| * The Toyota driver,
front passenger and front seat-mounted side-impact
airbags are Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS).
The driver and front passenger airbags are designed
to deploy in severe (usually frontal) collisions where
the magnitude and duration of the forward deceleration
of the vehicle exceeds the design threshold level.
The side-impact airbags are designed to inflate in
severe sideimpact collisions. In all other accidents,
the airbags will not inflate. To decrease the risk
of injury from a deploying airbag, always wear seatbelts,
sit upright in the middle of the seat as far back
as possible from the airbag modules and do not lean
against the door. Do not put objects in front of an
airbag or around the seatback. Do not use rearward-facing
child seats in any front passenger seat. The force
of a deploying airbag SRS may cause serious injury
or death. Please see the Owner’s Manual for further
instructions. |
