Please note that this manual 
applies to all models and 
explains all equipment, including 
options. Therefore, you may find 
explanations for equipment not 
installed on your vehicle and the 
illustrations used may differ from 
your vehicle.

All specifications provided in this 
manual are current at the time of 
printing. Over time, your vehicle 
may receive updates that modify 
the vehicle and make material in 
this manual incomplete and/or 
inaccurate. Because of Toyota's 
interest in continual product 
improvement, Toyota reserves 
the right to make changes to this 
manual at any time without 
notice.

If Toyota chooses to update the 
manual, updated versions can 
be viewed by selecting your 
vehicle by model and year at the 
following URL or on your mobile 
device if you have access to the 
Toyota app.

Approximately five hours after 
the engine is turned off, you 
may hear sound coming from 

under the vehicle for several 
minutes. This is the sound of a 
fuel evaporation leakage check 
and, it does not indicate a mal-
function.

A wide variety of non-genuine 
spare parts and accessories for 
Toyota vehicles are currently 
available in the market. You 
should know that Toyota does 
not warrant these products and 
is not responsible for their per-
formance, repair, or replace-
ment, or for any damage they 
may cause to, or adverse effect 
they may have on, your Toyota 
vehicle.

This vehicle should not be modi-
fied with non-genuine Toyota 
products. Modification with 
non-genuine Toyota products 
could affect its performance, 
safety or durability, and may 
even violate governmental regu-
lations. In addition, damage or 
performance problems resulting 
from the modification may not 
be covered under warranty.

Also, remodeling like this will 
have an effect on advanced 
safety equipment such as Toy-
ota Safety Sense 3.0 and there 
is a danger that it will not work 
properly or the danger that it

The Magnuson-Moss Warranty 
Act, 15 U.S.C. s.2301 et seq., 
makes it illegal for motor vehicle 
manufacturers to void a motor 
vehicle warranty or deny war-
ranty coverage solely because 
an aftermarket or recycled part 
has been used to repair the 
vehicle or someone other than 
the authorized service provider 
performed service on the vehi-
cle. This provision does not 
apply to a new motor vehicle 
purchased solely for commercial 
or industrial use.

Under federal law, a manufac-
turer may deny warranty cover-
age and charge for repairs to a

vehicle if it is discovered that an 
aftermarket or recycled part 
installed on the vehicle is defec-
tive or was installed incorrectly 
and caused damage to another 
part of the vehicle otherwise 
covered under warranty. The 
Federal Trade Commission 
requires that a manufacturer 
demonstrate that an aftermar-
ket or recycled part or service 
performed by a person other 
than an authorized service pro-
vider caused damage to another 
part of the vehicle otherwise 
covered under warranty before 
denying warranty coverage. 
Additionally, federal law allows a 
manufacturer to void a motor 
vehicle warranty or deny war-
ranty coverage if the manufac-
turer provides the article or 
service to consumers free of 
charge under the warranty or 
the manufacturer has secured a 
waiver from the Federal Trade 
Commission.

This vehicle is equipped with an 
event data recorder (EDR). The 
main purpose 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. 
The EDR is designed to record 

data related to vehicle dynamics 
and safety systems for a short 
period of time, typically 30 sec-
onds or less.

The EDR in this vehicle is 
designed to record such data 
as:
• How various systems in your 

vehicle were operating;

• Whether or not the driver and 

passenger safety belts were 
buckled/fastened;

• How far (if at all) the driver 

was depressing the accelera-
tor and/or brake pedal; and,

• How fast the vehicle was trav-

eling.

These data can help provide a 
better understanding of the cir-
cumstances in which crashes 
and injuries occur.

NOTE: EDR data are recorded 
by your vehicle only if a non-triv-
ial crash situation occurs; no 
data are recorded by the EDR 
under normal driving conditions 
and no personal data (e.g., 
name, gender, age, and crash 
location) are recorded. How-
ever, other parties, such as law 
enforcement, could combine the 
EDR data with the type of per-
sonally identifying data rou-
tinely acquired during a crash 
investigation.

To read data recorded by an 
EDR, special equipment is 
required, and access to the 
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In 

Event data recorder

11

addition to the vehicle manufac-
turer, other parties, such as law 
enforcement, that have the spe-
cial equipment, can read the 
information if they have access 
to the vehicle or the EDR.

