SRS airbag precautions
●
Regular Cab models: Do not use a seat accessory, such as a cushion or
seat cover, that covers the seat cushion surface.
●
Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side
airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the airbags.
●
Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS air-
bag components (→P. 84).
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 airbag has deployed, open a
door or 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.

●
Do not attach anything to or lean any-
thing against areas such as the dash-
board or steering wheel pad.
These items can become projectiles
when SRS driver and front passenger
airbags deploy.
●
Do not attach anything to areas such as
the door, windshield glass, side door
glass, front and rear pillars, roof side
rail or assist grip.
●
Do not hang coat hangers or other hard
objects on the coat hooks. All of these
items could become projectiles and
seriously injure or kill you, should the
SRS curtain shield airbag deploy.
