Seats
While the vehicle is being driven, all ve-
hicle occupants should have the seatback
upright, sit well back in the seat and prop-
erly wear the seat belts provided.
CAUTION
Do not drive the vehicle unless the
occupants are properly seated. Do
not allow any passengers to sit on
top of a foldeddown seatback, or
in the luggage compartment or car-
go area. Persons not properly
seated and/or not properly re-
strained by seat belts can be se-
verely injured in the event of emer-
gency braking or a collision.
During driving, do not allow any
passengers to stand up or move
around between seats. Otherwise,
severe injuries can occur in the
event of emergency braking or a
collision.
Driver seat
CAUTION
The SRS driver airbag deploys with
considerable force, and can cause
death or serious injury especially if
the driver is very close to the airbag.
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (“NHTSA”) advises:
Since the risk zone for driver 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 sever-
al ways:
Move your seat to the rear as far
as you can while still reaching the
pedals 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, nonslippery 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 by NHTSA above, while
still maintaining control of the foot
pedals, steering wheel, and your view
of the instrument panel controls.

The seat belt pretensioner system con-
sists mainly of the following components,
and their locations are shown in the il-
lustration.1. Front airbag sensors
2. SRS warning light
3. Seat belt pretensioner assemblies
4. Airbag sensor assembly
The seat belt pretensioners are controlled
by the airbag sensor assembly. The airbag
sensor assembly consists of a safing sen-
sor and airbag sensor. When the seat belt pretensioners are acti-
vated, an operating noise may be heard
and a small amount of non
−toxic gas may
be released. This does not indicate that
a fire is occurring. This gas is normally
harmless.
Once the seat belt pretensioners have
been activated, the seat belt retractors
remain locked.
CAUTION
Do not modify, remove, strike or
open the seat belt pretensioner as-
semblies, airbag sensor or sur-
rounding area or wiring. Failure to
follow these instructions may pre-
vent the seat belt pretensioners
from activating correctly, cause sud-
den operation of the system or dis-
able the system, which could result
in death or serious injury.
Do not use tires or wheels other
than the manufacturer ’s recom-
mended size. Such a use may cause
the curtain shield airbags and seat
belt pretensioners to inflate acci-
dentally, resulting in death or seri-
ous injury. For details, see “Check-
ing and replacing tires” on page
323.
Do not place luggage heavier than
specified on the roof luggage carri-
er. Such luggage may cause the
curtain shield airbags and seat belt
pretensioners to inflate accidentally,
resulting in death or serious injury.
For details, see “Roof luggage car-
rier” on page 218.
Do not modify or change the sus-
pension system. Such changes may
cause the curtain shield airbags to
inflate accidentally, resulting in
death or serious injury.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or serious inju-
ries. Consult your Toyota dealer
about any repair and modification.

65
Do not put anything or any part of
your body on or in front of the
dashboard or steering wheel pad
that houses the front airbag sys-
tem. They might restrict inflation or
cause death or serious injury as
they are projected rearward by the
force of deploying airbags. Like-
wise, the driver and front passenger
should not hold objects in their
arms or on their knees.
Do not modify or remove any wir-
ing. Do not modify, remove, strike
or open any components such as
the steering wheel pad, steering
wheel, column cover, dashboard
near the front passenger airbag,
front passenger airbag or airbag
sensor assembly. Doing so may pre-
vent the front airbag system from
activating correctly, cause sudden
activation of the system or disable
the system, resulting in death or
serious injury.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or serious injury.
Consult your Toyota dealer about any
repair and modification.NOTICE
Do not perform any of the following
changes without consulting your
Toyota dealer. Such changes can
interfere with proper operation of the
SRS front airbag system in some
cases.
 Installation of electronic devices
such as a mobile twoway radio,
cassette tape player or compact
disc player
 Modification of the suspension sys-
tem
 Modification of the front end struc-
ture
 Attachment of a grille guard (bull
bar, kangaroo bar, etc.), snowplow,
winches or any other equipment to
the front end
 Repairs made on or near the front
fenders, front end structure, con-
sole, steering column, steering
wheel or dashboard near the front
passenger airbag

13c800b
Do not attach a microphone or any
other device or object around the
area where the curtain shield airbag
activates such as on the windshield
glass, side door glass, front, center
and roof side garnish, roof interior
or assist grips. When the curtain
shield airbag inflates, the micro-
phone or other device or object will
be thrown away with great force or
the curtain shield airbag may not
activate correctly, resulting in death
or serious injury.
Do not hook a hanger, heavy or
sharp pointed objects on the coat
hook. If the curtain shield airbags
inflate, those items will be thrown
away with great force or the curtain
shield airbags may not activate cor-
rectly, resulting in death or serious
injury. When you hang clothes,
hang them on the coat hook direct-
ly.
Do not use seat accessories which
cover the parts where the side air-
bags inflate. Such accessories may
prevent the side airbags from acti-
vating correctly, causing death or
serious injury.
Do not modify or replace the seats
or upholstery of the seats with side
airbags. Such changes may prevent
the side airbag system from activat-
ing correctly, disable the system or
cause the side airbags to inflate ac-
cidentally, resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
Do not disassemble or repair the
front and rear pillars and roof side
rails containing the curtain shield
airbags. Such changes may disable
the system or cause the curtain
shield airbags to inflate accidental-
ly, resulting in death or serious in-
jury.
Do not modify or change the sus-
pension system. Such changes may
cause the curtain shield airbags to
inflate accidentally, resulting in
death or serious injury.
Do not use tires or wheels other
than the manufacturer ’s recom-
mended size. Such a use may cause
the curtain shield airbags to inflate
accidentally, resulting in death or
serious injury. For details, see
“Checking and replacing tires” on
page 323.