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 
government agency

• For use by Toyota in a lawsuit

However, if necessary, Toyota may:

• Use the data for research on 

vehicle safety performance

• Disclose the data to a third party 

for research purposes without 
disclosing information about the 
specific vehicle or vehicle owner

The SRS airbag and seat belt 
pretensioner devices in your 
Toyota contain explosive chemi-
cals. If the vehicle is scrapped 
with the airbags and seat belt 
pretensioners left as they are, 
this may cause an accident such 
as fire. Be sure to have the sys-
tems of the SRS airbag and seat 
belt pretensioner removed and 
disposed of by a qualified ser-
vice shop or by your Toyota 
dealer before you scrap your 

vehicle.

Special handling may apply, See 
www.dtsc.ca.gov/
hazardouswaste/perchlorate.

Your vehicle has components 
that may contain perchlorate. 
These components may include 
the airbags, seat belt preten-
sioners, wireless remote control 
batteries, and the batteries in 
the tire pressure warning valve 
and transmitters.

WARNING

General precautions while 

driving

Driving under the influence: Never 

drive your vehicle when under the 

influence of alcohol or drugs that 

have impaired your ability to oper-

ate your vehicle. Alcohol and cer-

tain drugs delay reaction time, 

impair judgment and reduce coor-

dination, which could lead to an 

accident that could result in death 

or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive 

defensively. Anticipate mistakes 

that other drivers or pedestrians 

might make and be ready to avoid 

accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give 

your full attention to driving. Any-

thing that distracts the driver, such 

as adjusting controls, talking on a 

cellular phone or reading can 

result in a collision with resulting 

death or serious injury to you, 

your occupants or others.

General precaution regarding 

children’s safety

Never leave children unattended 

in the vehicle, and never allow 

children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the 

vehicle or shift the vehicle into 

neutral. There is also a danger 

that children may injure them-

selves by playing with the win-

dows, the moon roof (if equipped), 

or other features of the vehicle. In 

addition, heat build-up or 

extremely cold temperatures 

inside the vehicle can be fatal to 

children.

1-1.For safe use

Use only floor mats designed 

specifically for vehicles of the 

same model and model year as 

your vehicle. Fix them securely 

in place onto the carpet.

1

Insert the retaining hooks 

(clips) into the floor mat eye-

lets.

2

Turn the upper knob of each 

retaining hook (clip) to secure 

the floor mats in place.

Always align the 

 marks  .

The shape of the retaining hooks 

(clips) may differ from that shown in 

the illustration.

Before driving

Observe the following 

before starting off in the 

vehicle to ensure safety of 

driving.

Floor mat

WARNING

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may cause the 

driver’s floor mat to slip, possibly 

interfering with the pedals while 

driving. An unexpectedly high 

speed may result or it may 

become difficult to stop the vehi-

cle. This could lead to an acci-

dent, resulting in death or serious 

injury.

When installing the driver’s 

floor mat

Do not use floor mats designed 

for other models or different 

model year vehicles, even if 

they are Toyota Genuine floor 

mats.

Only use floor mats designed 

for the driver’s seat.

Always install the floor mat 

securely using the retaining 

hooks (clips) provided.

Do not use two or more floor 

mats on top of each other.

Do not place the floor mat bot-

tom-side up or upside-down.

25

1-1. For safe use

1

For safety and secu

rity

Adjust the angle of the seat-

back so that you are sitting 

straight up and so that you do 

not have to lean forward to 

steer. (

P.125)

Adjust the seat so that you 

can depress the pedals fully 

and so that your arms bend 

slightly at the elbow when 

gripping the steering wheel. 

(

P.125)

place with the center of the 

head restraint closest to the 

top of your ears. (

P.128)

Wear the seat belt correctly. 

(

P.27)

WARNING

Before driving

Check that the floor mat is 

securely fixed in the correct 

place with all the provided 

retaining hooks (clips). Be espe-

cially careful to perform this 

check after cleaning the floor.

With the engine stopped and 

the shift lever in P, fully depress 

each pedal to the floor to make 

sure it does not interfere with 

the floor mat.

For safe driving

For safe driving, adjust the 

seat and mirror to an appro-

priate position before driv-

ing.

Correct driving posture

26

1-1. For safe use

Make sure that all occupants are 

wearing their seat belts before 

driving the vehicle. (

P.27)

Use a child restraint system 

appropriate for the child until the 

child becomes large enough to 

properly wear the vehicle’s seat 

belt. (

P.45)

Make sure that you can see 

backward clearly by adjusting 

the inside and outside rear view 

mirrors properly. (

P.131, 132)

WARNING

For safe driving

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in 

death or serious injury.

Do not adjust the position of the 

driver’s seat while driving.

Doing so could cause the driver 

to lose control of the vehicle.

Do not place a cushion between 

the driver or passenger and the 

seatback.

