Page 69 ● Usage of data collected through Safety Connect (U.S. mainland only) If your Toyota has Safety Connect and if you have subscribed to those ser- vices, please refer to the Safety Connect Telematics Subscription Service Agreement for information on data collected and its usage.
Page 70 Event data recorder This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main pur- pose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed.
Page 71 ● Disclosure of the EDR data Toyota will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a third party except when: • An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the lessee for a leased vehicle) is obtained • In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a govern- ment agency •...
Page 72 CAUTION General precautions while driving ■ Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ- ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi- cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in death or serious injury.
Page 73 In the event that your vehicle must be disposed of, the hybrid battery (traction battery) must be disposed of by your Toyota dealer or a qualified service shop. If the hybrid battery (traction battery) is not disposed of properly, it may cause electric shock that can result in death or serious injury.
Page 74 This is a warning against something which, if ignored, may cause damage to the vehicle or its equipment. You are informed about what you must or must not do in order to avoid or reduce the risk of damage to your Toyota and its equipment.

Page 233 1-9. Safety information Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed based on the US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The airbag sensor assembly (ECU) controls airbag deployment based on infor- mation obtained from the sensors etc. shown in the system compo- nents diagram above.
Page 234 1-9. Safety information SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags) ■ The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds ● the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approxi- mately 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
Page 235 1-9. Safety information Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other ■ than a collision The SRS front airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the underside of your vehicle. Some examples are shown in the illustration.
Page 236 1-9. Safety information Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags ■ (SRS side and curtain shield airbags) The SRS side and curtain shield airbags may not activate if the vehicle is subjected to a collision from the side at certain angles, or a collision to the side of the vehicle body other than the passenger compartment.

Page 238 1-9. Safety information The surface of the seats with the side ● airbag is scratched, cracked, or other- wise damaged. The portion of the front pillars, rear pil- ● lars or roof side rail garnishes (padding) containing the curtain shield airbags inside is scratched, cracked, or other- wise damaged.
Page 239 1-9. Safety information CAUTION SRS airbag precautions ■ Observe the following precautions regarding the SRS airbags. Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury. The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts ● properly.
Page 240 An infant or child who is too small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint sys- tem. Toyota strongly recommends that all infants and children 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.
Page 241 1-9. Safety information CAUTION SRS airbag precautions ■ Do not sit on the edge of the seat or ● lean against the dashboard. Do not allow a child to stand in front of ● the SRS front passenger airbag unit or sit on the knees of a front passenger.
Page 242 1-9. Safety information CAUTION 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 instrument panel. These items can become projectiles when the SRS driver, front passenger and knee airbags deploy.
Page 243 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 place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat. ●...

Page 254 1-9. Safety information CAUTION Child restraint precautions ■ Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger ● seat even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illuminated. In the event of an accident, the force of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to the child if the rear-facing child restraint system is installed on the front passenger seat.
Page 255 1-9. Safety information CAUTION When children are in the vehicle ■ Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries that could result in death.
Page 256 1-9. Safety information Installing child restraints Follow the child restraint system manufacturer’s instructions. Firmly secure child restraints to the seats using the LATCH anchors or a seat belt. Attach the top tether strap when installing a child restraint. The lap/shoulder belt can be used if your child restraint system is not compatible with the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Chil- dren) system.
Page 257 1-9. Safety information Installation with LATCH system STEP Widen the gap between the seat cushion and seatback slightly. Type A Latch the hooks of the lower STEP straps onto the LATCH anchors. If the child restraint has a top tether strap, the top tether strap should be latched onto the top tether strap anchor.
Page 258 1-9. Safety information Type B Latch the buckles onto the STEP LATCH anchors. If the child restraint has a top tether strap, the top tether strap should be latched onto the top tether strap anchor. For owners in Canada: The symbol on a child restraint system indicates the presence of a lower connector system.
Page 259 1-9. Safety information Installing child restraints using a seat belt (child restraint lock function belt) Rear facing Infant seat/convertible seat ■ Place the child restraint system STEP on the rear seat facing the rear of the vehicle. Run the seat belt through the STEP child restraint system and insert the plate into the buckle.
Page 260 1-9. Safety information While pushing the child restraint STEP system down into the rear seat, allow the shoulder belt to retract until the child restraint system is securely in place. After shoulder belt retracted to a point where there is no slack in the belt, pull the belt to check that it cannot be extended.
Page 261 1-9. Safety information Fully extend the shoulder belt STEP and then allow it to retract slightly in order to activate the ALR lock mode. Lock mode allows the seat belt to retract only. While pushing the child restraint STEP system into the rear seat, allow the shoulder belt to retract until the child restraint system is securely in place.
Page 262 1-9. Safety information Booster seat ■ Place the child restraint system STEP on the seat facing the front of the vehicle. Sit the child in the child restraint STEP system. Fit the seat belt to the child restraint system according to the manufacturer’s instruc- tions and insert the plate into the buckle.

Page 364 2-4. Using other driving systems Driving in vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of vehicles up to approximately 400 ft. (120 m) ahead, determines the current vehicle-to-vehicle following distance, and operates to maintain a suit- able following distance from the vehicle ahead.
Page 365 2-4. Using other driving systems Example of constant speed cruising When there are no vehicles ahead The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The desired vehicle-to- vehicle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle dis- tance control.

Page 367 2-4. Using other driving systems Selecting conventional constant speed control mode Constant speed control mode differs from vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode. When constant speed mode is selected, your vehicle will maintain a set speed regardless of whether or not there are other vehicles in the lane ahead.
