2004 ECHO S/D from Feb. ’04 Prod. (OM52573U)
Your vehicle is equipped with a crash
sensing and diagnostic module, which will
record the use of the seat belt restraint
system by the driver and front passenger
when the SRS side airbags are inflated.
CAUTION
The SRS side airbag system is de-
signed only as a supplement to the
primary protection of the driver and
front passenger seat belt systems.
To ensure maximum protection in
an accident, the driver and all pas-
sengers in the vehicle must wear
their seat belts properly. Wearing a
seat belt properly during an acci-
dent reduces the chances of death
or serious injury or being thrown
out of the vehicle. For instructions
and precautions concerning the seat
belt system, see “Seat belts—” on
page 37.
Do not allow anyone to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body
against the door or the area of the
seat from which the SRS side air-
bag deploys even if he/she is a
child seated in the child restraint
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.
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 the
installation of a child restraint sys-
tem, see “Child restraint—” on page
58.