A cushion may prevent correct 

posture from being achieved, 

and reduce the effectiveness of 

the seat belt and head restraint.

Do not place anything under the 

front seats.

Objects placed under the front 

seats may become jammed in 

the seat tracks and stop the 

seat from locking in place. This 

may lead to an accident and the 

adjustment mechanism may 

also be damaged.

Always observe the legal speed 

limit when driving on public 

roads.

When driving over long dis-

tances, take regular breaks 

before you start to feel tired.

Also, if you feel tired or sleepy 

while driving, do not force your-

self to continue driving and take 

a break immediately.

Take care when adjusting the 

seat position to ensure that 

other passengers are not 

injured by the moving seat.

When adjusting the seat posi-

tion, do not put your hands 

under the seat or near the mov-

ing parts to avoid injury. Fingers 

or hands may become jammed 

in the seat mechanism.

Seat belts

Make sure that all occu-

pants are wearing their seat 

belts before driving the 

vehicle.

WARNING

Observe the following precautions 

to reduce the risk of injury in the 

event of sudden braking, sudden 

swerving or an accident.

Failure to do so may cause death 

or serious injury.

Wearing a seat belt

Ensure that all passengers wear 

a seat belt.

Always wear a seat belt prop-

erly.

Each seat belt should be used 

by one person only. Do not use 

a seat belt for more than one 

person at once, including chil-

dren.

Toyota recommends that chil-

dren be seated in the rear seat 

and always use a seat belt 

and/or an appropriate child 

restraint system.

To achieve a proper seating 

position, do not recline the seat 

more than necessary. The seat 

belt is most effective when the 

occupants are sitting up straight 

and well back in the seats.

Do not wear the shoulder belt 

under your arm.

Always wear your seat belt low 

and snug across your hips.

Pregnant women

Obtain medical advice and wear 

the seat belt in the proper way. 

(

P.28)

Women who are pregnant should 

position the lap belt as low as 

possible over the hips in the same 

manner as other occupants, 

extending the shoulder belt com-

pletely over the shoulder and 

avoiding belt contact with the 

rounding of the abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn prop-

erly, not only the pregnant 

woman, but also the fetus could 

suffer death or serious injury as a 

result of sudden braking or a colli-

sion.

People suffering illness

Obtain medical advice and wear 

the seat belt in the proper way. 

(

When children are in the vehi-

cle

P.58

Seat belt damage and wear

Do not damage the seat belts 

by allowing the belt, plate, or 

buckle to be jammed in the 

door.

28

1-1. For safe use

Extend the shoulder belt so 

that it comes fully over the 

shoulder, but does not come 

into contact with the neck or 

slide off the shoulder.

Position the lap belt as low as 

possible over the hips.

Adjust the position of the 

seatback. Sit up straight and 

well back in the seat.

Do not twist the seat belt.

Child seat belt usage

The seat belts of your vehicle were 

principally designed for persons of 

adult size.

Use a child restraint system 

appropriate for the child, until the 

child becomes large enough to 

properly wear the vehicle’s seat 

belt. (

P.45)

When the child becomes large 

enough to properly wear the vehi-

cle’s seat belt, follow the instruc-

tions regarding seat belt usage. 

(

P.27)

Seat belt extender

If your seat belts cannot be fastened 

securely because they are not long 

enough, a personalized seat belt 

extender is available from your Toy-

ota dealer free of charge.

WARNING

Inspect the seat belt system 

periodically. Check for cuts, 

fraying, and loose parts. Do not 

use a damaged seat belt until it 

is replaced. Damaged seat belts 

cannot protect an occupant 

from death or serious injury.

Ensure that the belt and plate 

are locked and the belt is not 

twisted.

If the seat belt does not function 

correctly, immediately contact 

your Toyota dealer.

Replace the seat assembly, 

including the belts, if your vehi-

cle has been involved in a seri-

ous accident, even if there is no 

obvious damage.

Do not attempt to install, 

remove, modify, disassemble or 

dispose of the seat belts. Have 

any necessary repairs carried 

out by your Toyota dealer. Inap-

propriate handling may lead to 

incorrect operation.

Correct use of the seat 

belts

WARNING

Using a seat belt extender

Do not wear the seat belt 

extender if you can fasten the 

seat belt without the extender.

To fasten the seat belt, push 

the plate into the buckle until 

a click sound is heard.

2

To release the seat belt, 
press the release button  .

Emergency locking retractor 

(ELR)

The retractor will lock the belt during 

a sudden stop or on impact. It may 

also lock if you lean forward too 

quickly. When the seat belt locks, 

pull the belt strongly and then 

release the belt, then a slow and 

easy pulling will allow the belt to 

extend.

