■Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also lock if you lean forward too quickly.
When the seat belt locks, pull the belt strongly and then release the belt, then a slow and easy pulling will allow the
belt to extend.
■After using the rear center seat belt
Stow seat belt buckle in the pocket.
The pretensioners help the seat
belts to quickly restrain the occu-
pants by retracting the seat belts
when the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal or
side collision.
The pretensioners do not activate in the
event of a minor frontal impact, a minor
side impact, a rear impact or a vehicle
rollover.
■Replacing the belt after the pretensioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple colli-
sions, the pretensioner will activate for the first collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent collisions.
■PCS-linked seat belt pretensioner
control (vehicles with Toyota Safety Sense)
If the PCS (Pre-Collision System) deter-
mines that the possibility of a collision with a vehicle is high, the seat belt pretensioners will be prepared to oper-
ate.
Seat belt pretensioners
(front and outboard rear
seats)
WARNING
■Seat belt pretensioners
If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS warning light will come on. In that case, the seat belt cannot be
used again and must be replaced at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
Driving
WARNING
■The ABS does not operate effec- tively when
●The limits of tire gripping perfor-mance have been exceeded (such as excessively worn tires on a snow
covered road).
●The vehicle hydroplanes while driv-
ing at high speed on wet or slick roads.
■Stopping distance when the ABS is operating may exceed that of normal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten the vehicle’s stopping distance. Always maintain a safe distance from
the vehicle in front of you, especially in the following situations:
●When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the
road
●When driving over roads with pot-
holes or uneven surfaces
■TRC/VSC may not operate effec-
tively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-
pery road surfaces, even if the TRC/VSC system is operating. Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions
where stability and power may be lost.
■Active Cornering Assist does not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on Active Corner-
ing Assist. Active Cornering Assist may not operate effectively when accelerating down slopes or driving
on slippery road surfaces.
●When Active Cornering Assist fre- quently operates, Active Cornering Assist may temporarily stop operat-
ing to ensure proper operation of the brakes, TRC and VSC.
■Hill-start assist control does not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on hill-start assist
control. Hill-start assist control may not operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered with ice.
●Unlike the parking brake, hill-start assist control is not intended to hold
the vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to use hill-start assist con-
trol to hold the vehicle on an incline, as doing so may lead to an acci-dent.
■When the TRC/ABS/VSC is acti-vated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may cause an accident. Exercise particular
care when the indicator light flashes.
■When the TRC/VSC systems are
turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road condi-
tions. As these are the systems to help ensure vehicle stability and driv-ing force, do not turn the TRC/VSC
systems off unless necessary.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size, brand, tread pattern and total load capacity. In addition,
make sure that the tires are inflated to the recommended tire inflation pres-sure level.
The ABS, TRC and VSC systems will not function correctly if different tires are installed on the vehicle.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for further information
when replacing tires or wheels.
