SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
Seat belts
•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 the 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 “AIRBAG OFF” indicator light is
illuminated. 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
“AIRBAG OFF” indicator light is illuminated. If you must
install a forward-facing child restraint system on the front
seat, move the seat as far back as possible.
•Make sure “AIRBAG ON” indicator light is illuminated when
using the seat belt extender for the front passenger seat.
If the “AIRBAG OFF” indicator light is illuminated
disconnect the extender tongue from the seat belt buckle,
then reconnect the seat belt. Reconnect the seat belt
extender after making sure “AIRBAG ON” indicator light is
illuminated. If you use the seat belt extender while the
“AIRBAG OFF” indicator light is illuminated, 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, “AIRBAG ON”
indicator light is illuminated. If the “AIRBAG OFF”
indicator light 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 “AIRBAG OFF” indicator
light 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.
•Make sure you have complied with all installation
instructions provided by the child restraint manufacturer
and the system is properly secured.
•The SRS side airbags and side curtain airbags (optional) are
designed to deploy in certain types of severe side impact
collisions. In all other collisions, the side impact 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 airbags and side curtain airbags inflate with
considerable speed and force. Death or serious injury
could result.

to install a child restraint system, refer to the
Owner’s Manual.
Airbag-Supplemental Restraint System

front, side* and side curtain* airbags are designed to
help provide further protection for the driver and
outboard passenger in addition to the primary safety
protection provided by the seat belts.
Front passenger occupant classification system
Monitors the load on the front passenger seat, and
detects if the seat belt is fastened to determine
passenger occupancy and size of passenger, if any.

Do not place heavy objects on the front passenger
seat.
Do not attach a seatback table to the front

Do not put weight on the front passenger seat by
putting your hands or feet on the front passenger
seatback from the rear passenger seat.
Please read the following caution, and refer to the
Owner’s Manual for more details.

seats. Such changes could disable the system or prevent
the airbags from activating correctly, resulting in death or
serious injury.
