WARNING
■While driving
●Do not adjust the position of the driver's seat.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce
the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint, increasing the risk of
death or serious injury to the driver or passenger.
● Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the s eat
tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an acci-
dent resulting in serious injury or death. The adjustment mecha nism may
also be damaged.
■ Adjusting the seat position
●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passen-
gers are not injured by the moving seat.
● Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts t o avoid
injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.

SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System airbag)
The SRS airbags inflate when the vehicle is subjected to certain
types of severe impacts that may cause significant injury to th e
occupants. They work together with the seat belts to help reduc e the
risk of death or serious injury.
SRS: This stands for supplement al restraint system. This name is
used because the airbag system s upplements the vehicle’s seat
belts.
Models with SRS airbags and seat belts for driver, front pas-
senger, and rear passengers
Your vehicle is equipped with a supplemental restraint system i n
addition to a seat belt at each front seating positions and eac h rear
seating positions. The supplemental restraint system (SRS) con-
sists of six airbags. The conf igurations are as follows.

■When you sell your vehicle
When you sell your vehicle, we urge you to explain to the buyer that it is
equipped with SRS airbags by alerti ng the buyer to the applicable section in
this Owner’s Manual.
Driver’s and front passe nger’s frontal airbags
Driver’s and front pas senger’s side airbags
Curtain shield airbags (for driver, front passenger, and rear p as-
sengers)
These SRS airbags are designed only as a supplement to the pri-
mary protection prov ided by the seat belt.
The system also controls front s eat belt pretensioners. For opera-
tion instructions and precautions concerning the seat belt pret en-
sioner, refer to “Seat belt pretensioners”. (

WARNING
■
SRS airbag
●To obtain maximum protection in the event of an accident, the d river and
all passengers in the vehicle should always wear seat belts whe n the vehi-
cle is moving. The SRS airbag is designed only to be a supplement to the
primary protection provided by the seat belt. It does not elimi nate the need
to fasten seat belts. In combination with the seat belts, it of fers the best
combined protection in case of a serious accident.
Not wearing a seat belt increases the chance of severe injury o r death in a
crash even when the vehicle has the SRS airbag.
For instructions and precautions concerning the seat belt syste m, refer to
“Seat belts”. ( P. 60)
● Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close to the SRS airbag. Becau se the
SRS airbag deploys with considerable speed - faster than the blink of an
eye - and force to protect in high speed collisions, the force of an airbag
can injure an occupant whose body is too close to SRS airbag.
It is also important to wear your seat belt to help avoid injur ies that can
result when the SRS airbag contacts an occupant not in proper p osition
such as one thrown forward during pre-accident braking.
Even when properly positioned, there remains a possibility that an occu-
pant may suffer minor injury such as abrasions and bruises to the face or
arms because of the SRS airbag deployment force.
● The SRS airbags deploy with considerable speed and force. Occup ants
who are out of proper position when the SRS airbag deploys could suffer
very serious injuries. Because the SRS airbag needs enough spac e for
deployment, the driver should always sit upright and well back in the seat
as far from the steering wheel as practical while still maintai ning full vehi-
cle control and the front passenger should move the seat as far back as
possible and sit upright and well back in the seat.
● Do not place any objects over or near the SRS airbag cover or b etween
you and the SRS airbag. If the SRS airbag deploys, those object s could
interfere with its proper operation and could be propelled insi de the vehicle
and cause injury.

92 1-7. Safety information
WARNING
■SRS airbag
●Put children aged 12 and under in the
rear seat properly restrained at all
times. The SRS airbag deploys with
considerable speed and force and can
injure or even kill children, especially if
they are 12 years of age and under and
are not restrained or improperly
restrained. Because children are lighter
and weaker than adults, their risk of
being injured from deployment is
greater.
For that reason, we strongly recom-
mend that ALL children (including those
in child seats and those that have out-
grown child restraint devices) sit in the
REAR seat properly restrained at all
times in a child restraint device or in a
seat belt, whichever is appropriate for
the child's age, height and weight.
Secure ALL types of child restraint
devices (including forward facing child
seats) in the REAR seats at all times.
According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seating positions than in the
front seating positions.
For instructions and precautions con-
cerning the child restraint system, refer
to “Child restraint systems”. ( P. 137)

Toyota advanced frontal airbag systemYour vehicle is equipped with a Toyota advanced frontal airbag sys-
tem that complies with the new advanced frontal airbag requirem ents
in the amended Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No .
208.
The Toyota advanced frontal airbag system automatically determines
the deployment force of the driv er’s SRS frontal airbag at the time of
deployment as well as whether or not to activate the front pass en-
ger’s SRS frontal airbag and, if activated, the deployment force of the
SRS frontal airbag at the time of deployment.
Your vehicle has warning labels on the driver’s and front passe nger’s
sun visors beginning with the phrase “EVEN WITH ADVANCED AIR
BAGS” and a tag attached to the glove box lid beginning with th e
phrase “Even with Advanced Air Bags”. Make sure that you carefu lly
read the instructions on the warning labels and tag.
Always wear your seat belt. The Toyota advanced frontal airbag sys-
tem is a supplemental restraint system and must be used in comb ina-
tion with a seat belt. All occupa nts should wear a seat belt or be
seated in an appropriate c hild restraint system.
The driver’s SRS frontal airbag is stowed in the center portion of the
steering wheel. The front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag is sto wed
near the top of the dashboard under an “SRS AIRBAG” mark.
In a moderate to severe frontal collision, the following compon ents
deploy.
● SRS frontal airbag for driver
● SRS frontal airbag for front passenger
These components suppl ement the seat belts by reducing the impact
to the occupant’s head and chest.

