Spark ignition system of
your Toyota
The spark ignition system in your Toyota meets all re-
quirements of the Canadian Interference−Causing Equip-
ment Standard.
Installation of a mobile
two−way radio system
As the installation of a mobile two−way radio system in
your vehicle could affect electronic systems such as
multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel
injection system, cruise control system, anti−lock brake
system, traction control system, vehicle skid control sys-
tem, SRS airbag system and seat belt pretensioner sys-
tem, be sure to check with your Toyota dealer for pre-
cautionary measures or special instructions regarding
installation.
Scrapping of your Toyota
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in
your Toyota contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle
is scrapped with the airbags and pretensioners left as
they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat
belt pretensioner removed and disposed of by the quali-
fied service shop or by your Toyota dealer before you
dispose of your vehicle.

OPEN POWER SLIDING DOOR
WARNING LIGHT AND BUZZER
This light on the instrument panel comes
on if the power sliding door is not com-
pletely closed with the ignition key in the
“ON” position. (See “Service reminder indi-
cators and warning buzzers” in Section
1−5.)If you forcibly close the power sliding door
by hand when the ignition key is in the
“ON” position, the open power sliding door
warning light may stay on. In this case,
try opening and closing the power sliding
door again by hand slowly, or use one of
the “DOOR L”, “DOOR R” and “PWR
DOOR” switches inside the vehicle or
“POWER DOOR”, “D−PWR DOOR” and
“P−PWR DOOR” switches of the wireless
remote control transmitter.
If you shift out of “P” when the power
sliding door is opened or in the process
of closing with the power sliding door sys-
tem on, a buzzer will sound and the open
power sliding door warning light will flash.
This is a warning that the sliding door is
not completely closed.JAM PROTECTION FUNCTION
If anything with sufficient resistance ob-
structs the power sliding door while it is
closing or opening, the sliding door will
automatically reverse to the opposite di-
rection. However, if the power sliding door
is between the fully−closed and half−
opened positions while it is opening, the
door will stop at that position.
Before operating the power sliding door,
make sure there is nobody near the slid-
ing door. Make sure the sliding door stops
at the fully−opened position, and then al-
low the passengers to get on and off the
vehicle.

This indicator comes on when the igni-
tion key is turned to the “ACC” or
“ON” position. It goes off after about
6 seconds. This means the front seat
belt pretensioners are operating proper-
ly.
This warning light system monitors the
airbag sensor assembly, front airbag sen-
sors, side airbag sensors, front seat belt
pretensioner assemblies, inflators, warning
light, interconnecting wiring and power
sources. (For details, see “Service remain-
der indicators and warning buzzers” in
Section 1−5.)The front seat belt pretensioner system
mainly consists of the following compo-
nents and their locations are shown in the
illustration.
1. Front airbag sensors
2. SRS warning light
3. Front seat belt pretensioner assemblies
4. Airbag sensor assembly
The front seat belt pretensioners are con-
trolled by the airbag sensor assembly. The
airbag sensor assembly consists of a saf-
ing sensor and airbag sensor.When the front seat belt pretensioners are
activated, an operating noise may be
heard and a small amount of smoke−like
gas may be released. This gas is harm-
less and does not indicate that a fire is
occurring.
Once the front seat belt pretensioners
have been activated, the seat belt retrac-
tors remain locked.
CAUTION
Do not modify, remove, strike or open
the front seat belt pretensioner as-
semblies, airbag sensor or surround-
ing area or wiring. Doing any of
these may cause sudden operation of
the front seat belt pretensioners or
disable the system, which could re-
sult in death or serious personal inju-
ry.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or serious inju-
ries.

The SRS (Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem) front airbags are designed to pro-
vide further protection for the driver
and front passenger in addition to the
primary safety protection provided by
the seat belts.
In response to a severe frontal impact,
the SRS front airbags work together with
the seat belts to help reduce injury by
inflating. The SRS front airbags help to
reduce injuries mainly to the driver ’s or
front passenger ’s head or chest caused by
directly hitting the steering wheel or dash-
board. The front passenger airbag is acti-
vated even with no passenger in the front
seat.
Be sure to wear your seat belt properly.Your vehicle is equipped with a crash
sensing and diagnostic module, which will
record the use of the seat belt restraint
system by the driver and front passenger
when the SRS airbags are inflated.
CAUTION
A driver or front passenger too close
to the steering wheel or dashboard
during airbag deployment can be
killed or seriously injured. Toyota
strongly recommends that:
The driver sit as far back as pos-
sible from the steering wheel while
still maintaining control of the ve-
hicle.
The front passenger sit as far back
as possible from the dashboard.
All vehicle occupants be properly
restrained using the available seat
belts.
This indicator comes on when the igni-
tion key is turned to the “ACC” or
“ON” position. It goes off after about
6 seconds. This means the SRS front
airbags are operating properly.
This warning light system monitors the
airbag sensor assembly, front airbag sen-
sors, side airbag sensors, front seat belt
pretensioner assemblies, inflators, warning
light, interconnecting wiring and power
sources. (For details, see “Service remind-
er indicators and warning buzzers” in Sec-
tion 1−5.)
