For your information

Main Owner’s Manual

Please note that this manual covers all models and all equipment, including
options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for equipment not
installed on your vehicle.

All specifications provided in this manual are current at the time of printing.
However

, because of the Toyot

a policy of continual product improvement, we

reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.
Depending on specifications, the vehicle shown in the illustrations may differ

from your vehicle in terms of equipment.

Noise from under vehicle after turning off the engine

Approximately five hours after the engine is turned off, you may hear sound
coming from under the vehicle for several minutes. This is the sound of a fuel
evaporation leakage check and it does not indicate a malfunction.

Accessories, spare parts and modification of your Toyota

A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Toyota
vehicles are currently available on the market. You should know that these
parts are not covered by Toyota warranty and that Toyota is not responsible
for their performance, repair, or replacement, or for any damage they may
cause to, or adverse effect they may have on, your Toyota vehicle.

This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Toyota products.
Modification with non-genuine T

oyota product

s may affect performance,
safety or durability, and may even violate governmental regulations. In
addition, damage or performance problems resulting from the modification
may not be covered under warranty.

19

Installation of a mobile two-way radio system

As the installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle may
affect electronic systems such as the multi-port fuel injection system/sequen­tial multi-port fuel injection system, cruise control system, anti-lock brake
system, SRS ai

rbag system or seat belt pretensioner system, be sure to

check with your T

oyota dealer for precautionary measures or special instruc-

tions regarding installation.

Scrapping of your Toyota

The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Toyota
dealer before you scrap your vehicle.

Perchlorate Material

Special h andling may apply, See www.dtsc .ca.gov/haza rdouswaste/perchlorate.
Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate. These compo-

nents may include airbag, seat belt pretensioners, and wireless remote con­trol batteries.

20

CAUTION

■ General precautions while driving

Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ­ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi­cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and
reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in
death or serious injury.

Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other
drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.

Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that dis­tracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,
your occupants or others.

■ General precaution regarding children’s safety

Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to
have or use the key.

Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with
the windows, the moon roof, or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat
build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to
children.

CAUTION

■ Seat adjustment

Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injuries.

● The seat belts provide maximum protection in a frontal or rear collision

when the driver and the front 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 or your neck may contact the shoulder belt.

● Be careful not to get your hands or feet pinched in the seat.

● Do not adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving as the seat may unex-

pectedly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

● Be careful that the seat does not hit a passenger or luggage.

● Do not put objects under the seats.

Otherwise, the objects may interfere with the seat-lock mechanism or
unexpectedly push up the seat position adjustment lever and the seat may
suddenly move, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

● Avoid reclining the seatback any more than needed.

● Adjust both seat cushions to the same positi on and align all seatbacks at

the same angle when a person sits in the rear center position.
Otherwise, the person cannot wear the seat belt properly and this may

cause death or serious injuries in a collision.

■ 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. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to
extend so that you can move around fully.

■ Automatic locking retractor (ALR)

When a passenger's shoulder belt is completely extended and then
retracted even

slightly, the

belt is locked in that position and cannot be
extended. This feature is used to hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly.
To free the belt again, fully retract the belt and then pull the belt out once
more. (→P. 121)

● When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat

belt, follow the instructions on P. 68 regarding seat belt usage.

■ Replacing the belt after the pretensioner has been activated

If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensioner will activate
for the first collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent colli­sions.

CAUTION

Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Failing to do so may cause death or severe injury.

■ Wearing a seat belt

● Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.

● Always wear a seat belt properly.

● Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt

for more than one person at once, including children.

● Toyota recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always

use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.

● Do not recline the seat any more than necessary to achieve a proper seat-

ing position. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting
up straight and well back in the seats.

● Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.

● Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.

■ Adjustable shoulder anchor

Always make sure the shoulder belt is positioned across the center of your
shoulder. The belt should be kept away from your neck, but not falling off
your shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce the amount of protection in an
accident and cause death or serious injuries in the event of a sudden stop,
sudden swerve or accident. (→P. 69)

If your seat belts cannot be fastened
securely because they are not long
enough, a personalized seat belt
extender is available from your Toyota
dealer free of charge.

74

1-3. Adjustable components (seats, mirrors, steering wheel)

CAUTION

■ Seat belt pretensioners

● Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger's seat.

Doing so will disperse the passenger's weight, which prevents the sensor
from detecting the passenger's weight properly. As a result, the seat belt
pretensioner for the front passenger's seat may not activate in the event of
a collision.

● 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
your Toyota dealer.

■ Child restraint lock function belt precaution

Do not allow children to play with the child restraint lock function belt. If the
belt becomes twisted around a child’s neck, it will not be possible to pull the
belt out leading to choking or other serious injuries that could result in death.
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used
to cut the belt.

■ Seat belt damage and wear

● Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be

jammed in the door.

● Inspect the seat belt system periodically . Check for cuts, fraying, and loose

parts. Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged seat
belt cannot protect an occupant from death or serious injury.

● Ensure that the belt and tab are locked and the belt is not twisted.

If the seat belt does not function correctly , immediately contact your Toyota
dealer.

● Replace the seat assembly, including the belts, if your vehicle has been

involved in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage.

● Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the

seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Toyota dealer.
Inappropriate handling of the pretensioner may prevent it from operating
properly resulting in death or serious injury.

CAUTION

■ When using the second center seat belt

■ Using a seat belt extender

● Do not wear the seat belt extender if you can fasten the seat belt without

the extender.

● Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a child restraint system

because the belt will not securely hold the child restraint system, increas­ing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.

● The personalized extender may not be safe on another vehicle, when

used by another person, or at a different seating position other than the
one originally intended.

NOTICE

■ When using a seat belt extender

When releasing the seat belt, press on the buckle release button on the
extender, not on the seat belt.
This helps prevent damage to the vehicle interior and the extender itself.

Do not use the second center seat belt
with either buckle released.

Fastening only one of the buckles may
result in death or serious injury in case of
sudden braking or a collision.
