■Types of collisions that may not 
deploy the SRS  airbags (SRS 
side and curtain shield airbags)
The SRS side and curtain shield air-
bags may not activate if the vehicle 
is subjected to a c ollision from the 
side at certain angl es, or a collision 
to the side of the vehicle body other 
than the passenger compartment.
●Collision from the s ide to the vehi-
cle body other than the passenger 
compartment
●Collision from the s ide at an angle
The SRS curtain shield airbags do 
not generally inflate if the vehicle is 
involved in a rear  collision, if it 
pitches end over end, or if it is 
involved in a low-speed side or 
low-speed fron tal collision.
●Collision from the rear
●Pitching end over end
■When to contact your Toyota 
dealer
In the following ca ses, the vehicle 
will require inspecti on and/or repair. 
Contact your Toyota dealer as soon 
as possible.
●Any of the SRS airbags have 
been inflated.
●The front of the v ehicle is dam-
aged or deformed, or was 
involved in an accident that was  not severe enough to cause the 
SRS front airbags to inflate.
●A portion of a door or its surround-
ing area is damaged, deformed or 
has had a hole made in it, or the 
vehicle was involved in an acci-
dent that was not severe enough 
to cause the SRS side and curtain 
shield airbags to inflate.
●The pad section of the steering 
wheel, dashboard near the front 
passenger airbag or lower portion 
of the instrument panel is 
scratched, cracked, or otherwise

WARNING
●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, steering 
wheel pad and lower portion of 
the instrument panel.
These items can become pro-
jectiles when the SRS driver, 
front passenger and knee air-
bags deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas 
such as a door, windshield, side 
windows, front or rear pillar, roof 
side rail and assist grip. (Except 
for the speed limit label 
P.481)
●Do not hang coat hangers or 
other hard objects on the coat 
hooks. All of these items could 
become projectiles and may 
cause death or serious injury, 
should the SRS curtain shield 
airbags deploy.
●If a vinyl cover is put on the area 
where the SRS driver’s knee 
airbag will deploy, be sure to 
remove it.
●Do not use sea t accessories 
which cover the parts where the 
SRS side airbags and SRS seat 
cushion airbag inflate as they 
may interfere with inflation of 
the SRS airbags. Such acces-
sories may prevent the side air-
bags and seat cushion airbag 
from activating correctly, disable 
the system or cause the side 
airbags and seat cushion airbag 
to inflate accidentally, resulting 
in death or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant 
levels of force to the area of the 
SRS airbag components or the 
front doors.
Doing so can cause the SRS 
airbags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the compo-
nent parts immediately after the 
SRS airbags have deployed 
(inflated) as they may be hot.

Driving
total load capacity (vehicle 
capacity weight) of B lb. (kg), 
the available amount of cargo 
and luggage load capacity will 
be C lb. (kg) as follows:
B
*2 lb. (kg) - A*1 lb. (kg) = C*3 lb. 
(kg)
*1: A =Weight of people
*2: B =Total load capacity
*3: C =Available cargo and luggage  load
In this condition, if 3 more passen-
gers with the combined weight of D 
lb. (kg) get on, the available cargo 
and luggage load will be reduced E 
lb. (kg) as follows:
C lb. (kg) - D*4 lb. (kg) = E*5 lb. 
(kg)
*4: D =Additional weight of people
*5: E =Available cargo and luggage  load
As shown in the example above, 
if the number of occupants 
increases, the cargo and lug-
gage load will be reduced by an 
amount that equals the 
increased weight due to the 
additional occupants. In other 
words, if an increase in the num-
ber of occupants causes an 
excess of the total load capacity 
(combined weight of occupants 
plus cargo and luggage load), 
you must reduce the cargo and 
luggage on your vehicle.
WARNING
■Things that must not be car-
ried in the luggage compart-
ment
The following things may cause a 
fire if loaded in the luggage com-
partment:

line

tions.
Failure to do so may prevent the 
pedals from being depressed 
properly, may block the driver’s 
vision, or may res ult in items hit-
ting the driver or passengers, pos-
sibly causing an accident.
●Stow cargo and luggage in the 
luggage compartment when-
ever possible.

in or on the follo wing locations.
