WARNING
●Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side
airbags and SRS front seat center airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the SRS airbags.
Such accessories may prevent the SRS side airbags and SRS front seat center airbags from activating
correctly, disable the system or cause the SRS side airbags and SRS front seat center airbags to
inflate accidentally, resulting in death or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS airbag components or the
front doors. Doing so can cause the SRS air-bags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS air-
bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.
●If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbags have deployed, open a door or window to allow
fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do so. Wash off any resi-due as soon as possible to prevent
skin irritation.
●If the areas where the SRS airbags
are stored, such as the steering wheel pad and front and rear pillar garnishes, are damaged or
cracked, have them replaced by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
■Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per-
