Keys
Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds of keys.
1. Master keyThis key works in every lock.
2. Sub keyThis key will not work in the trunk.
To protect things locked in the trunk when you have your vehicle parked, leave the sub key with the attendant.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be locked without a key, you should always carry a spare master key in case you accidentally lock your keys inside the ve­hicle.
KEY NUMBER PLATE
Your key number is shown on the plate. Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you need additional keys, duplicates can be made by a Toyota dealer using the key number.
We recommend you to write down the key number and keep it in safe place.

CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the following.
D Always make sure the head, hands
and other parts of the body of all occupants are kept completely in­side the vehicle before you close the power windows. If someone’s neck, head or hands gets caught in a closing window, it could result in a serious injury. When anyone closes the power windows, be sure that they operate the windows safe­ly.
D When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power window switches without supervi­sion. Use the window lock switch to prevent them from making unex­pected use of the switches.
D Never leave small children alone in
the vehicle, especially with the igni­tion key still inserted. They could use the power window switches and get trapped in a window. Unat­tended children can become in­volved in serious accidents.
To open the trunk lid from the outside, insert the master key and turn it clock­wise.
See Luggage stowage precautions" in Section 2 for precautions in loading lug­gage.
To close the trunk lid, lower it and press down on it. After closing the trunk lid, try pulling it up to make sure it is securely closed.
CAUTION
D Keep the trunk lid closed while
driving. This not only keeps the luggage from being thrown out but also prevents exhaust gases from entering the vehicle.
D Always lock the trunk lid and all
doors, and keep away the vehicle keys out of children’s reaches.
D Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Unsupervised children may lock themselves in the vehicle or trunk and suffer serious injuries or death.

Seats
While the vehicle is being driven, all ve­hicle occupants should have the seatback upright, sit well back in the seat and prop­erly wear the seat belts provided.
CAUTION
D Do not drive the vehicle unless the
occupants are properly seated. Do not allow sitting on top of a folded−down seatback, or in the luggage compartment. Persons not properly seated and/or properly re­strained by seat belts can be se­verely injured in the event of emer­gency braking or a collision.
D During driving, do not allow pas-
sengers to stand up or move around between seats. Severe inju­ries can occur in the event of emer­gency braking or a collision.
’01 Corolla U (L/O 0005)
Front seats Front seat precautions (with SRS side airbags)
CAUTION
The SRS side airbags are installed in the driver and front passenger seats. Observe the following precautions.
D Do not lean against the front door
when the vehicle is in use. The side airbag inflates with considerable speed and force; you may be killed or seriously injured.
D Do not modify or replace the seats
or surface of the front seats with the side airbags. Such changes may disable the system or cause the side airbags to inflate, resulting in death or serious injury. Consult your Toyota dealer.
D Do not use accessories for the
seats which cover the parts where the side airbags should inflate. Such accessories may prevent the side airbags from activating correct­ly, causing death or serious injury.
Seat adjustment precautions
Adjust the driver’s seat so that the foot pedals, steering wheel and instrument panel controls are within easy reach of the driver.
CAUTION
D Adjustments should not be made
while the vehicle is moving, as the seat may unexpectedly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
D When adjusting the seat, be careful
not to hit the seat against a pas­senger or luggage.
D After adjusting the seat position,
try sliding it forward and backward to make sure it is locked in posi­tion.
D After adjusting the seatback, exert
body pressure to make sure it is locked in position.
D Do not put objects under the seats.
The objects may interfere with the seat−lock mechanism or unexpect­edly push up the seat position ad­justing lever; the seat may suddenly move, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
22
2001MY_COROLLA_U (OM12720U)
D While adjusting the seat, do not put
your hands under the seat or near the moving parts. You may catch and injure your hands or fingers.
’01 Corolla U (L/O 0005)
Adjusting front seats
1. SEAT POSITION ADJUSTING LEVER
Pull the lever up. Then slide the seat to the desired position with slight body pressure and release the lever.
2. SEATBACK ANGLE ADJUSTING LEVER
Lean forward and pull the lever up. Then lean back to the desired angle and release the lever.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, avoid reclining the seatback any more than needed. The seat belts provide maxi­mum protection in a frontal or rear collision when the driver and the pas­senger are sitting up straight and well back in the seats. If you are reclined, the lap belt may slide past your hips and apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen. Therefore, in the event of a frontal collision, the risk of personal injury may increase with increasing recline of the seat­back.
2001MY_COROLLA_U (OM12720U)
23
Fold−down rear seat
(A) FOLDING DOWN REAR SEAT
1. To unlock the seatback, pull the le­ver in the trunk.
’01 Corolla U (L/O 0005)
2. Fold down the seatback.
Each seatback may be folded separately. On vehicles with built−in child restraint system, only the left seatback can be folded down.
This will enlarge the trunk as far as the seatbacks. See Luggage stowage precau­tions" in Section 2 for precautions in load­ing luggage.
CAUTION
When returning the seatback to the upright position:
D Make sure the seat belts are not
twisted or caught in the seatback and are arranged in the proper position and are ready to use.
D Make sure the seatback is securely
locked by pushing forward and rear­ward on the top of the seatback. Failure to do so will prevent seat belt from operating properly.
24
NOTICE
Make sure the luggage loaded in the enlarged trunk will not damage the webbing of the rear center seat belt when the left seatback is folded down.
2001MY_COROLLA_U (OM12720U)
’01 Corolla U (L/O 0005)
CAUTION
Disconnect the rear center seat belt only under the above mentioned cir­cumstances; do not disconnect it in other circumstances.
(B) PREVENTING DAMAGE TO REAR
CENTER SEAT BELT WEBBING
When folding down the left seatback, if the luggage loaded in the enlarged trunk will damage the webbing of the rear center seat belt, disconnect the rear center seat belt to prevent damage.
Insert the key into the hole (light gray) on the buckle to release tab 1 (light gray), and allow the belt to retract.
2001MY_COROLLA_U (OM12720U)
(C) BEFORE RETURNING REAR SEAT
Make sure the shoulder belt pass through the guide when returning the seatback up.
25
Before returning the seatback to the upright position, make sure to correctly connect the center seat belt for ready use.
Insert tab 1 (light gray) into the buckle with light gray buckle−release button.
You will hear a click when the tab locks into the buckle.
’01 Corolla U (L/O 0005)
CAUTION
D Be careful not to mix up the proper
match of tab and buckle. Do not insert tab 1 (light gray) into other buckle than the one with light gray buckle release button. (See Seat belts" in this section for proper matching of the buckles and tabs.)
D After inserting the tab, make sure
the tab and buckle are locked.
D Do not insert coins, clips, etc. in
the buckle as this may prevent you from properly latching the tab and buckle.
D Make sure the belt is not twisted or
caught in the seatback and that it is arranged in the proper position for ready use.