The brake actuator temperature increases
during the active traction control system
or vehicle stability control system operat-
ing. If the brake actuator temperature be-
comes too high while the active traction
control system or vehicle stability control
system is operating, a buzzer will start to
sound intermittently to indicate that the
active traction control system can no lon-
ger operate. In this case, immediately stop
your vehicle at a safe place. If the system
continues to operate, the buzzer sound
changes from intermittent to continuous.
(The continuous buzzer sounds for about
3 seconds.) At the time, the “VSC/TRAC”
warning light will come on and the active
traction control system temporarily stops
operating in order to protect the brake
actuator. (Although the active traction con-
trol system does not operate, there is no
problem to continue your driving.) The
system will be automatically restored after
a short time and “VSC/TRAC” warning
light goes off if the accelerator pedal is
released.
When the “ABS” warning light come on,
the active traction control system is not
operating.
The “VSC/TRAC” warning light will come
on when the ignition key is turned “ON”,
and will go off after a few seconds.The “VSC/TRAC” warning light may stay
on for 60 seconds after the ignition key
is turned to “ON” position. It is normal if
it goes off after a few seconds.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the “VSC/TRAC” warning
light. It is normal if it goes off after a few
seconds.
When the “VSC/TRAC” warning light
comes on the active traction control sys-
tem is not operating, but there is no prob-
lem if you continue to drive.
In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer:
The “VSC/TRAC” warning light does not
come on after the ignition key is turned
“ON”.
The “VSC/TRAC” remains on after the
ignition key is turned “ON”.
CAUTION
Under certain slippery road condi-
tions, full traction of the vehicles and
power to 4 wheels may not be main-
tained, even though the active trac-
tion control system is in operation.
Do not drive the vehicle under any
speed or maneuvering conditions
which will cause the vehicle to lose
traction. In situations where the road
surface is covered with ice or snow,
your vehicle should be fitted with
snow tires or tire chains. Always
drive at an appropriate and cautious
speed for the road conditions pres-
ent.

149
Stop your vehicle at a safe place as soon
as possible and check that the tire infla-
tion pressure is as specified on the tire
and loading information label. If the low
tire pressure warning light comes on even
after tire inflation pressure adjustment, it
is probable that you have a flat tire. If
the tire goes flat, change to the spare
tire. (See page 275.)
The spare tire is not equipped with the
tire pressure sensor. So, the low tire
pressure warning light remains on even if
the spare tire is mounted.
The light goes off a few minutes after air
is put into the deflated tire.CAUTION
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on, observe the following in-
structions:
Decelerate as soon as possible to
the most appropriate speed that
conditions permit.
Avoid abrupt steering wheel maneu-
vering and braking. If the vehicle
tires deteriorate, you could lose
control of the steering wheel or the
brakes, causing death or serious in-
jury.
The warning system may not acti-
vate immediately if bursts or sud-
den air leakage should occur.
Each tire, including the spare (if pro-
vided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehicle
manufacture on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label. (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure la-
bel, you should consult the appropri-
ate section of the owner ’s manual to
determine the proper tire inflation
pressure.) When the low tire pressure
telltale is illuminated, one or more of
your tires is significantly underin-
flated. You should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure as
indicated on the vehicle’s tire infor-
mation placard. Driving on a signifi-
cantly underinflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Underinflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and
may affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.

