When it is unavoidable to install the
forwardfacing child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger seat,
install the child restraint system on
the front passenger seat in the
proper order. (As for the installation
order, see “—Installation with seat
belt” in this Section.)
Do not modify or remove the front
seats.
Do not kick the front passenger
seat or subject it to severe impact.
Otherwise, the SRS warning light
may come on to indicate a malfunc-
tion of the detection system. In this
case, contact your Toyota dealer im-
mediately.
The front passenger occupant classifica-
tion indicator light may indicate “ON” (the
front passenger airbag and side airbag on
the front passenger seat may deploy)
even if observing the above cautions,
when a child sits in, or a forward −facing
child restraint system is installed on the
front passenger seat. Refer to all the cau-
tions in “SRS driver airbag and front pas-
senger airbag”, “SRS side airbags and
curtain shield airbags” and “Child restraint”
in this Section. Your vehicle is equipped with a front
passenger occupant classification sys-
tem. The system detects conditions
1—4 (shown in the following table.).
Based on these conditions, the systems
below are activated or deactivated:
Front passenger airbag
Side airbag on the front passenger
seat
Front passenger ’s seat belt pretension-
er
The system monitors the weight and
load on the front passenger seat, and
the seat belt buckle switch to determine
conditions 1—4.
In order to ensure the system detects
the conditions correctly:
Do not place a heavy load on the front
passenger seat or its armrest, etc.
Do not attach a commercial seatback
table or other heavy item to the back
of the front passenger seat.
Do not apply pressure to the front pas-
senger seat by resting hands or legs
on the seatback.

When it is unavoidable to install the
forwardfacing child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger seat,
install the child restraint system on
the front passenger seat in the
proper order. (As for the installation
order, see “—Installation with seat
belt” in this Section.)
Do not modify or remove the front
seats.
Do not kick the front passenger
seat or subject it to severe impact.
Otherwise, the SRS warning light
may come on to indicate a malfunc-
tion of the detection system. In this
case, contact your Toyota dealer im-
mediately.
The front passenger occupant classifica-
tion indicator light may indicate “ON” (the
front passenger airbag and side airbag on
the front passenger seat may deploy)
even if observing the above cautions,
when a child sits in, or a forward −facing
child restraint system is installed on the
front passenger seat. Refer to all the cau-
tions in “SRS driver airbag and front pas-
senger airbag”, “SRS side airbags and
curtain shield airbags” and “Child restraint”
in this Section.
The roll sensing of curtain shield air-
bags off switch (“RSCA OFF” switch)
can turn off the curtain shield airbags
and seat belt pretensioners in a vehicle
rollover. This switch should only be
used if inflation is not desired (such as
extreme offroad driving).
When you push the “RSCA OFF” switch
for a few seconds with the ignition switch
on, the “RSCA OFF” indicator light comes
on and the roll sensing function is turned
off. When you push the switch again, the
indicator light goes off and the roll sens-
ing function is turned on. (For details
about the roll sensing function, see “SRS
side airbags and curtain shield airbags” in
this Section.)

Without tachometer
With tachometer
The gauge indicates the approximate
quantity of fuel remaining in the tank
when the ignition switch is on.
Nearly full—Needle at “F”
Nearly empty—Needle at “E”
It is a good idea to keep the tank over
1/4 full.
The needle moves when braking, acceler-
ating or making turns. This is caused by
the movement of the fuel in the tank.
If the fuel level approaches “E” or the low
fuel level warning light comes on, fill the
fuel tank as soon as possible.
On inclines or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the tank, the fuel gauge
needle may fluctuate or the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than
usual.
If the fuel tank is completely empty, the
malfunction indicator lamp comes on. Fill
the fuel tank immediately.
The indicator lamp goes off after driving
several times. If the indicator lamp does
not go off, contact your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible.
