1-1. For safe use
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 supplemental 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 air-bag.
Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.) of inflation, placing yourself 250
mm (10 in.) 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 250 mm (10 in.) away
now, you can change your driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the ped-als comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250
mm (10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, sim-ply by reclining the back of the seat
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm,
non-slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air-bag toward your chest instead of
your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as rec- ommended above, while still main-
taining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instrument panel controls.
●The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable
force, and can cause death or seri- ous injury especially if the front pas-senger is very close to the airbag.
The front passenger seat should be as far from the airbag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the
front passenger sits upright.
●Improperly seated and/or restrained
infants and children can be killed or seriously injured by a deploying air-bag. An infant or child who is too
small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint system. Toyota strongly
recommends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats of the vehicle and properly
restrained. The rear seats are safer for infants and children than the front passenger seat. ( P. 4 9 )

For safety and security
WARNING
●Do not sit on the edge of the seat or lean against the dashboard.
●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 seat 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 or steering wheel pad.These items can become projec-
tiles when the SRS driver and front passenger airbags deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas such as a door, windshield, side window, front or rear pillar, roof side
rail and assist grip. (Except for the speed limit label P.532)
●Do not hang coat hangers or other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of these items could become pro-
jectiles and may cause death or serious injury, should the SRS cur-tain shield airbags deploy.

1-2. Child safety
For safety and security
1If installing the child restraint
system to the front passenger
seat is unavoidable, refer to
P.50 for front passenger seat
adjustment.
2 Adjust the seatback angle to the
most upright position. When
installing a forward-facing child
seat, if there is a gap between
the child seat and the seatback,
adjust the seatback angle until
good contact is achieved.
3 If the head restraint interferes
with the child restraint system
and the head restraint can be
removed, remove the head
restraint. Otherwise, put the
head restraint in the upper most
position. ( P. 2 1 1 )
4 Run the seat belt through the
child restraint system and insert
the plate into the buckle. Make
sure that the belt is not twisted.
Securely fix the seat belt to the
child restraint system in accor-
dance to the directions enclosed
with the child restraint system.
5 If your child restraint system is
not equipped with a lock-off (a
seat belt locking feature),
s e c u r e t h e c h i l d r e s t r a i n t s y s t e m
using a locking clip.
6 After installing the child restraint
system, rock it back and forth to
ensure that it is installed
securely. ( P. 6 2 )
■Removing a child restraint
system installed with a seat
belt
Press the buckle release button
and fully retract the seat belt.
When releasing the buckle, the child
restraint system may spring up due to
the rebound of the seat cushion.
Release the buckle while holding down
the child restraint system.
Since the seat belt automatically reels
itself, slowly return it to the stowing
position.
■When installing a child restraint system
You may need a locking clip to install the child restraint system. Follow the
instructions provided by the manufac- turer of the system. If your child restraint system does not provide a locking clip,
you can purchase the following item from any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer: Locking clip for child restraint system

alarm system.)
●The doors are unlocked using the mechanical key.
●A person inside the vehicle opens a door or hood, or unlocks the vehicle
using an inside lock button.
●The 12-volt battery is disconnected.
( P.547)
■Alarm-operated door lock
In the following cases, depending on the situation, the door may automatically lock to prevent improper entry into the
vehicle:
●When a person remaining in the vehi-
cle unlocks the door and the alarm is activated.
●While the alarm is activated, a person remaining in the vehicle unlocks the door.
●When recharging or replacing the 12-volt battery.
■The intrusion sensor and tilt
sensor detection
 The intrusion sensor detects
intruders or movement in the
vehicle.
 The tilt sensor detects changes
in vehicle inclination, such as
when the vehicle is towed away.
This system is designed to deter
and prevent vehicle theft but does
not guarantee absolute security
against all intrusions.
■Setting the intrusion sensor
and tilt sensor
The intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
will be set automatically when the
alarm is set. ( P. 7 7 )
■Canceling the intrusion sensor
and tilt sensor
If you are leaving pets or other
moving things inside the vehicle,
make sure to disable the intrusion
sensor and tilt sensor before setting
the alarm, as they will respond to
movement inside the vehicle.
1 Turn the power switch off.
NOTICE
■To ensure the system operates correctly
Do not modify or remove the system. If modified or removed, the proper operation of the system cannot be
guaranteed.

2-1. Electric vehicle system
WARNING
●Never try to open the service plug access hole located under the floor.
The service plug is used only when the vehicle is being serviced and is subject to high voltage.
■Road accident cautions
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of death or serious injury:
●Stop the vehicle in a safe place to
prevent subsequent accidents. While depressing the brake pedal, apply the parking brake and shift
the shift position to P to stop the EV system. Then, slowly release the brake pedal.
●Do not touch the high voltage parts, cables (orange) and connectors.
●If electric wires are exposed inside or outside your vehicle, an electric
shock may occur. Never touch exposed electric wires.
●Do not touch the traction battery if liquid is leaking from or adhered to it. If electrolyte (Organic Carbonate-
based electrolyte) from the traction battery comes into contact with the eyes or skin, it could cause blind-
ness or skin wounds. In the unlikely event that it comes into contact with the eyes or skin, wash it off immedi-
ately with a large amount of water, and seek immediate medical atten-tion.
●If electrolyte is leaking from the traction battery, do not approach the vehicle.
Even in the unlikely event that the traction battery has been damaged, the internal construction of the bat-
tery will prevent a large amount of electrolyte from leaking out. How-ever, if electrolyte leaks, vapors will
be emitted. These vapors are an irritant to skin and eyes and could cause acute poisoning if inhaled.
●Do not bring burning or high-tem-perature items close to the electro-
lyte. The electrolyte may ignite and cause a fire.
●If a fire occurs in the battery electric vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as possible. Never use a fire extin-
guisher that is not meant for electri- cal fires. Using even a small amount of water may be danger-
ous.
●If your vehicle needs to be towed,
be sure to transport the vehicle with the front wheels (2WD models) or four wheels (AWD models) raised.
If the vehicle is towed with the wheels which are connected to the electric motor (traction motor) con-
tacting the ground, electricity gener- ated by the operation of the motor may cause a fire to occur depend-
ing on the nature of the damage or malfunction. ( P.509)
