    Emergency flashers
    If the emergency flashers are used for a long time while the engine is not running, the battery may discharge.
    If any of the SRS airbags deploy (inflate) or in the event of a strong rear impact, the emergency flash- ers will turn on automatically.

The emergency flashers will turn off automatically after operating for approximately 20 minutes. To manually turn the emergency flashers off, press the switch twice. (The emergency flashers may not turn on automatically depending on the force of the impact and conditions of the colli- sion.)

    If the window can not be opened using the power win- dow switch, remain calm, wait until the water level inside the vehicle rises to the point that the water pressure inside of the vehicle equals the water pressure outside of the vehi- cle, and then open the door

and exit the vehicle. 8

WARNING
    Using an emergency hammer* for emergency escape

The front side windows and rear side windows, as well as the rear window can be shattered with an emergency hammer* used for emergency escape. However, an emergency hammer can not shat- ter the windshield as it is lami- nated glass.

*: Contact your Toyota dealer, or aftermarket accessory manu- facturer for further information about an emergency hammer.

    Escaping the vehicle from the window

There are cases where escaping the vehicle from the window is not possible due to seating position, passenger body type, etc.

When using an emergency ham- mer, consider your seat location and the size of the window open- ing to ensure that the opening is accessible and large enough to escape.
