Safety Tips

LESSON 1: HOW TO USE SEATBELT

Seatbelts help restrain the occupant in the event of a collision.

STEP 1: Move the seat upright to find your most comfortable position.

STEP 2: Adjust your headrest. Make sure it’s slightly higher than your ears to avoid whiplash injury.

STEP 3: Lock the seatbelt and adjust the belt anchor to avoid the shoulder belt resting against your neck.

LESSON 2: HOW AIRBAGS WORK

Airbags cushion the impact on the occupant’s face and head during a collision.

Airbags deploy at the moment of impact.

About 0.1 second after impact, the seatbelts and the airbags protect the occupants.

The airbags deflate soon after deyployment.

LESSON 3: SEATBELT AND AIRBAG DYNAMICS

The way Toyota developed the airbag deployment ensures your utmost safety.

With the seatbelt on, the occupant is protected by both the seatbelt and the airbag.

Even with an airbag, not wearing a seatbelt heightens the risk of serious whiplash injury.

Without a seatbelt, the occupant is forcefully thrown into the windshield.

The Airbags work best with the seatbelts on. They work in tandem to keep the passengers safe from any harm or injury. THUMS is back to explain the other safety features found in every Toyota vehicle.
