General
recommendations for the
seats
WARNI NG
For safety reasons, seat adjustments must only be made when the vehicle is stationary.
WARNI NG
Folding or unfolding the seat backrests must only be done with the vehicle stationary.
WARNI NG
Before moving the seat backwards, ensure that there is no person or object that might prevent the full travel of the seat.There is a risk of trapping or pinching
passengers if present in the rear seats or of jamming the seat if large objects are placed on the floor behind the seat.
WARNI NG
Do not place hard or heavy objects on the backrests forming a table. They could become
dangerous projectiles in the event of sudden braking or a collision.– Do not remove a head restraint without stowing it; secure it to a support inside the vehicle.– Check that the seat belts remain accessible to the passenger and easy to fasten.– Passengers must never take their seat without adjusting and fastening their seat belt.– In row 3, be careful not to leave your feet under the row 2 seat while it is being tilted.– When a row 3 seat is in the fully folded position, ensure that the strap is correctly hooked to the Top Tether fixing of the row 2 backrest: risk of unexpected tipping of the seat.
WARNI NG
Before carrying out the manoeuvres, check that nothing and no one is obstructing the moving elements and their locking.
To avoid sudden folding, take care to hold the backrest and support it until it is horizontal.Never put your hand underneath the seat cushion to guide the seat downwards or upwards, you could get your fingers trapped. Place your hand on the grip/strap (depending on equipment) at the top of the seat cushion.
WARNI NG
Please note: an incorrectly latched backrest compromises the safety of passengers in the event of sudden braking or an impact.The contents of the boot may be thrown forward - risk of severe injury!
Front seats
Correct driving position
Before taking to the road and to make the most of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and controls, carry out these adjustments in the following order:– head restraint height.– seat backrest angle.– seat cushion height.– longitudinal seat position.– steering wheel height and reach.– rear view mirror and door mirrors.

42
ECO
Do not use the function when the seat is not occupied.Reduce the heating intensity as soon as possible.When the seat and passenger compartment have reached a satisfactory temperature, switch the function off; reducing electricity consumption in turn decreases fuel consumption.
WARNI NG
Prolonged use of the heated seats is not recommended for those with sensitive skin.There is a risk of burns for people whose perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking medication, etc.).To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent a short circuit:– do not place sharp or heavy objects on the
seat,– do not kneel or stand on the seat,– do not spill liquids onto the seat,– never use the heating function if the seat is wet.
Steering wheel
adjustment

► When stationary, pull the control lever to release the steering wheel.► Adjust the height and reach.► Lower the control lever to lock the steering wheel.
WARNI NG
As a safety precaution, these operations must only be carried out while the vehicle is stationary.

The connection of an electrical device not approved by TOYOTA, such as a USB charger, may adversely affect the operation of vehicle electrical systems, causing faults such as poor radio reception or interference with displays in the screens.
USB port(s)

Ports 1 and 2 can be used to charge a portable device.
Port 1 also enables audio files sent to your audio system to be played via the vehicle's speakers.
NOTIC E
When the USB port is used, the portable device charges automatically.A message is displayed if the power drawn by the portable device exceeds the current supplied by the vehicle.For more information on how to use this equipment, refer to the Audio equipment and telematics section .
Port 1 also allows a smartphone to be connected by MirrorLinkTM, Android Auto® or CarPlay®, enabling certain smartphone applications to be used on the touch screen.For best results, use a cable made or approved by the device manufacturer.These applications can be managed using the steering mounted controls or the audio system controls.
220 V/50 Hz socket
AC 220 V
50Hz 120W

It is located on the side of the central storage compartment.This socket (max. power: 150 W) operates with the engine running, and with the Stop & Start system in STOP mode.► Lift the protective cover.► Check that the green indicator lamp is on.► Connect your multimedia or other electrical device (telephone charger, laptop computer, CD-DVD player, bottle warmer, etc.).In the event of a malfunction, the green indicator lamp flashes.Have the socket checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
WARNI NG
Connect only one device at a time to the socket (do not use extension leads or multi-socket adapters).Connect only devices with class II insulation (shown on the device).Do not use metal-cased devices (e.g. electric shaver, etc.).
NOTIC E
As a safety measure, if power consumption is high and power is required by the vehicle's
electrical system (due to severe weather conditions, electrical overload, etc.), power to the socket may be cut off, in which case the green indicator lamp goes off.

