1-1. For safe use
WARNING
• Move your seat to the rear as
far as you can while still reach-
ing the pedals comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the
seat.
Although vehicle designs vary,
many drivers can achieve the
10 in. (250 mm) distance, even
with the driver seat all the way
forward, simply by reclining the
back of the seat somewhat. If
reclining the back of your seat
makes it hard to see the road,
raise yourself by using a firm,
non-slippery cushion, or raise
the seat if your vehicle has that
feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjust-
able, tilt it downward. This
points the airbag toward your
chest instead of your head and
neck.
The seat should be adjusted as
recommended by NHTSA above,
while still maintaining control of
the foot pedals, steering wheel,
and your view of the instrument
panel controls.
● If the seat belt extender has
been connected to the front
passenger’s seat belt buckle but
the seat belt extender has not
also been fastened to the latch
plate of the seat belt, the SRS
front airbags will judge that the
front passenger is wearing the
seat belt even though the seat
belt has not been connected. In
this case, the SRS front airbags
for the front passenger may not
activate correctly in a collision,
resulting in death or serious
injury in the event of a collision.
Be sure to wear the seat belt
with the seat belt extender.
● The SRS front passenger air-
bag also deploys with consider-
able force, and can cause death
or serious injury especially if the
front passenger is very close to
the airbag. The front passenger
seat should be as far from the
airbag as possible with the seat-
back adjusted, so the front pas-
senger sits upright.
● Improperly seated and/or
restrained infants and children
can be killed or seriously injured
by a deploying airbag. An infant
or child who is too small to use
a seat belt should be properly
secured using a child restraint
system. Toyota strongly recom-
mends that all infants and chil-
dren be placed in the rear seats
of the vehicle and properly
restrained. The rear seats are
safer for infants and children
than the front passenger seat.
