Safety Connect services

    Automatic Collision Notifi- cation

In case of either airbag deploy-

ment or severe rear-end colli- sion, the system is designed to automatically call the response center. The responding agent receives the vehicle’s location and attempts to speak with the vehicle occupants to assess the level of emergency. If the occu- pants are unable to communi- cate, the agent automatically treats the call as an emergency, contacts the nearest emer- gency services provider to describe the situation, and requests that assistance be sent to the location.

    Stolen Vehicle Location

If your vehicle is stolen, Safety Connect can work with local authorities to assist them in locating and recovering the vehicle. After filing a police report, call the Customer Experi- ence Center at 1-800-331-4331 in the United States, 1-877-855- 8377 in Puerto Rico or 1-888- 869-6828 in Canada, and follow the prompts for Safety Connect to initiate this service.

In addition to assisting law enforcement with recovery of a stolen vehicle, Safety-Connect- equipped vehicle location data may, under certain circum- stances, be shared with third parties to locate your vehicle. Further information is available at Toyota.com in the United States, Toyotapr.com in Puerto

Rico and Toyota.ca in Canada.

    Emergency Assistance But- ton (“SOS”)

In the event of an emergency on the road, push the “SOS” button to reach the Safety Connect response center. The answering agent will determine your vehi- cle’s location, assess the emer- gency, and dispatch the necessary assistance required.

    Exposure to radio fre- quency signals

The Safety Connect system installed in your vehicle is a low- power radio transmitter and receiver. It receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for mobile wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by the following U.S. and international standards bodies.

    ANSI (American National Standards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
    NCRP (National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement) Report 86 [1986]
    ICNIRP (International Com- mission on Non-Ionizing Radi- ation Protection) [1996]

Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant sci- entific literature. Over 120 scien- tists, engineers, and physicians

complies with the FCC guide- lines in addition to those stan- dards.