hazard warning lamps
When braking in an emergency, depending on the rate of deceleration, the hazard warning lamps come on automatically. They switch off automatically when you next accelerate.It is also possible to switch them off by pressing the button.
Horn

► Press the central part of the steering wheel.
Electronic stability control
(ESC)
The electronic stability control programme includes the following systems:– Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD).
– Emergency braking assistance (EBA).– Anti-slip regulation (ASR).– Dynamic stability control (DSC).– Trailer stability assist (TSA).
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and Electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
These systems enhance the vehicle’s stability and handling during braking, and enable greater control while cornering, particularly on poor or slippery road surfaces.ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of emergency braking.EBFD manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.This warning lamp comes on fixed in the event of an ABS malfunction.The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive carefully at a moderate speed.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
This warning lamp, when lit together with the STOP and ABS warning lamps, accompanied by a message and an audible signal, indicates an EBFD malfunction.You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.

Airbags
System designed to contribute towards improving the safety of the occupants (with the exception of the centre seat in row 2) in the event of violent collisions.The airbags supplement the action of the force-limiting seat belts.If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors record and analyse the front and side impacts sustained in the impact detection zones:– in the event of a serious impact, the airbags are deployed instantly and contribute towards better protection of the occupants (with the exception of the centre seat in row 2); immediately after the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so that they do not hinder visibility or the exit of the occupants,– in the case of a minor or rear impact or in certain rollover conditions, the airbags may not be deployed; the seat belt alone contributes towards ensuring your protection in these situations.
WARNI NG
The airbags do not operate when the ignition is switched off.This equipment will only deploy once. If a second impact occurs (during the same or a subsequent accident), the airbag will not be deployed again.
Impact detection zones
A.Front impact zone
B.Side impact zone
NOTIC E
When one or more airbags are deployed, the detonation of the pyrotechnic charge incorporated in the system makes a noise and releases a small quantity of smoke.This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive individuals may experience slight irritation.The detonation noise associated with the deployment of one or more airbags may result in a slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front airbags

System that protects the driver and front passenger(s) in the event of a serious front impact, limiting the risk of head and chest injury.The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the steering wheel; the front passenger airbag is fitted in the roof.
Deployment
The airbags are deployed (except the front passenger airbag if it has been deactivated) in the event of a serious front impact to all or part of the frontal impact zone A, in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed from the front towards the rear of the vehicle.The front airbag inflates between the chest and head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the steering wheel, on the driver's side, and the dashboard, on the passenger side, to cushion
their forward movement.

88
WARNI NG
In the event of a minor impact or bump at the side of the vehicle or if the vehicle rolls over, the airbags may not be deployed.In the event of a rear or front collision, none of the lateral airbags are deployed.
Advice
WARNI NG
For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the safety recommendations below.Adopt a normal upright sitting position.Fasten the seat belt ensuring it is correctly positioned and adjusted.Do not leave anything between the occupants and the airbags (a child, pet, object, etc.), nor fix or attach anything close to or in the way of the airbag release trajectory; this could cause injuries during their deployment.Never modify the original definition of your vehicle, particularly in the area directly around the airbags.After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen, have the airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag systems must only be performed by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.Even if all of the precautions mentioned are observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms cannot be ruled out when an airbag is deployed. The airbag inflates almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) then deflates within the same time discharging the hot gas via openings provided for this purpose.
WARNI NG
Front airbagsDo not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.Do not fix or attach anything to the steering wheel or dashboard, as this could cause injuries when the airbags are deployed.
WARNI NG
Lateral airbagsUse only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment of the lateral airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a TOYOTA dealer.Do not fix or attach anything to the seat backrests (clothes, etc.), as this could cause injuries to the thorax or arm when the lateral airbag is deployed.Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.The vehicle's front door panels include side impact sensors.A damaged door or any unauthorised or incorrectly executed work (modification or repair) on the front doors or their interior trim could compromise the operation of these sensors - risk of malfunction of the lateral airbags!Such work must only be done by a TOYOTA
dealer or a qualified workshop.
