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 shatter the wind-
shield as it is laminated glass.

: Contact your Toyota dealer or any
reliable repairer, or aftermarket
accessory manufacturer 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 possi-
ble due to seating position, passenger
body type, etc.
When using an emergency hammer,
consider your seat location and the
size of the window opening to ensure
that the opening is accessible and
large enough to escape.
