Essential Safety Equipment
Seat Belt Pretensioner and Load Limiting 
Systems
◆Pretensioners
When  a  collision  is  detected,  the  pretensioners  deploy  simultan e-
ously with the air bags.
The pretensioners  deploy simult aneously  with  the  air  bags  when  a
roll-over is also detected.
For deployment details, refer to  the SRS Air Bag Deployment Cri te-
ria ( P. 78).
The  front  seat  belt  retractors  remove  slack  quickly  as  the  air  bags
are  expanding. Any  time  the  air  bags  and  seat  belt  pretensioners
have fired they must be replaced.
A  system  malfunction   or  operation  conditions  are  indicated  by  a
warning.
Refer to Warning/Indi cator Lights on P. 173.
Refer  to  Air  Bag/Front  Seat  Belt  Pretensioner  System  Warning
Beep on P. 503.
In addition, the pretensioner system for the front passenger, l ike the
front  and  side  passenger  air  bag,  is  designed  to  only  deploy  wh en
the  front  passenger  occupant  class ification  sensor  detects  a  pas-
senger sitting on the  front passenger’s seat.
For details, refer to the front passenger occupant classificati on sen-
sor ( P.   8 2 ) .
For  optimum  protection,  the  d river  and  front  passenger  seat
belts are equipped with pretensi oner and load limiting systems.
For both these systems to work properly you must wear the seat
belt properly.

1-3. Child Restraint
Child-Restraint Precautions
Whatever  child-restraint  system  you  consider,  please  pick  the  appro-
priate  one  for  the  age  and  size  of  the  child,  obey  the  law  and  follow
the instructions that come wit h the individual child-restraint  system.
A child who has outgrown child-re straint systems should sit in the rear
and use seat belts, both lap and shoulder. If the shoulder belt  crosses
the neck or face, move the child closer to the center of the ve hicle in
the outboard seats, and towards the buckle on the right if the  child is
seated on the  center seat.
Statistics confirm that the rear  seat is the best place for all children up
to 12 years of age, and more so w ith a supplemental restraint system
(air bags).
A  rear-facing  child-restraint  system  should  NEVER  be  used  on  th e
front  seat  with  the  air  bag  syst em  activated.  The  front  passeng er’s
seat is also the leas t preferred seat for other child-restraint  systems.
To  reduce  the  chance  of  injuries  caused  by  deployment  of  the  front
passenger air bag, the front passenger occupant classification  sensor
works  as  a  part  of  the  supplemen tal  restraint  system.  This  system
deactivates  the  front  passenger  front  and  side  air  bags  and  als o  the
front passenger seat belt pretens ioner system when the front passen-
ger air bag deactivation ind icator light illuminates.
When an infant or small child sits on the front passenger seat,  the sys-
tem shuts off the front passeng er front and side air bags and seat belt
pretensioner system, so make sur e the front passenger air bag deac-
tivation indicator light illuminates.
Toyota strongly urges  the use of child-restraint systems for chil-
dren small enough to use them.
You  are  required  by  law  to  use  a  child-restraint  system  for  chil-
dren in the U. S. and Canada. 
Check  your  local  and  state  or  provincial  laws  for  specific
requirements  regarding  the  safety  of  children  riding  in  your
vehicle.

