D
Improperly seated and/or restrained
infants and children can be killed
or seriously injured by the deploy-
ing airbags. An infant or child who
is too small to use a seat belt
should be properly secured using a
child restraint system. Toyota
strongly recommends that all in-
fants and children be placed in the
rear seats of the vehicle and prop-
erly restrained. The rear seats are
the safest for infants and children.
For instructions concerning
installation of a child restraint sys-
tem, see "Child restraint" on page
83 in this Section.
D
Do not allow anyone to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body
against the front door or the area
of the seat from which the SRS
side airbag deploys even if he/she
is a child seated in the child re-
straint system. It is dangerous if
the SRS side airbag inflates, and
the impact of the deploying airbag
could cause death or serious injury
to the occupant.

the
The SRS side airbag system may not
activate if the vehicle is subjected to a
collision from the side
angles, or a collision to the side of the
vehicle body other than the passenger
compartment as shown in the illustra-
tion.
The SRS side airbags are designed to
inflate when the passenger compartment
area suffers a severe impact from the
side.
Always wear your seat belts properly.
Collision from the front
The SRS side airbags are not generally
designed to inflate if the vehicle is in-
at certain volved in a front or rear collision, if it
rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-
speed side collision.