Before driving
■
Driver’s SRS frontal airbag
The driver’s SRS frontal airbag uses a dual stage inflator. The inflator oper-
ates in different ways depending on the severity of impact.
Have the system inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately if the SRS
warning light illuminates.
NOTE
The driver’s SRS side airbag and SRS curtain shield airbag are not con-
trolled by the Toyota advanced frontal airbag system.
■ Front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag
The front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag uses a dual stage inflator. The
inflator operates in different ways depending on the severity of impact.
The occupant classification system sensor is installed under th e seat uphol-
stery and monitors the physique and posture of the front passen ger. Using
this information, the occupant classification system determines whether the
front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag should be deployed or not.
The occupant classification system may not inflate the front passenger’s
SRS frontal airbag even when the driver’s SRS frontal airbag de ploys. This
is normal. In this case, although the front passenger’s SRS fro ntal airbag
does not operate, the front passenger’s seat belt pretensioner operates with
the driver’s seat belt pretensioner. For details about the seat belt preten-
sioner, refer to “Seat belt pretensioners”. ( P. 61)
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may prevent the Toyota
advanced frontal airbag system from functioning correctly or ca use the sys-
tem to fail.
● Do not apply any strong impact to the front passenger’s seat.
● Do not spill liquid on the front passenger’s seat. If liquid is spilled, wipe it
off immediately.
● Do not remove or disassemble the front passenger’s seat.
● Do not install any accessory (such as an audio amplifier) other than a
genuine Toyota accessory under the front passenger’s seat.
● Do not place anything (shoes, umbrella, etc.) under the front p assenger’s
seat.
● Do not place a magnet near the seat belt buckle.

98 1-7. Safety information
If the seat belt buckle switch and/or front passenger’s occupant classification
system have failed, the SRS warning light will illuminate. Have the system
inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately if the SRS warning light illumi-
nates.
If your vehicle has sustained impact, this may affect the proper function of
the Toyota advanced frontal airbag system. Have your vehicle in spected at
your Toyota dealer. Do not use the front passenger’s seat while driving the
vehicle to your Toyota dealer.
NOTE
The front passenger’s SRS side airbag and SRS curtain shield ai rbag are
not controlled by the Toyota advanced frontal airbag system.
■ Passenger’s frontal airba g ON and OFF indicators
P. 128
■ Occupant classification system
The occupant classification system sensor is installed under th e seat uphol-
stery and monitors the physique and posture of the front passen ger. Using
this information, the occupant classification system determines whether the
front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag should be deployed or not.
If the front passenger’s seat cushion is wet, this may adversel y affect the
ability of the system to determine deployment. If the seat cush ion is wet, the
front passenger should stop sitting on the front passenger’s se at. Wipe off
liquid from the seat immediately, let the seat dry naturally an d then check the
SRS warning light as follows.
● If the SRS warning light illuminates, keep the seat dry until t he warning
light turns off. If the SRS warning light stays on even when th e seat has
dried, do not allow anyone to sit on the front passenger’s seat and have
the system checked by your Toyota dealer.
● If the SRS warning light does not illuminate, check that the fr ont passen-
ger’s frontal airbag ON and OFF indicators work properly. If th e indicators
do not work properly, do not allow anyone to sit on the front p assenger’s
seat and have the system checked by your Toyota dealer.

100 1-7. Safety information
■If the front passenger’s frontal a irbag ON indicator illuminates and the
OFF indicator turns off even when an infant or a small child is in a child
restraint system (incl uding booster seat)
Turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without a smart key
system), or turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch off (vehicles w ith a
smart key system) if the front passenger’s frontal airbag ON in dicator illumi-
nates and the OFF indicator turns off even when an infant or a small child is
in a child restraint system (including booster seat). Remove th e child
restraint system from the seat. By referring to the child restraint manufac-
turer’s recommendations as well as the child restraint system installation
procedures in “Child restraint systems” ( P. 137), correctly install the child
restraint system. Turn the engine switch to the “ON” position ( vehicles with-
out a smart key system), or turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to IGNI-
TION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system) and make sure that the
front passenger’s frontal airbag ON indicator turns off and the OFF indicator
illuminates.
If still the ON indicator remains illuminated while the OFF ind icator turns off,
take the following actions.
● Ensure that no article is placed on the seat other than the chi ld restraint
system and the child occupant.
● Ensure that the backward-forward position and seatback of front passen-
ger’s seat are locked into place securely by moving the seat back and
forth.
If the ON indicator still remains illuminated while the OFF indicator turns off
after taking relevant corrective actions described above, reloc ate the child
restraint system to the rear seat and immediately contact your Toyota dealer
for an inspection.
NOTE
When a child who has outgrown a child restraint system or a sma ll adult is
seated in the front passenger’s seat, the Toyota advanced front al airbag sys-
tem may or may not activate the front passenger’s SRS frontal a irbag
depending on the occupant’s seating posture. The child should a lways wear
the seat belt when sitting in the seat irrespective of whether the airbag is
deactivated or activated. If the front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag is acti-
vated (the ON indicator remains illuminated while the OFF indic ator turns
off), take the following actions.
