4Runner's driver-side and front passenger-side 
airbags are a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) 
designed to inflate in a severe frontal collision.  
In all other accidents, seatbelts offer primary 
protection and the airbags will not inflate.  
Do not sit or place objects close to an airbag.  
To minimize the risk of sever injury or death in all 
types of crashes, seatbelts must be worn at all 
times by all vehicle occupants.  Do not use 
rearward-facing child seats in any front-passenger seat.  
The force of a deploying airbag SRS may cause serious 
injury or death.  For more information on airbags and 
instructions on child seat usage, see the Owner's Manual.
