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 prop-
erly.
The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat belts.
⚫The SRS driver airbag deploys with co nsiderable force, and can cause death
or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag.
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 breastbo ne. 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 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, simply by reclin ing 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, ti lt it downward. This points the airbag
toward your chest instead of your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as recommended above, while still maintaining
control of the foot pedals, steering wh eel, and your view of the instrument
panel controls.
⚫The SRS front passenger airbag also de ploys with considerable force, and
can cause death or serious injury especially if the front passenger is very
close to the airbag. The front passenger seat should be as far from the air-
bag as possible with the seatback ad justed, so the front passenger sits
upright.
⚫A deploying airbag can cause even the de ath or serious injury of an infant or
child who is improperly seated and/or restrained. An infant or child who is
too small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child
restraint system. Toyota strongly re commends that all infants and children
be placed in the rear seats of the ve hicle and properly restrained. The rear
seats are safer for infants and child ren than the front passenger seat.

⚫Vehicles with eCall: If any of the following situat ions occur, the system is
designed to send an emergency call* to the eCall control center, notifying
them of the vehicle’s location (witho ut needing to push the “SOS” button)
and an agent will attempt to speak with the occupants to ascertain the level
of emergency and assistance required. If the occupants are unable to com-
municate, the agent automa tically treats the call as an emergency and helps
to dispatch the necessary emergency services. ( ➞P. 6 8 )
⦁ An SRS airbag is deployed.
⦁ A seat belt pretensioner is activated.
⦁ The vehicle is involved in a severe rear-end collision.
⦁ The vehicle is involved in a rollover accident.
*In some cases, the call cannot be made. ( ➞P. 7 0 )
⬛Types of collisions that may depl oy SRS airbags (SRS front airbags)
⚫The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the
set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to a frontal collision at
the speed of approx. 20 to 30 km/h (12 to 18 mph) against a fixed wall that
will not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity of th e airbag deployment will be considera-
bly higher in the following situations:
⦁ When the vehicle collides with a concrete wall or guardrail at an angle of
about 30° or more to the front
⦁ If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which
can move or deform on impact
⦁ If the vehicle is involved in an unde rride collision, such as a collision in
which the front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes under, is pinned under
a truck
⚫Depending on the type of co llision, it is possible that only the seat belt pre-
tensioners will activate.
⬛Types of collisions that may deploy SRS airbags (SRS side and curtain
shield airbags)
✽
⚫The SRS side and curtain shield airbags wi ll deploy in the event of an impact
that exceeds the set threshold level (t he level of force corresponding to a
perpendicular collision of an approx imately 1.5-ton vehicle traveling at
approximately 50 km/h (31 mph) into the cabin of the vehicle).
⚫The right and left SRS side and curtain shield airbags will also deploy in a
frontal collision if the force of th e collision is particularly strong.

1-2. Safety information for children
When children are in the vehicle
Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehicle.
⚫Children should always use a seat belt. When a child who cannot prop-
erly wear the seat belt is in the ve hicle, use a proper child restraint sys-
tem. ( ➞P. 49)
⚫It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid accidental
contact with the device that operates the vehicle.
⚫Use the child-protector lock (➞ P. 135) and window lock switch
( ➞ P. 160) to prevent children from opening doors or accidentally oper-
ating power windows while the vehicle is in motion.
⚫Do not let small children operate equipment which may catch or pinch
body parts, such as power wind ows, hood, doors, seats, etc.
WARNING
⚫Never leave children unattended in the ve hicle. High temperatures inside the
vehicle can cause heatstroke and dehydr ation, which can cause death or a seri-
ous health hazard.
Also, children may operate devices inside the vehicle and get caught in the
door window or move a device that oper ates the vehicle, leading to an unfore-
seen accident.
⚫When children are in the vehicle, please refer to P. 49, which provides precau-
tions for ensuring your child’s safety, dire ctions on installing child restraint sys-
tems, and other related information.

Child restraint systems
Before installing a child restraint system in the vehicle, there are pre-
cautions that need to be observed, different types of child restraint
systems, as well as installation methods, etc., written in this manual.
⚫Use a child restraint system when ri ding with a small child that cannot
properly use a seat belt. For the child’s safety, install the child restraint
system to a rear seat.
Be sure to follow the installation method that is in the operation man-
ual enclosed with the restraint system.
⚫The use of a Toyota genuine child restraint system is recommended,
as it is safer to use in this vehicle.
Toyota genuine child restraint syst ems are made specifically for Toy-
ota vehicles. They can be purchased at a Toyota dealer.
Points to remember
⚫Prioritize and observe the warnings, as well as the laws and regulations
for child restraint systems.
⚫Use a child restraint system until the child becomes large enough to
properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
⚫Choose a child restraint system appropriate to the age and size of the
child.
⚫Note that not all child restraint systems can fit in all vehicles. Before
using or purchasing a child restraint system, check the compatibility of
the child restraint system with seat positions. (➞P. 55)

WARNING
⬛When a child is riding
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
⚫For effective protection in automobile accidents and sudden stops, a child
must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system which
is correctly installed. For installation details, refer to the operation manual
enclosed with the child restraint syst em. General installation instruction is
provided in this manual.
⚫Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that con-
forms to the weight and size of the child, installed on the rear seat. Accord-
ing to accident statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat.
⚫Holding a child in your or someone else ’s arms is not a substitute for a child
restraint system. In an accident, the child can be crushed against the wind-
shield or between the holder and the interior of the vehicle.
⬛Handling the child restraint system
If the child restraint system is not properly fixed in place, the child or other
passengers may be seriously injured or even caused death in the event of sud-
den braking, sudden swerving, or an accident.
⚫If the vehicle were to receive a strong im pact from an accident, etc., it is pos-
sible that the child restraint system has damage that is not readily visible. In
such cases, do not reuse the restraint system.
⚫Depending on the child restraint syst em, installation may be difficult or
impossible. In those cases, check whether the child restraint system is suita-
ble for installment in the vehicle. (➞ P. 5 5 )
⚫Be sure to install and observe the us age rules after carefully reading the
child restraint system fixing method in this manual, as well as the operation
manual enclosed with the child restraint system.
⚫Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat even if it is not
in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the passenger
compartment.
⚫If it is necessary to detach the child re straint system, remove it from the vehi-
cle or store it securely in the luggage compartment.