152
Reorient or relocate the receiving an-
tenna.
Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet
on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio / TV technician for help.
FCC WARNING:
Changes or modifications not ex-
pressly approved by the party respon-
sible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equip-
ment.
—Replacing tires and wheels
As you might have difficulty in locating
a flat or deflated tire, a tire pressure
warning system should be installed on
the tires of this vehicle.
When replacing the wheels, be sure to
install tire pressure sensors on the
wheels.
There are 3 ways to set up the tire pres-
sure sensors: a. Remove the sensor from the old wheel and install it to the new wheel.
b. Keep the same wheel with tire pres- sure sensor and replace the tire alone.
c. Use a new wheel and sensor.
You have to register an ID code for a
new sensor. Up to 2 sets of codes
can be registered. As one ID for the
originally installed sensor is registered
at “MAIN” of the selector switch, use
the “2nd” position to register an ID for
the new sensor.
You do not need to re −register the ID
code for any other replacements. For
the use of the originally installed tires,
put the selector switch at “MAIN” and
for the use of tires set purchased later,
put the switch at “2nd”. For the sen-
sor selector switch, see page 154.NOTICE
 Have the tires, wheels or sensors
replaced and ID codes registered by
Toyota dealer. If you need sensors,
purchase from Toyota dealer.
 The sensor nuts should always be
tightened to a torque of 4 N·m (0.4
kgf·m, 2.9 ft·lbf).
 The use of nongenuine wheels will
cause the tire pressure sensors to
transmit the electronic code in dif-
ferent manner, resulting in the fail-
ure of the system.
 Initialization should be performed
with the tires adjusted with the
tires adjusted at the specified set
tire inflation pressure. If they are
not adjusted properly, tire inflation
pressure to be warned will not be
appropriate. It takes about 20 min-
utes for initialization. Leave the
ignition on for about 20 minutes
after initialization.

TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM RE-
SET SWITCH
The tire pressure warning system needs
to be initialized in the following condi-
tions:
After changing the set pressure
along with the change of the loading
condition or vehicle speed condition
After replacing the ECU
After replacing or tires or wheels
After replacing the tire pressure sen-
sor
When initializing the system, the pres-
ent tire condition is stored as a stan-
dard. To initialize the system, perform the fol-
lowing:
1. Park the vehicle at a safe place and apply the parking brake. Stop the en-
gine.
2. Adjust the pressure of all the installed tires to the specified level. (See
“Tires” on page 344.)
3. Start the engine.
4. Push and hold the reset switch until the low tire pressure warning light
blinks three times.
Do not turn the engine off for about 20
minutes until initialization is complete.
16C522a
When initializing the system, make sure
the low tire pressure warning light blinks
three times. If the warning light does not
blink three times, initialization failed and
the tire pressure warning system will not
function properly. In this case, initialize
the system again.
Do not push the reset switch without ad-
justing the tire inflation pressure to the
specified level. Otherwise, the low tire
pressure warning light may not come on
even if the tire inflation pressure is low,
or it may come on when the tire inflation
pressure is actually normal.
If you push the reset switch while the
vehicle is moving, initialization is not per-
formed.

154
If the low tire pressure warning light does
not blink when you push and hold the
reset switch, have the tire pressure warn-
ing system checked at your Toyota dealer.
NOTICE
Do not turn the engine switch off
during initialization, or the system
may not function properly due to
incomplete initialization.
 Check which tires are being used
before initialization of the system,
and also check the selector switch
position. (See the following “Selec-
tor switch”.)
—Selector switch
16C524a
1. Main position
2. 2nd position
The selector switch is located in the
glove box.
The ID code is given in the tire pres-
sure sensor. To activate the tire pres-
sure warning system, it is necessary to
register the ID code of the sensor on
the selector switch in the vehicle.
2 sets of ID codes can be registered.
The code of the tires originally installed
on the vehicle is registered on the switch
at “MAIN”. Have a new tires set with
new tire pressure sensors registered at
“2nd” by Toyota dealer. ID codes should be registered by Toyota
dealer. Once registered, change the set-
ting position each time you purchase tires
and wheels. Re
−registration is not re-
quired.
When purchasing new tires, consult your
Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
When the tires whose ID code is
registered at “MAIN” are used, the
system does not work properly with
the selector switch set at “2nd”. If
the tires whose ID code is registered
at “2nd” are stored nearby, the sys-
tem will detect their tire inflation
pressure (and vice versa).

158
This active height control suspension
controls the vehicle height depending
on the vehicle driving condition. Select
your desired height among the “HI”
(high), “N” (normal) and “LO” (low)
modes with the height select switch.(a) Vehicle height modes
“HI” (high) mode—
The vehicle height is about 40 mm (1.6
in.) higher at front and about 50 mm
(2.0 in.) higher at rear than the normal
mode height.
This mode is suitable when driving on the
bumpy roads and through water.
This mode is available when the vehicle
speed is under about 30 km/h (19 mph).
CAUTION
The “HI” (high) or “Extra high” mode
should be used for severe offroad
driving condition only. Because the
vehicle’s center of gravity is higher in
this setting, the vehicle may become
unstable when turning abruptly, re-
sulting in an accident.
When the four
−wheel drive control lever is
put at “L”, this mode may change to the
extra high mode automatically in accor-
dance with the driving condition. When the vehicle exceeds the specified
vehicle speed, the vehicle height
changes to the following:
With the fourwheel drive control lever
at “H” and at the vehicle speed of 30
km/h (19 mph) or over,
the normal mode
is automatically selected.
With the fourwheel drive control lever
at “L” and at the vehicle speed of 50
km/h (30 mph) or over, the vehicle height
becomes automatically about 25 mm (1.0
in.) higher than the normal mode height.
If the vehicle speed is lowered about 20
km/h (12 mph) or less after that, the high
mode automatically resumes.
