Important information about your Toyota
Occupant restraint systems
Toyota encourages you and your family to take the time to
read Section 1−3 of this Owner’s Manual carefully. In
terms of helping you understand how you can receive the
maximum benefit of the occupant restraint systems this
vehicle provides, Section 1 −3 of this Owner ’s Manual is
the most important Section for you and your family to
read.
Section 1 −3 describes the function and operation concern-
ing seats, seat belts, SRS airbags and child restraint sys-
tems of this vehicle and some potential hazards you
should be aware of. These systems work together along
with the overall structure of this vehicle in order to provide
occupant restraint in the event of a crash. The effect of
each system is enhanced when it is used properly and
together with other systems. No single occupant restraint
system can, by itself, provide you or your family with the
equal level of restraint which these systems can provide
when used together. That is why it is important for you and
your family to understand the purpose and proper use of
each of these systems and how they relate to each other.
The purpose of all occupant restraint systems is to help
reduce the possibility of death or serious injury in the
event of a collision. None of these systems, either individ-
ually or together, can ensure that there is no injury in the
event of collision. However, the more you know about
these systems and how to use them properly, the greater
your chances become of surviving an accident without
death or serious injury.
Seat belts provide the primary restraint to all occupants of
the vehicle, and every occupant of the vehicle should wear
seat belts properly at all times. Children should always be
secured in child restraint systems that are appropriate for
their age and size. SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
airbags are, as their names imply, designed to work with,
and be supplemental to, seat belts and are not substitutes
for them. SRS airbags can be very effective in reducing
the risk of head, chest and knee injuries by preventing
contact of the head, chest and knee with interior portions
of the vehicle.

KEY NUMBER PLATE
Your key number is shown on the plate.
Keep the plate in a safe place such as
your wallet, not in the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you
need additional keys, duplicates can be
made by a Toyota dealer using the key
number.
We recommend writing down the key num-
ber and storing it in a safe place.The key consists of an electronic key
and a mechanical key. The mechanical
key is for emergency use. If the elec-
tronic key does not operate, you can
open the driver ’s door using the me-
chanical key.1. Electronic keys—These keys can lock or unlock all the doors and can open
the trunk by using the wireless remote
control function or entry function of the
smart key system.
2. Mechanical keys—These keys can lock or unlock the driver’s door, glove box
and armrest door in the rear seat. Spare keys should not be left in the
cabin. In the event that a spare key is
left in the cabin, the smart key system
will remain actuated even after the
doors have been locked. Under these
circumstances, the trunk can be opened
even after the driver has exited and
locked the vehicle, increasing the dan-
ger of theft. (Refer to “OPENING
TRUNK WITH SMART KEY SYSTEM” on
page 43 in this Section.)
To protect items locked in the trunk or the
glove box when using valet parking, lock
the trunk opener switch and leave the
electronic key with the attendant. Keep the
mechanical key with you. For details about
locking the trunk opener switch, see
“—Luggage security system” on page 45
in this Section.
A transponder chip for engine immobilizer
system has been placed in the electronic
keys. These chips are needed to enable
the system to function correctly, so be
careful not to lose these keys.