Essential Safety Equipment
Even if the front passenger air bag is shut off, Toyota strongly recom-
mends that children be properly restrained and child-restraint systems
of all kinds are properly secured on the rear seats which are t he best
place for children.
For  more  details,  refer  to  “Fron t  passenger  occupant  classification
sensor” ( P. 82).
Your  Toyota  is  equipped  with  LATCH  lower  anchors  for  attachment  of  spe-
cially designed LATCH child-restraint systems on the rear seats. When using
these  anchors  to  secure  a  child-restraint  system,  refer  to  “Usi ng  LATCH
Lower Anchor” ( P. 61).
WARNING
■Use the correct size child-restraint system
For effective protection in vehicle accidents and sudden stops, a child must
be properly restrained using a seat belt or child-restraint sys tem depending
on age and size. If not, the child could be seriously injured o r even killed in
an accident.
■ Follow  the  manufacturer’s  instructions  and  always  keep  the  chil d-
restraint system buckled down
An  unsecured  child-restraint  system  is  dangerous.  In  a  sudden  s top  or  a
collision  it  could  move  causing  serious  injury  or  death  to  the  child  or  other
occupants.  Make  sure  any  child-restraint  system  is  properly  sec ured  in
place  according  to  the  child-restraint  system  manufacturer’s  in structions.
When not in use, remove it  from  the vehicle  or  fasten it  with  a seat belt,  or
attach  it  to  BOTH  LATCH  lower  anchors  for  LATCH  child-restraint   systems
and the corresponding tether anchor.
■ Always secure a child in a proper child-restraint system
Holding  a  child  in  your  arms  while  the  vehicle  is  moving  is  ext remely  dan-
gerous.  No  matter  how  strong  the  person  may  be,  he  or  she  canno t  hold
onto a child in a sudden stop or collision and it could result  in serious injury
or  death  to  the  child  or  other  occupants.  Even  in  a  moderate  accident,  the
child may be exposed to air bag forces that could result in ser ious injury or
death to the child, or the child may be slammed into an adult,  causing injury
to both child and adult.

WARNING
■Seating a child  in  a child-restraint system on the front passen ger seat
is dangerous under certain conditions
Your  vehicle  is  equipped  with  front  passenger  occupant  classifi cation  sen-
sor.  Even  with  the  front  passenger  occupant  classification  sensor,  if  you
must  use  the  front  passenger  seat  to  seat  a  child,  using  a  chil d-restraint
system  on  the  front  passenger  seat  under  the  following  conditio ns
increases  the  danger  of  the  front  passenger  air  bag  deploying  a nd  could
result in serious injury or death to the child.
● The front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light does not illuminate
when seating a child in the child-restraint system.
● Luggage  or  other  items  are  placed  on  the  seat  with  the  child  in   the  child-
restraint system.
● A rear passenger or luggage pushing or pulling down on the front passen-
ger seatback.
● Luggage  or  other  items  are  placed  on  the  seatback  or  hung  on  the  head
restraint.
● The seat is washed.
● Liquids are spilled on the seat.
● The  front  passenger  seat  is  moved  backward,  pushing  into  luggag e  or
other items placed behind it.
● The front passenger seatback contacts the rear seat.
● Luggage or other items are placed between the front passenger s eat and
driver seat.
● An electric device is put on the front passenger’s seat.
● An  additional  electrical  device,  such  as  a  seat  warmer  is  installed  to  the
surface of the front passenger seat.
The  designated  positions  with  seat  belts  on  the  rear  seats  are  the  safest
places for children. Always use seat belts and child restraints .

Essential Safety Equipment
Installing Child-Restraint Systems
Some  child-restraint  systems  now  come  with  tethers  and  therefore
must be installed on the seats that take tethers to be effectiv e. In your
Toyota, tethered child-restraint  systems can only be accommodat ed in
the three positions  on the rear seat.
Some  child-restraint  systems  also   employ  specially  designed  LATCH
attachments; refer to “Usin g LATCH Lower Anchor” (P.   6 1 ) .
Even if your vehicle is equipped with front passenger occupant  classification
sensor ( P. 82), which automatically deactivates the front passenger air  bag,
a rear seat is the safest place for a child of any age or size.
Accident  statistics  reveal  that  a  child  is  safer  in  the  rear  se at.
The  front  passenger’s  seat  is  clearly  the  worst  choice  for  any
child  under  12,  and  with  rear-f acing  child-restraint  systems  it  is
clearly unsafe due to air bags.
WARNING
■ Tethered Child-Restraint Systems  Work Only on Tether-Equipped Rear
Seats
Installation  of  a  tether  equipped  child-restraint  system  in  the   front  passen-
ger’s  seat  defeats  the  safety  design  of  the  system  and  will  res ult  in  an
increased chance of serious injury if the child-restraint syste m goes forward
without benefit of being tethered. 
Place  tether  equipped  child-restraint  systems  where  there  are  tether
anchors.

