107263 - 2005 Solara Ins PRG 10 / 27 / 04 6 : 14 PM Page 24 SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES • The driver and front passenger airbag Supplemental Restraint System ( SRS ) is designed only as a supplement to the primary protection of the seat belt systems of the driver and front passenger . The front seat occupants are particularly susceptible to injury if they do not wear their seat belts ; when sudden braking or a collision occurs , they may be thrown forward . To obtain maximum protection in an accident , the driver and all passengers in the vehicle should always wear their seat belts when driving because serious injuries or death can result to unrestrained occupants . For instructions and precautions concerning the seat belt system , see “ Seat belts � in the Owner’s Manual . • Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system on the rear seat that conforms to the size of the child . According to accident statistics , a child is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat than on the front seat . • Never use a rear - facing child restraint system in the front seat even if the front passenger occupant classification indicator light is “ OFF . � The force of the rapid inflation of the passenger airbag can cause severe injury or death to a child . • Unless it is unavoidable , do not install a forward - facing child restraint system in the front seat even if the front passenger occupant classification indicator light is “ OFF . � If you must install a forward - facing child restraint system in that the front seat , move the seat as far back as possible . • Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by the child restraint manufacturer and the system is properly secured . • Make sure the front passenger occupant classification indicator light indicates “ ON � when using the seat belt extender for the front passenger seat . If the indicator light indicates “ OFF , � disconnect the extender tongue from the seat belt buckle , then reconnect the seat belt . Reconnect the seat belt extender after making sure the indicator light indicates “ ON . � If you use the seat belt extender while the indicator light indicates “ OFF , � the front passenger airbag and side airbag on the front passenger side may not activate correctly , which could cause death or serious injury in the event of collision . • If an adult sits in the front passenger seat , the occupant classification indicator light should indicate “ ON . � If the “ OFF � indicator is illuminated , ask the passenger to sit up straight , well back in the seat , feet on the floor , and with the seat belt worn correctly . If the “ OFF � indicator still remains illuminated , either ask the passenger to move to the rear seat , or if that is not possible , move the front passenger seat fully rearward . • The SRS side and side curtain airbags ( optional ) are designed to deploy in certain types of severe side impact collisions . In all other collisions , the side impact and side curtain airbags will not deploy . For instructions and precautions , see your Owner’s Manual . • Do not lean against the side doors when the vehicle is in use . The side and side curtain airbags inflate with considerable speed and force . Death or serious injury could result . • Do not modify , cover or replace the surface of the front seats . Such changes could disable the system or prevent the airbags from activating correctly , resulting in death or serious injury . 24
