When the ambient conditions are
dry, Launch Control permits opti-
mised acceleration on a road sur-
face that offers plenty of grip.
Use of Launch Control causes pre-
mature component wear, as the
function subjects the vehicle to very
high stresses and loads.
Do not use Launch Control when
running in, see page 266.
When starting with Launch Control,
do not turn the steering wheel.
Launch Control is available when
the engine is at operating tempera-
ture. The engine is at operating
temperature after an uninterrupted
journey of at least 10 km, approx. 6
miles.

In a side-on crash, the side airbag
supports the body from the side in
the chest, pelvic and head area.
The knee airbag supports the legs
in the event of a head-on collision.
The curtain shield airbag supports
the head in the event of a side-on
crash.
Airbags are not activated in every
collision, for example in minor acci-
dents and rear-end collisions.
Keep your distance from the
airbags.Always grip the steering wheel
on the steering wheel rim. Place
your hands in the 3 o'clock and 9
o'clock positions to minimise the
risk of injury to hands or arms
when the airbag deploys.
Make sure that the front-seat
passenger is sitting correctly, in
other words with feet or legs in
the footwell, not resting on the
dashboard.
Make sure that vehicle occu-
pants keep their head away from
the side airbag.
Do not position any other per-
sons, pets or objects between
the airbags and persons.
Keep the dashboard and wind-
screen in the area of the passen-
ger's side free, for example do
not attach adhesive foil or covers
and do not fit brackets for navi-
gation devices or mobile tele-
phones.
Do not attach anything to the
airbag covers with adhesive;
never cover them or modify them
in any way.
Do not use the front airbag cover
on the front passenger's side as
a tray.
Covers, seat covers, cushions or
other objects not specifically suit-
able for seats with integral side
airbags must not be fitted to the

General
Notes on achieving optimum
airbag effectiveness
WARNING
If the seat position is wrong or the
deployment area of the airbag is
restricted, the airbag system cannot
provide the intended protection or
may cause additional injuries when it
deploys. There is a danger of injury or
even death. Observe the following to
achieve optimum protective effect.

example coats or jackets over
the backrests.
Do not modify individual compo-
nents of the system or its wiring
in any way. This also applies to
the covers of the steering wheel,
the dashboard and seats.
Do not dismantle the airbag sys-
tem.
Even if all this information is
observed, depending on the cir-
cumstances in which an accident
occurs, certain injuries as a result
of contact with the airbag cannot be
entirely ruled out.
The noise caused by the deploy-
ment of an airbag may lead to tem-
porary hearing loss for vehicle
occupants sensitive to noise.
Have the system checked.
The airbags are not designed to be
used in place of the seat belts.
The SRS front airbags and SRS
knee airbags are designed to sup-
plement the seat belts, not be used
in place of them, to increase their Operational readiness of the
airbag system
Safety notes
WARNING
Individual components of the airbag
system may be hot after airbag
deployment. There is a danger of
injury. Do not touch individual compo-
nents.
WARNING
Work carried out incorrectly can lead
to a failure, a malfunction or acciden-
tal deployment of the airbag system. If
there is a malfunction, the airbag sys-
tem might not deploy as intended in
an accident, in spite of the accident
being of the appropriate severity.
There is a danger of injury or even
death. Have the airbag system tested,
repaired or removed and disposed of
by any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
Display in the instrument cluster
When drive-ready state is
switched on, the warning
lamp in the instrument cluster

ness of the entire airbag sys-
tem and the belt tensioners.

effectiveness as an occupant pro-
tection device.
SRS is an acronym for Supplemental
Restraint System
In the event of a collision, the seat
belts restrain the occupants in their
seats, but if the impact of the colli-
sion is especially severe, there is
danger of an occupant’s head and
chest contacting the steering
wheel, dashboard and windshield.
In this case, the SRS front airbags
and SRS knee airbags deploy
(inflate), instantly creating an air
cushion to help reduce the impact
on the occupants and restrain them
from contacting the steering wheel,
etc. with their head, chest and
knees.
The SRS front air bags and SRS
knee airbags deploy only when an
impact exceeding a certain thresh-
old is detected. In a collision, even
if the impact is severe enough to
cause the vehicle body to deform,
the SRS airbags may not deploy if
the impact of the collision is suffi-
ciently dispersed by the crash
structures of the vehicle body. If the
force of the collision does not cause
the airbags to deploy, the seatbelts
will protect the occupants.
When an airbag deploys, as it will
inflate nearly instantly, it may
impact an occupant and cause an
injury, or the loud noise emitted by
ignition or deployment may cause
temporary partial loss of hearing. Also, as an airbag and nearby parts
will be extremely hot after the
airbag deploys, touching them may
cause burns. For these reasons,
deployment of the airbags is not
entirely risk free. Therefore, in
order to reduce this risk, the
airbags are designed to only deploy
when additional reduction of the
impact applied to the occupants in
a collision is necessary.
WARNING
Wear the seatbelt correctly and sit
with the correct posture.
If you sit with your head too close to
the steering wheel, when the SRS
front airbag deploys, it may apply a
very large impact to your body. Sit in
the driver’s seat with the correct pos-
ture and keep an appropriate distance
away from the steering wheel.

Supra Owner's Manual3-1. CONTROLS
CONTROLSWhen the vehicle is involved in a
frontal collision which exceeds a
threshold equivalent to colliding
with a concrete wall which does not
move or deform
When an impact which exceeds a
threshold is applied to the vehicle at
an angle of 30 degrees or less of
the front left or right corner of the
vehicle (A)
WARNING
Do not position the passenger’s seat
too close to the dashboard or rest
your feet on the dashboard, as doing
so may lead to a serious injury if the
SRS airbags deploy. Sit in the pas-
senger’s seat with the correct posture
and keep an appropriate distance
away from the dashboard.
WARNING
Do not attach anything to or lean any-
thing against areas near the SRS
airbags.
Do not install or attach anything, such
as a sticker to areas such as the
steering wheel pad and near the SRS
knee airbags. Also, do not attach any
accessories, such as an air freshener,
to the passenger’s side instrument
panel or place anything on the floor in
front of the seat. If anything is
attached to or left in these areas, they
may prevent an airbag from deploying
or become a projectile when the
airbags deploy.
The SRS front airbags and SRS
knee airbags will deploy when
