1-3. Emergency assistance
For safety and security
● If the airbags deploy when the sys-
tem is operating normally, the sys-
tem makes emergency call. The
system also makes emergency call
when the vehicle is struck from the
rear or rolls over, even if the air-
bags do not deploy.
● For safety, do not make the Emer-
gency Call while driving.
Making calls during driving may
cause mishandling of the steering
wheel, which may lead to unex-
pected accidents.
Stop the vehicle and confirm the
safety of your surroundings before
making the Emergency Call.
● When changing fuses, please use
the specified fuses. Using other
fuses may cause ignition or smoke
in the circuit and lead to a fire.
● Using the system while there is
smoke or an unusual smell may
cause a fire. Stop using the system
immediately and consult any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
