56 1-3. Adjustable components (seats, mirrors, steering wheel)
■Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also
lock if you lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to
extend so that you can move around fully.
■Automatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger's shoulder belt is completely extended and then
retracted even slightly, the belt is locked in that position and cannot be
extended. This feature is used to hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly.
To free the belt again, fully retract the belt and then pull the belt out once
more. (P. 129)
■Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle are principally designed for persons of adult
size.
●Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat belt.
(P. 125)
●When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat
belt, follow the instructions on P. 54 regarding seat belt usage.

58 1-3. Adjustable components (seats, mirrors, steering wheel)
■Replacing the belt after the pretensioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensioner will activate
for the first collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent colli-
sions.
CAUTION
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
■Wearing a seat belt
●Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
●Always wear a seat belt properly.
●Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt
for more than one person at once, including children.
●Scion recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always
use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
●To achieve a proper seating position, do not recline the seat more than
necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting
up straight and well back in the seats.
●Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.
●Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.

Before driving
CAUTION
■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. 125)

Before driving
Scion advanced frontal airbag system
Your vehicle is equipped with a Scion advanced frontal airbag system
that complies with the new advanced frontal airbag requirements in
the amended Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No.
208.
The Scion advanced frontal airbag system automatically determines
the deployment force of the driver’s SRS frontal airbag at the time of
deployment as well as whether or not to activate the front passen-
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 passenger’s
sun visors beginning with the phrase “EVEN WITH ADVANCED AIR
BAGS” and a tag attached to the glove box lid beginning with the
phrase “Even with Advanced Air Bags”. Make sure that you carefully
read the instructions on the warning labels and tag.
Always wear your seat belt. The Scion advanced frontal airbag sys-
tem is a supplemental restraint system and must be used in combina-
tion with a seat belt. All occupants should wear a seat belt or be
seated in an appropriate child 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 stowed
near the top of the dashboard under an “SRS AIRBAG” mark.
In a moderate to severe frontal collision, the following components
deploy.
●SRS frontal airbag for driver
●SRS frontal airbag for front passenger
These components supplement the seat belts by reducing the impact
to the occupant’s head and chest.

92 1-7. Safety information
Also, if luggage or electronic devices are placed on the front passenger’s
seat, this may adversely affect the ability of the system to determine deploy-
ment. This may prevent the front passenger’s frontal airbag ON and OFF
indicators from working properly. Check that the indicators work properly.
When the OFF indicator turns off and the ON indicator illuminates, the front
passenger’s frontal airbag may deploy during a collision. Remove luggage
and electronic devices from the front passenger’s seat.
NOTE
This device complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules. This device may cause
interference. If this device causes interference, consult the nearest Scion
dealer. Also, for maintenance of the system, consult the nearest Scion
dealer.
■Conditions in which front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag is not acti-
vated
The front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag will not be activated when any of
the following conditions are met regarding the front passenger’s seat:
●The seat is empty.
●The seat is equipped with an appropriate child restraint system and an
infant is restrained in it.
●The occupant changed their posture after the occupant load is judged.
●The front passenger’s occupant classification system is malfunctioning.
CAUTION
When the front passenger’s seat is occupied by an infant in an appropriate
child restraint system, observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may
interfere with the proper operation of the occupant classification system, acti-
vating the front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag even though that seat is occu-
pied by the infant in the child restraint system.
●Do not place any article (including electronic devices) on the seat other than
the infant in the child restraint system.
●Do not place more than one infant in the child restraint system.

Before driving
■If the front passenger’s frontal airbag ON indicator illuminates and the
OFF indicator turns off even when an infant or a small child is in a child
restraint system (including booster seat)
Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch off if the front passenger’s frontal
airbag ON indicator illuminates and the OFF indicator turns off even when an
infant or a small child is in a child restraint system (including booster seat).
Remove the child restraint system from the seat. By referring to the child
restraint manufacturer’s recommendations as well as the child restraint sys-
tem installation procedures in “Child restraint systems” (P. 125), correctly
install the child restraint system. Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to
IGNITION ON mode 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 indicator turns off,
take the following actions.
●Ensure that no article is placed on the seat other than the child 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, relocate the child
restraint system to the rear seat and immediately contact your Scion dealer
for an inspection.
NOTE
When a child who has outgrown a child restraint system or a small adult is
seated in the front passenger’s seat, the Scion advanced frontal airbag sys-
tem may or may not activate the front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag
depending on the occupant’s seating posture. The child should always 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 indicator turns
off), take the following actions.

94 1-7. Safety information
●Ensure that no article is placed on the seat other than the occupant.
If the ON indicator still remains illuminated while the OFF indicator turns off
despite the fact that the actions noted above have been taken, seat the
child/small adult in the rear seat and immediately contact your Scion dealer
for an inspection. Even if the system has passed the dealer inspection, it is
recommended that on subsequent trips the child/small adult always take the
rear seat.
Children who have outgrown a child restraint system should always wear the
seat belt irrespective of whether the airbag is deactivated or activated.
■Conditions in which front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag is activated
The front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag will be activated for deployment
upon impact when any of the following conditions are met regarding the front
passenger’s seat.
●When the seat is occupied by an adult.
●When a certain item(s) (e.g. jug of water) is placed on the seat.
