Toyota Sienna 2010-2024 Owners Manual: Front passenger occupant
classification system
Your vehicle is equipped with a front passenger occupant classification
system. This system detects the conditions of the front
passenger seat and activates or deactivates the devices for the
front passenger.
- SRS warning light
- Seat belt reminder light
- “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light
- “AIR BAG ON” indicator light
Condition and operation in the front passenger occupant classification
system
- Child*4 or child restraint system*5
- There is a malfunction in the system
*1: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller
adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her
as a child depending on his/her physique and posture.
*2: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt.
*3: In the event the front passenger does not wear a seat belt.
*4: When a larger child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits in the
front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as an adult
depending on his/her physique or posture.
*5: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger
seat. A forward-facing child restraint system should only be installed on
the front passenger seat when it is unavoidable.
*6: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this manual on how
to
install the child restraint system properly.
*7: In the event of a side collision.
*8: In the event of a frontal collision or rollover.
WARNING Front passenger occupant classification system
precautions
Observe the following precautions regarding the front passenger
occupant
classification system.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
Front passenger occupant classification system precautions
- Do not recline the front passenger seatback so far that it
touches a rear
seat. This may cause the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light to be
illuminated,
which indicates that the SRS airbags for the front passenger will
not activate
in the event of a severe accident. If the seatback touches the rear
seat, return the seatback to a position where it does not touch the
rear
seat. Keep the front passenger seatback as upright as possible when
the
vehicle is moving. Reclining the seatback excessively may lessen the
effectiveness of the seat belt system.
- If an adult sits in the front passenger seat, the “AIR BAG ON”
indicator
light is illuminated. If the “AIR BAG 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 “AIR BAG 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.
- When it is unavoidable to install a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger seat, install the child
restraint system on the front passenger seat in the proper order.
- Do not modify or remove the front seats.
- Do not kick the front passenger seat or subject it to severe
impact. Otherwise,
the SRS warning light may come on to indicate a malfunction of the
front passenger occupant classification system. In this case,
contact your
Toyota dealer immediately.
- Child restraint systems installed on the rear seat should not
contact the
front seatbacks.
- Do not use a seat accessory, such as a cushion and seat cover,
that covers
the seat cushion surface.
- Do not modify or replace the upholstery of the front seat.
