Essential Safety Equipment
◆ Load limiter
The load limiting system releases belt webbing in a controlled man-
ner to reduce belt force on the occupant’s chest. While the most
severe load on a seat belt occurs in frontal collisions, the load lim-
iter has an automatic mechanical function and can activate in any
accident mode with sufficient occupant movement.
Even if the pretensioners have not fired, the load limiting function
must be checked by your Toyota dealer.
● The pretensioner system may not operate depending on the type of the col-
lision. For details, refer to the SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria (→P. 74)
● Some smoke (non-toxic gas) will be released when the air bags and preten-
sioners deploy. This does not indicate a fire. This gas normally has no effect
on occupants, however, those with sensitive skin may experience light skin
irritation. If residue from the deployment of the air bags or the front preten-
sioner system gets on the skin or in the eyes, wash it off as soon as possi-
ble.
