Important information about your Toyota

Occupant restraint systems

Toyota encourages you and your family to take the time to

read Section 1−3 of this Owner’s Manual carefully. In

terms of helping you understand how you can receive the

maximum benefit of the occupant restraint systems this

vehicle provides, Section 1−3 of this Owner’s Manual is

the most important Section for you and your family to

read.

Section 1−3 describes the function and operation concern-

ing seats, seat belts, SRS airbags and child restraint sys-

tems of this vehicle and some potential hazards you

should be aware of. These systems work together along

with the overall structure of this vehicle in order to provide

occupant restraint in the event of a crash. The effect of

each system is enhanced when it is used properly and

together with other systems. No single occupant restraint

system can, by itself, provide you or your family with the

equal level of restraint which these systems can provide

when used together. That is why it is important for you and

your family to understand the purpose and proper use of

each of these systems and how they relate to each other.

The purpose of all occupant restraint systems is to help

reduce the possibility of death or serious injury in the

event of a collision. None of these systems, either individ-

ually or together, can ensure that there is no injury in the

event of collision. However, the more you know about

these systems and how to use them properly, the greater

your chances become of surviving an accident without

death or serious injury.

Seat belts provide the primary restraint to all occupants of

the vehicle, and every occupant of the vehicle should wear

seat belts properly at all times. Children should always be

secured in child restraint systems that are appropriate for

their age and size. SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)

airbags are, as their names imply, designed to work with,

and be supplemental to, seat belts and are not substitutes

for them. SRS airbags can be very effective in reducing

the risk of head and chest injuries by preventing contact of

the head and chest with interior portions of the vehicle.

iv

2007 SEQUOIA from Aug. ’07 Prod. (OM34462U)

In order to be effective, the SRS airbags must deploy with

tremendous speed. The rapid deployment of the SRS air-

bags makes the SRS airbags themselves potential sources

of death or serious injury if an occupant is too close to an

airbag, or if an object or some part of his or her body has

been placed between the occupant and the airbag at the

time of deployment. This is just one example of how the

instructions in Section 1−3 of this Owner’s Manual will help

ensure proper use of the occupant restraint systems, and

increase the safety they can provide to you and your fami-

ly in the event of an accident.

Toyota recommends you to read the provisions in Section

1−3 carefully and refer to them as needed during your time

of ownership of this vehicle.

Event data recorder

Your vehicle has computers that monitor and control cer-

tain aspects of your vehicle. These computers assist in

driving and maintaining optimal vehicle performance. Be-

sides storing data useful for troubleshooting, there is a

system to record data in a crash or a near car crash

event. This is called an Event Data Recorder (EDR).

The SRS airbag sensor assembly contains the EDR. In a

crash or a near car crash event, this device may record

some or all of the following information:

D Engine speed

D Whether the brake pedal was applied or not

D Vehicle speed

D To what extent the accelerator pedal was depressed

D Position of the transmission selector lever

D Whether the driver and front passenger wore the

seat belts or not

D Driver’s seat position

D Front passenger’s occupant classification

v

2007 SEQUOIA from Aug. ’07 Prod. (OM34462U)

D SRS airbag deployment data

D SRS airbag system diagnostic data

If your vehicle is equipped with a vehicle stability control

(VSC) system, its Electronic Control Unit (ECU) may con-

tain another EDR. There are a variety of driving situations

which include activating the VSC under which the VSC

EDR will record certain information. The VSC EDR may

record some or all of the following information:

D Behavior of the vehicle

D Steering wheel angle

D Vehicle speed

D To what extent the accelerator pedal was depressed

D To what extent the brake pedal was applied

D To what extent the ECU controlled the condition of

the 4 wheels

D Vehicle stability control system diagnostic data

The information above is intended to be used for the

purpose of improving vehicle safety performance. Unlike

general data recorders, the EDR does not record sound

data such as conversation between passengers.

Toyota will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a

third party except when:

D An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the leas-

ing company for a leased vehicle) is obtained

D Officially requested by the police or other authorities

D Used as a defense for Toyota in a law suit

D Ordered by the court

However, if necessary Toyota will:

D Use the data for research on Toyota vehicle safety

performance

D Disclose the data to a third party for research pur-

poses without disclosing details of the vehicle

owner, and only when it is deemed necessary

D Disclose summarized data cleared of vehicle identifi-

cation information to a non−Toyota organization for

research purposes

Accessories, spare parts and

modification of your Toyota

A wide variety of non−genuine spare parts and accesso-

ries for Toyota vehicles are currently available in the

market. You should know that Toyota does not warrant

these products and is not responsible for their perfor-

mance, repair, or replacement, or for any damage they

may cause to, or adverse effect they may have on,

your Toyota vehicle.

This vehicle should not be modified with non−genuine

Toyota products. Modification with non−genuine Toyota

products could affect its performance, safety or durabili-

ty, and may even violate governmental regulations. In

addition, damage or performance problems resulting from

2007 SEQUOIA from Aug. ’07 Prod. (OM34462U)

Installation of a mobile

two−way radio system

As the installation of a mobile two−way radio system in

your vehicle could affect electronic systems such as

multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel

injection system, electronic throttle control system,

cruise control system, anti−lock brake system, traction

control system (two−wheel drive models)/active traction

control system (four−wheel drive models), vehicle stabil-

ity control system, rear height control air suspension

system, tire pressure warning system, SRS airbag sys-

tem and seat belt pretensioner system, be sure to

check with your Toyota dealer for precautionary mea-

sures or special instructions regarding installation.

Tires and loading on your

Toyota

Underinflated or overinflated tire pressure and the ex-

cess load may result in the deterioration of steering abili-

ty and braking ability, leading to an accident. Check the

tire inflation pressure periodically and be sure to keep

the load limits given in this Owner’s Manual. For details

about tire inflation pressure and load limits, see pages

437 and 363.

ix

2007 SEQUOIA from Aug. ’07 Prod. (OM34462U)

Scrapping of your Toyota

The SRS airbag and front seat belt pretensioner devices

in your Toyota contain explosive chemicals. If the ve-

hicle is scrapped with the airbags and pretensioners left

as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire.

Be sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and

seat belt pretensioner 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

vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than

other types of vehicles. This vehicle will handle and

maneuver differently from an ordinary passenger car be-

cause 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 feature causes this type of vehicle to be

more likely to rollover. 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 precautions” on page 338 in

Section 2 and “Off−road driving precautions” on page

374 in Section 3.

Leak detection pump

This pump performs fuel evaporation leakage check. This

check is done approximately five hours after the engine is

turned off. So you may hear sound coming from under-

neath the luggage compartment for several minutes. It

does not indicate a malfunction.

Perchlorate Material

Special handling may apply,

See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.

Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate.

These components may include airbag, seat belt preten-

sioners, and wireless remote control batteries.