Essential Safety Equipment
If you cannot put all children in the rear seat, at least put the smallest
children in the rear and be sure the largest child up front use s a front-
facing child-restraint system.
NEVER put a rear-facing child-restraint system on the front pas senger
seat  whether  your  vehicle  is  equ ipped  with  a  occupant  classification
sensor or not. 
This  seat  is  also  not  set  up  for  tethered  child-restraint  syste ms,  put
them in one of the rear seat posit ions set up with tether anchors.
Likewise  the  LATCH  child-restraint  system  cannot  be  secured  in  the
front passenger’s se at and should be used  in the rear seat.
Do  not  allow  anyone  to  lean  over  or  against  the  side  window  sin ce
your vehicle has side and curt ain air bags, it could cause serious inju-
ries  to  an  out  of  position  occup ant.  As  children  more  often  sleep  in
cars, it is better to pu t them in the rear seat.
If installing the child-restraint  system on the front seat is u navoidable,
follow these instructions when  using a front-facing child-restraint sys-
tem in the front  passenger’s seat.
●To check if your front seats have side air bags:
The vehicle equipped with side air bag will have a “SRS AIRBAG”  tag on the
outboard shoulder of the front seats.
● To check if your vehicle has curtain air bags:
The vehicle equipped with curtain air bag will have an “SRS AIR BAG” mark-
ing on the window pillars along the roof edge.
WARNING
■ Always attach the tether strap to the correct tether anchor pos ition
Attaching  the  tether  strap  to  the  incorrect  tether  anchor  position  is  danger-
ous.  In  a  collision,  the  tether  strap  could  come  off  and  loosen  the  child-
restraint  system. If  the  child-restraint  system moves  it  could  result  in  death
or injury to the child.
■ Always  install  the  head  restraint  and  adjust  it  to  the  appropriate  posi-
tion after removing the child-restraint system
Driving with the head restraint removed is dangerous as impact to the occu-
pant’s head cannot be prevented during emergency braking or in  a collision,
which could result in a serious accident, injury or death. 
Refer to Head Restraints on P. 30.

1-4. SRS Air Bags
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Pre-
cautions
The  front  and  side  supplemental  r estraint  systems  (SRS)  include dif-
ferent  types  of  air  bags.  Please  verify  the  different  types  of  air  bags
which  are  equipped  on  your  vehicl e  by  locating  the  “SRS  AIRBAG”
location indicators. These indicators are visible in the area w here the
air bags are installed.
The air bags are installed  in the following locations:
• The steering wheel  hub (driver air bag)
• The front passenger dashboard  (front passenger air bag)
• The outboard sides of the fron t seatbacks (side air bags)
• The  front  and  rear  window  pilla rs,  and  the  roof  edge  along  both
sides (curtain air bags)
Vehicles  with  the  Front  Passenger  Occupant  Classification  System
have a sensor which  detects an impending roll-over accident.
The  air  bag  supplemental  restraint   systems  are  designed  to  provide
supplemental protection in certa in situations so seat belts are always
important in the following ways:
Without seat belt usage, the ai r bags cannot provide adequate p rotec-
tion during an accident. Seat belt usag e is necessary to:
• Keep the occupant from being thr own into an inflating air bag.
• Reduce  the  possibility  of  injur ies  during  an  accident  that  is not
designed for air bag inflati on, such as rear impact.
• Reduce the possibility of injuries in frontal, near frontal or  side colli-
sions  or  roll-over  accidents  that  are  not  severe  enough  to  acti vate
the air bags.
• Reduce the possibility of being thrown from your vehicle.
• Reduce  the  possibility  of  injurie s  to  lower  body  and  legs  duri ng  an
accident because the ai r  bags  provide no  protection  to  these  pa rts
of the body.
• Hold the driver in a position wh ich allows better control of the vehi-
cle.

