n SRS airbag precautions
l Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side
airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the airbags.
l Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS air-
bag components shown on P. 90. Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to
malfunction.
l Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS air-
bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.
l If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbag has deployed, open a
door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do
so. Wash off any residue as soon as possible to prevent skin irritation.
l If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel
pad and front pillar garnish, are damaged or cracked, have them replaced
by your Toyota dealer.
l 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 SRS front
passenger airbag may not deploy in the event of a collision.
l Do not attach anything to or lean any-
thing against areas such as the dash-
board, steering wheel pad. These items
can become projectiles when SRS
driver and front passenger airbags
deploy.
l Do not attach anything to areas such as
the door, windshield glass, side door
glass, front and rear pillars, roof side
rail or assist grip.
l Do not hang coat hangers or other hard
objects on the coat hooks. All of these
items could become projectiles and
seriously injure or kill you, should the
SRS curtain shield airbag deploy.
