Essential Safety Equipment
◆Load limiter
The load limiting system releases belt webbing in a controlled man-
ner to reduce belt force on the occupant’s chest. While the most
severe load on a seat belt occurs in frontal collisions, the load lim-
iter has an automatic mechanical function and can activate in any
accident mode with sufficient occupant movement.
Even if the pretensioners have not fired, the load limiting function
must be checked by your Toyota dealer.
●The pretensioner system may not operate depending on the type of the col-
lision. For details, refer to the SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria ( →P. 74)
● Some smoke (non-toxic gas) will be released when the air bags and preten-
sioners deploy. This does not indicate a fire. This gas normally has no effect
on occupants, however, those with sensitive skin may experience light skin
irritation. If residue from the deployment of the air bags or the front preten-
sioner system gets on the skin or in the eyes, wash it off as soon as possi-
ble.

Maintenance and Care
●When cleaning the plastic lenses of the lights, do not use gasoline,
kerosene, rectified spirit, paint, thinner, highly acidic detergents, or
strongly alkaline detergents. Otherwise, these chemical agents can
discolor or damage the surfaces resulting in a significant loss in
functionality. If plastic parts become inadvertently exposed to any of
these chemical agents, flush with water immediately.
● If plastic parts such as the bumpers become inadvertently exposed
to chemical agents or fluids such as gasoline, oil, engine coolant, or
battery fluid, it could cause discoloration, staining, or paint peeling.
Wipe off any such chemical agents or fluids using a soft cloth imme-
diately.
● High water temperature and high water pressure car washers are
available depending on the type of high pressure car washer
device. If the car washer nozzle is put too close to the vehicle or
aimed at one area for an extended period of time, it could deform
plastic parts or damage the paint.
● Do not use wax containing compounds (polish). Otherwise, it could
result in paint damage.
● In addition, do not use an electrical or air tool to apply wax. Other-
wise, the frictional heat generated could result in deformation of
plastic parts or paint damage.
NOTICE
Do not use any detergent other than mild detergent. Before using any deter-
gent, verify the ingredients.
Otherwise, the product could discolor or stain the aluminum wheels.
