Keys
The master key works in every lock. The subkey will not work in the glovebox.
To protect things locked in the glovebox when you have your vehicle parked, leave the subkey with the attendant.
Since the side doors and back door can be locked without a key, you should always carry a spare master key in case you accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.
Keep the key number 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.
You should also put a copy of the key number with your important papers.

SUPRA (U)
Power windows
CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the doors are closed and locked, especially when small children are in the vehicle. Along with the proper use of seat belts, locking the doors helps prevent the driver and passengers from being thrown out from the vehicle during an accident. It also helps prevent the doors from being opened unintentionally.
The windows can be operated with the switch on each side door.
The power windows work when the ignition
switch |
is in |
the ”ON” |
position. |
However, |
if both |
side |
doors are |
closed, |
they work |
for 60 seconds even after the ignition switch is turned off. They stop working when either side door is opened.
OPERATING THE DRIVER’S WINDOW
Use the switch on the driver’s door.
Normal operation: The window moves as long as you hold the switch.
To open: Lightly pull down the switch. To close: Push up the switch.
Automatic operation (to open only): Pull the switch completely down and then release it. The window will fully open. To stop the window partway, lightly push the switch up and then release it.

SUPRA (U)
OPERATING THE PASSENGER’s WIN-
DOW
Use the switch on the passenger’s door. The driver’s door also has a switch that controls the passenger’s window.
The window moves as long as you hold the switch.
To open: Pull down the switch. To close: Push up the switch.
If you push in the window lock button on the driver’s door, the passenger’s window cannot be operated.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the following.
DAlways 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.
DWhen small children are in the vehicle, never let them use the power window switches without supervision. Use the window lock button to prevent them from making unexpected use of the switches.
DNever 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.

Front seats—
—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
DDo not drive the vehicle unless the occupants are not properly seated. Do not allow sitting on top of a folded−down seatback, or in the luggage compartment. Persons not properly seated and not properly restrained by seat belts can be severely injured in the event of emergency braking or a collision.
DDuring driving, do not allow passengers to stand up or move around between seats. Severe injuries can occur in the event of emergency braking or a collision.
CAUTION
DAdjustments 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.
DWhen adjusting the seat, be careful not to hit the seat against a passenger, luggage or rear seat.
D After adjusting the seat position, try sliding it forward and backward to make sure it is locked in position.
DAfter adjusting the seatback, exert body pressure to make sure it is locked in position.
DDo 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.

ADJUSTING SEATBACK ANGLE
Lean forward and pull the lock release lever. 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.
24
—Adjusting front seat (power seat)
ADJUSTING SEAT POSITION
Move the control switch to the desired direction.
Releasing the switch will stop the move in that position.
Do not place anything under the front seats. It might interfere with the seat movement.

Seat belts—
—Seat belt precautions
Toyota strongly urges that the driver and passengers in the vehicle be properly restrained at all times with the seat belts provided. Failure to do so could increase the chance of injury and/or the severity of injury in accidents.
Child. Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belts. See ”Child restraint” for details.
If a child is too large for a child restraint system, the child should sit in the rear seat and must be restrained using the vehicle’s seat belt. According to accident statistics, the child is safer when properly
restrained |
in the |
rear |
seat than in |
the |
|
front |
seat. |
|
|
|
|
If a |
child |
must sit |
in |
the front seat, |
the |
seat belts should be worn properly. If an accident occurs and the seat belts are not worn properly, the force of the rapid inflation of the airbag may cause death or serious injury to the child.
27
Do not allow the child to stand up or kneel on either rear or front seats. An unrestrained child could suffer serious injury or death during emergency braking or a collision. Also, do not let the child sit on your lap. It does not provide sufficient restraint.
Pregnant woman. Toyota recommends the use of a seat belt. Ask your doctor for specific recommendations. The lap belt should be worn securely and as low as possible over the hips and not on the waist.
Injured person. Toyota recommends the use of a seat belt. Depending on the injury, first check with your doctor for specific recommendations.
CAUTION
Persons should ride in their seats properly wearing their seat belts whenever the vehicle is moving. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer serious bodily injury or death in the event of sudden braking or a collision.
When using the seat belts, observe the following:
SUPRA (U)
DUse the belt for only one person at a time. Do not use a single belt for two or more people—even children.
DAvoid reclining the seatbacks too
much. The seat belts provide maximum protection when the seatbacks are in the upright position. (Refer to the seat adjustment instructions.)
DBe careful not to damage the belt webbing or hardware. Take care that they do not get caught or pinched in the seat or doors.
DInspect the belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose parts. Damaged parts should be replaced. Do not disassemble or modify the system.
DKeep the belts clean and dry. If they need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or lukewarm water. Never use bleach, dye, or abrasive clean- ers—they may severely weaken the belts.
DReplace the belt assembly (including bolts) if it has been used in a severe impact. The entire assembly should be replaced even if damage is not obvious.
—Seat belts
Adjust the seat as needed (front seats only) and sit up straight and well back in the seat. To fasten your belt, pull it out of the retractor and insert the tab into the buckle.
You will hear a click when the tab locks into the buckle.
The seat belt length automatically adjusts to your size and the seat position.
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It also may lock if you lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to extend, and you can move around freely.
28
SUPRA (U)
If the seat belt cannot be pulled out of the retractor, firmly pull the belt and release it. You will then be able to smoothly pull the belt out of the retractor.
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is completely extended and is 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 securely. (For details, see ”Child restraint” in this chapter.) To free the belt
again, fully |
retract the belt and then pull |
the belt out |
once more. |
CAUTION
DAfter inserting the tab, make sure the tab and buckle are locked and that the belt is not twisted.
DDo not insert coins, clips, etc. in the buckle as this may prevent you from properly latching the tab and buckle.
DIf the seat belt does not function normally, immediately contact your Toyota dealer. Do not use the seat until the seat belt is fixed. It cannot protect an adult occupant or your child from injury.
Adjust the position of the lap and shoulder belts.
Position the lap belt |
as low as |
possible |
on your hips—not on |
your waist, |
then ad- |
just it to a snug fit by pulling the shoulder portion upward through the latch plate.
CAUTION
D High−positioned lap belts and loose−fitting belts both could cause serious injuries due to sliding under the lap belt during a collision or other unintended result. Keep the lap belt positioned as low on hips as possible.
DFor your safety, do not place the shoulder belt under your arm.
29
To release the belt, press the buckle−release button and allow the belt to retract.
If the belt does not retract smoothly, pull it out and check for kinks or twists. Then make sure it remains untwisted as it retracts.
SUPRA (U)
CAUTION
For your safety, do not use the rear seat belts with the buckle in the rear seats.
—Seat belt extender
If your seat belt cannot be fastened securely because it is not long enough, a personalized seat belt extender is available from your Toyota dealer free of charge.
Please contact your local Toyota dealer so that the dealer can order the proper required length for the extender. Bring the heaviest coat you expect to wear for proper measurement and selection of length. Additional ordering information is available at your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
When using the seat belt extender, observe the following. Failure to follow these instructions could result in less effectiveness of the seat belt restraint system in case of vehicle accident, increasing the chance of personal injury.
DNever use the seat belt extender if you can fasten the seat belt without it.