Automatic locking retractor 

(ALR)

When a passenger’s shoulder belt is 

completely extended and then 

retracted even slightly, the belt is 

locked in that position and cannot 

be extended. This feature is used to 

hold the child restraint system 

(CRS) firmly. To free the belt again, 

fully retract the belt and then pull the 

belt out once more. (

P.45)

After using the rear center seat 

belt

Stow seat belt buckle in the pocket.

WARNING

Do not use the seat belt 

extender when installing a child 

restraint system because the 

belt will not securely hold the 

child restraint system, increas-

ing the risk of death or serious 

injury in the event of an acci-

dent.

The personalized extender may 

not be safe on another vehicle, 

when used by another person, 

or at a different seating position 

other than the one originally 

intended.

NOTICE

When using a seat belt 

extender

When releasing the seat belt, 

press on the buckle release but-

ton on the extender, not on the 

seat belt.

This helps prevent damage to the 

vehicle interior and the extender 

itself.

1

Push the seat belt shoulder 

anchor down while pressing 
the release button  .

2

Push the seat belt shoulder 

anchor up while pressing the 
release button  .

Move the height adjuster up and 

down as needed until you hear a 

click.

When the vehicle is subjected to 

a severe frontal or side impact 

or rollover, the pretensioners 

retract the seat belts of the front 

seats and rear outer seats to 

securely restrain the occupants.

The pretensioners will not operate 

in minor frontal or side impacts, or 

rear impacts.

Replacing the belt after the pre-

tensioner has been activated

If the vehicle is involved in multiple 

collisions, the pretensioner will acti-

vate for the first collision, but will not 

activate for the second or subse-

quent collisions.

PCS-linked control

If the PCS (Pre-Collision System) 

determines that the possibility of a 

collision with a vehicle is high, the 

seat belt pretensioners will be pre-

pared to operate.

WARNING

Adjustable shoulder anchor

Always make sure the shoulder 

belt is positioned across the cen-

ter of your shoulder. The belt 

should be kept away from your 

neck, but not falling off your shoul-

der. Failure to do so could reduce 

the amount of protection in an 

accident and cause death or seri-

ous injuries in the event of a sud-

den stop, sudden swerve or 

accident.

Seat belt pretensioners 

(front and outboard rear 

seats)

WARNING

Seat belt pretensioners

Observe the following precautions 

to reduce the risk of injury in the 

event of sudden braking or an 

accident. Failure to do so may 

result in death or serious injury.

Do not place anything, such as 

a cushion, on the front passen-

ger’s seat. Doing so will 

disperse the passenger’s 

weight, which prevents the sen-

sor from detecting the passen-

ger’s weight properly. As a 

result, the seat belt pretensioner 

for the front passenger’s seat 

may not operate in the event of 

a collision.

If a pretensioner has operated, 

the SRS warning light will illumi-

nate. In this situation, the seat 

belt cannot be used and must 

be replaced by your Toyota 

dealer.

Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed 

SRS airbags

The SRS airbags deploy when the vehicle is subjected to cer-
tain types of severe impact that may cause significant injury 
to the occupants. The airbags work together with the seat 
belts to help reduce the risk of death or serious injury.

SRS airbag system

32

1-1. For safe use

based on US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The air-
bag sensor assembly (ECU) controls airbag deployment based on 
information obtained from the sensors, etc., shown in the system 
components diagram above. This information includes crash sever-
ity and occupant information. As the airbags deploy, a chemical 
reaction in the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas to 
help restrain the motion of the occupants.

If the SRS airbags deploy 
(inflate)

Slight abrasions, burns, bruising, 
etc., may be sustained from SRS 
airbags, due to the extremely high 
speed of deployment (inflation) by 
hot gases.

A loud noise and white powder will 
be emitted.

Parts of the airbag module (steer-
ing wheel hub, airbag cover and 
inflator) as well as the parts 
around the airbags may be hot for 
several minutes. The airbag itself 
may also be hot.

The windshield may crack.

All of the doors will be unlocked.

occur, the system is designed to 
send an emergency call to the 
response center, notifying them of 
the vehicle’s location (without 
needing to push the “SOS” button) 
and an agent will attempt to speak 
with the occupants to ascertain 
the level of emergency and assis-
tance required. If the occupants 
are unable to communicate, the 
agent automatically treats the call 

as an emergency and helps to dis-
patch the necessary emergency 
services. (

or sign pole, which moves or 
deforms on impact
