SRS airbag precautions
●
Do not attach anything to or lean any-
thing against areas such as the dash-
board, steering wheel pad and lower
portion of the driver's side instrument
panel.
These items can become projectiles
when the SRS driver, front passenger
and knee airbags deploy.
●
Do not attach anything to areas such as
a door, windshield, side windows, front
or rear pillar, roof side rail, and assist
grip.
●
Do not hang coat hangers or other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of
these items could become projectiles and may cause death or serious
injury, should the SRS curtain shield airbags deploy.
●
If a vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS knee airbag will deploy,
be sure to remove it.
●
Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side
airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the SRS airbags.
Such accessories may prevent the side airbags from activating correctly,
disable the system or cause the side airbags to inflate accidentally, result-
ing in death or serious injury.
●
Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS air-
bag components or the front doors.
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction.
●
Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS air-
bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.
●
If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbags have deployed, open a
door or side 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.
●
If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel
pad and front and rear pillar garnishes, are damaged or cracked, have
them replaced by your Toyota dealer.
