Installation of an RF-transmitter system
As the installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect
electronic systems such as the multi-port fuel injection system/sequential
multi-port fuel injection system, anti-lock brake system, SRS airbag system
and seat belt pretensioner system, be sure to check with any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional for precautionary measures or special instructions regarding installa-
tion.
Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, antenna posi-
tions and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is
available on request at any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
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 seat belt
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 a qualified service shop or by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional, before you scrap your vehicle.
Your vehicle contains batteries and/or accumulators. Do not discard them into
the environment but cooperate with separate collection (Directive 2006/66/
EC).

CAUTION
When folding the rear seatbacks down
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
Do not fold the rear seatback when rear passengers sit on the rear seats
or luggage is placed on the seat. Make sure that no passengers or lug-
gage are on the rear seat. Be especially careful when operating the rear
seat from the luggage compartment.
Do not fold the seatbacks down while driving.
Stop the vehicle on level ground, set the parking brake and shift the shift
lever to P (vehicles with a Multidrive), E, M or R (vehicles with a multi-
mode manual transmission) or N (vehicles with a manual transmission).
Do not allow anyone to sit on a folded seatback or in the luggage compart-
ment while driving.
Do not allow children to enter the luggage compartment.
Do not allow anyone sit on the rear center seat if the rear right seat is
folded down, as the seat belt buckle for the rear center seat belt is then
concealed under the folded seat and cannot be used.
Be careful not to catch your hand when folding the rear seatbacks.
Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Be careful not to catch your hand when adjusting the rear seats.