1-4. SRS Air Bags
WARNING
■Do  not  touch  the  components  of  t he  supplemental  restraint  system
after the air bags have inflated
Touching the components of the supplemental restraint system after the air
bags  have  inflated  is  dangerous.  Immediately  after  inflation,  t hey  are  very
hot. You could get burned.
■ Never install any front-end  equipment to your vehicle
Installation of front-end equipment, such as frontal protection  bar (kangaroo
bar,  bull  bar,  push  bar,  or  other  similar  devices),  snowplow,  o r  winches,  is
dangerous. The  air  bag  crash  sensor  system  could  be  affected. T his  could
cause air bags to inflate unexpectedly, or it could prevent the  air bags from
inflating during an accident. Front occupants could be seriously injured.
■ Do not modify the suspension
Modifying the vehicle suspension is dangerous. If the vehicle’s  height or the
suspension is modified, the vehicle will be unable to accurately detect a col-
lision  or  roll-over  accident  resulting  in  incorrect  or  unexpect ed  air  bag
deployment and the possibility of serious injuries.
■ To  prevent  false  detection  by  t he  air  bag  sensor  system,  heed  t he  fol-
lowing
● Do not use tires or wheels other than those specified for your  To y o t a :
Use of any tire or wheel other than those specified for your To yota (P. 553)
is dangerous. Use of such wheels will prevent the vehicle’s acc ident detec-
tions system from accurately detecting a collision or roll-over  accident result-
ing  in  incorrect  or  unexpected  air  bag  deployment  and  the  possi bility  of
serious injuries.
● Do not overload your vehicle:
Overloading  your  vehicle  is  dangerous  as  it  could  prevent  the  a ir  bag
crash sensor system from accurately detecting a collision or roll-over acci-
dent resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag deployment an d the pos-
sibility  of  serious  injuries.  The  gross  axle  weight  rating  (GAW R)  and  the
gross  vehicle  weight  rating  (GVWR)  for  your  vehicle  are  on  the  Motor
Vehicle  Safety  Standard  Label  on  the  driver’s  door  frame.  Do  not  exceed
these ratings.
● Do not drive the vehicle off-road:
Driving  your  Toyota  off-road  is  dangerous  because  the  vehicle  h as  not
been designed  to do so. Driving  the  vehicle  off-road could  prevent  the air
bag crash sensor system from accurately detecting a collision o r roll-over
accident  resulting  in  incorrect  or  unexpected  air  bag  deploymen t  and  the
possibility of serious injuries.

Essential Safety Equipment
WARNING
■Do  not  modify  a  front  door  or  l eave  any  damage  unrepaired.  Always
have your Toyota dealer ins pect a damaged front door
Modifying  a  front  door  or  leaving  any  damage  unrepaired  is  dang erous.
Each front door has a side crash sensor as a component of the supplemen-
tal restraint system. If holes are drilled in a front door, a door speaker is left
removed,  or  a  damaged  door  is  left  unrepaired,  the  sensor  could  be
adversely  affected  causing  it  to  not  detect  the  pressure  of  an  impact  cor-
rectly during a side collision. If a sensor does not detect a s ide impact cor-
rectly, the side and curtain air bags and the front seat belt pretensioner may
not operate normally which could result in serious injury to oc cupants.
■ Do not modify the supplemental restraint system
Modifying the components or wiring of the supplemental restrain t system is
dangerous. You  could  accidentally  activate  it  or  make  it  inoper able.  Do  not
make any modifications to the supplemental restraint system. Th is includes
installing  trim,  badges,  or  anything  else  over  the  air  bag  modu les.  It  also
includes installing extra electrical equipment on or near syste m components
or  wiring.  Your  Toyota  dealer  can  provide  the  special  care  need ed  in  the
removal  and  installation  of  front  seats.  It  is  important  to  protect  the  air  bag
wiring  and  connections  to  assure  that  the  bags  do  not  accidenta lly  deploy,
and  that  the  front  passenger  occupant  classification  system  and   the  seats
retain an undamaged air bag connection.
■ Do not place luggage or other  objects under the front seats
Placing  luggage  or  other  objects  under  the  front  seats  is  dange rous.  The
components  essential  to  the  supplemental  restraint  system  could  be  dam-
aged, and in the event of a side collision, the appropriate air bags may not
deploy,  which  could  result  in  death  or  serious  injury. To  preve nt  damage  to
the  components  essential  to  the  supplemental  restraint  system,  do  not
place luggage or other objects under the front seats.
■ Do  not  operate  a  vehicle  with  damaged  air  bag/seat  belt  pretens ioner
system components
Expended  or  damaged  air  bag/seat  belt  pretensioner  system  components
must  be  replaced  after  any  collision  which  caused  them  to  deplo y  or  dam-
age them. Only a trained Authorized Toyota Dealer can fully eva luate these
systems to see that they will work in any subsequent accident.  Driving with
an expended or damaged air bag or pretensioner unit will not afford you the
necessary  protection  in  the  event  of  any  subsequent  accident  wh ich  could
result in serious injury or death.
