v2003 4RUNNER from Aug. ’02 Prod. (OM35795U)

Scrapping of your Toyota

The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your

Toyota contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is

scrapped with the airbags and pretensioners left as they

are, it may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to

have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt preten-

sioner removed and disposed of by a qualified service

shop or by your Toyota dealer before you dispose of your

vehicle.

On–pavement and off–road

driving tips

This vehicle belongs to the utility vehicle class. Utility ve-

hicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other

types of vehicles. This vehicle will handle and maneuver

differently from an ordinary passenger car because it is

designed for off–road use also. In addition, this vehicle

has a higher ground clearance and center of gravity than

that of an ordinary passenger car. This vehicle design fea-

ture causes this type of vehicle to be more likely to rol-

lover. Failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in

loss of control, accidents or vehicle rollover causing death

or serious injury. Be sure to read “Off–road vehicle precau-

tions” on page 234 in Section 2 and “Off–road driving pre-

cautions” on page 253 in Section 3.
