Tires and loading on your
Toyota
Underinflated or overinflated tire pressure and the
excess  load  may  result  in  the  deterioration  of
steering  ability and  braking ability,  leading  to  an
accident. Check the tire inflation pressure periodi-
cally  and be  sure to keep the load limits given in
this Owner’s Manual. For details about tire inflation
pressure and load limits, see pages 207 and 278.
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  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  preten-
sioner  removed  and  disposed  of  by  the  qualified  service
shop  or  by  your  Toyota  dealer  before  you  dispose  of  your
vehicle.
