.
•Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions
provided by the child restraint manufacturer and the system is
properly secured.
•Make sure the frontpassenger occupantclassification indicator
light indicates “ON” when using the seat belt extender for the
front passenger seat. If the indicator light indicates “OFF,”
disconnect the extender tongue from the seat belt buckle,
then reconnect the seat belt. Reconnect the seat belt
extender after making sure the indicator light indicates “ON.”
If you use the seat belt extender while the indicator light
indicates “OFF,” the front passenger airbag and side airbag on
the front passenger side may not activate correctly, which
could cause death or serious injury in the event of collision.
•If an adult sits in the front passenger seat, the occupant
classificationindicatorlightshouldindicate“ON.”Ifthe“OFF”
indicator is illuminated, ask the passenger to sit up straight,
well back in the seat, feet on the floor, and with the seat belt
worn
correctly. If the “OFF” indicator still remains
illuminated, either ask the passenger to move to the rear seat,
or if that is not possible, move the front passenger seat fully
rearward.
•The SRS side and side curtain airbags (optional) are designed
to deploy in certain types of severe side impact collisions. In
all other collisions, the side and side curtain airbags will not
deploy. For instructions and precautions, see your Owner’s
Manual.
•Do not lean against the side doors when the vehicle is in use.
The side and side curtain airbags inflate with considerable
speed and force. Death or serious injury could result.
•Do not modify, cover or replace the surface of the front seats.
Such changes could disable the system or prevent the airbags
from activating correctly, resulting in death or serious injury.
