WARNING

Do not recline the front passen-

ger seatback so far that it

touches a rear seat. This may

cause the “PASS AIR BAG

OFF” indicator light to be illumi-

nated, which indicates that the

SRS airbags for the front pas-

senger will not activate in the

event of a severe accident. If

the seatback touches the rear

seat, return the seatback to a

position where it does not touch

the rear seat. Keep the front

passenger seatback as upright

as possible when the vehicle is

moving. Reclining the seatback

excessively may lessen the

effectiveness of the seat belt

system.

If an adult sits in the front pas-

senger seat, the “PASS AIR

BAG ON” indicator light is illumi-

nated. If the “PASS AIR BAG

OFF” indicator is illuminated,

ask the passenger to sit up

straight, well back in the seat,

feet on the floor, and with the

seat belt worn correctly. If the

“PASS AIR BAG OFF” indicator

still remains illuminated, either

ask the passenger to move to

the rear seat, or if that is not

possible, move the front pas-

senger seat fully rearward.

When it is unavoidable to install

a forward-facing child restraint

system on the front passenger

seat, install the child restraint

system on the front passenger

seat in the proper order.

(

P.52)

Do not modify or remove the

front seats.

Do not kick the front passenger

seat or subject it to severe

impact. Otherwise, the SRS

warning light may come on to

indicate a malfunction of the

front passenger occupant clas-

sification system. In this case,

contact your Toyota dealer

immediately.

Child restraint systems installed

on the rear seat should not con-

tact the front seatbacks.

Do not use a seat accessory,

such as a cushion and seat

cover, that covers the seat

cushion surface.

Do not modify or replace the

upholstery of the front seat.

Exhaust gas precau-

tions

Harmful substance to the
human body is included in
exhaust gases if inhaled.

WARNING

Exhaust gases include harmful

carbon monoxide (CO), which is

colorless and odorless. Observe

the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause

exhaust gases enter the vehicle

and may lead to an accident

caused by light-headedness, or

may lead to death or a serious

health hazard.

Important points while driving

Keep the back door closed.

If you smell exhaust gases in

the vehicle even when the back

door is closed, open the win-

dows and have the vehicle

inspected at your Toyota dealer

as soon as possible.

When parking

If the vehicle is in a poorly venti-

lated area or a closed area,

such as a garage, stop the

engine.

Do not leave the vehicle with

the engine running for a long

time.

If such a situation cannot be

avoided, park the vehicle in an

open space and ensure that

exhaust fumes do not enter the

vehicle interior.

Do not leave the engine running

in an area with snow build-up,

or where it is snowing. If snow-

banks build up around the vehi-

cle while the engine is running,

exhaust gases may collect and

enter the vehicle.

Exhaust pipe

The exhaust system needs to be

checked periodically. If there is a

hole or crack caused by corro-

sion, damage to a joint or abnor-

mal exhaust noise, be sure to

have the vehicle inspected and

repaired by your Toyota dealer.

1-2.Child safety

Riding with children

Observe the following pre-
cautions when children are
in the vehicle.

Use a child restraint system
appropriate for the child,
until the child becomes
large enough to properly
wear the vehicle’s seat belt.

It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact
with the shift lever, wiper
switch, etc.

Use the rear door child-pro-
tector lock or the window
lock switch to avoid children
opening the door while driv-
ing or operating the power
window accidentally.
(

P.120, 169)

Do not let small children
operate equipment which
may catch or pinch body
parts, such as the power
window, hood, back door,
seats etc.

WARNING

When children are in the vehi-

cle

Never leave children unattended

in the vehicle, and never allow

children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the

vehicle or shift the vehicle into

neutral. There is also a danger

that children may injure them-

selves by playing with the win-

dows, the moon roof or panoramic

moon roof, or other features of the

vehicle. In addition, heat build-up

or extremely cold temperatures

inside the vehicle can be fatal to

children.

The laws of all 50 states of the
U.S.A. as well as Canada now
require the use of child restraint
systems.

Prioritize and observe the
warnings, as well as the laws
and regulations for child
restraint systems.

Use a child restraint system
until the child becomes large
enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belt.

Choose a child restraint sys-
tem that suits your vehicle
and is appropriate to the age
and size of the child.

Child restraint sys-

tems

Before installing a child
restraint system in the vehi-
cle, there are precautions
that need to be observed,
different types of child
restraint systems, as well as
installation methods, etc.,
written in this manual.

Use a child restraint system
when riding with a small
child that cannot properly
use a seat belt. For the
child’s safety, install the
child restraint system to a
second seat. Be sure to fol-
low the installation method
that is in the operation man-
ual enclosed with the
restraint system.

Points to remember

WARNING

When a child is riding

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

For effective protection in auto-

mobile accidents and sudden

stops, a child must be properly

restrained, using a seat belt or

child restraint system which is

correctly installed. For installa-

tion details, refer to the opera-

tion manual enclosed with the

child restraint system. General

installation instruction is pro-

vided in this manual.

For safety and secu

rity

WARNING

Toyota strongly urges the use of

a proper child restraint system

that conforms to the weight and

size of the child, installed on the

second seat. According to acci-

dent statistics, the child is safer

when properly restrained in the

second seat than in the front

seat.

Holding a child in your or some-

one else’s arms is not a substi-

tute for a child restraint system.

In an accident, the child can be

crushed against the windshield

or between the holder and the

interior of the vehicle.

Handling the child restraint

system

If the child restraint system is not

properly fixed in place, the child or

other passengers may be seri-

ously injured or even killed in the

event of sudden braking, sudden

swerving, or an accident.

If the vehicle were to receive a

strong impact from an accident,

etc., it is possible that the child

restraint system has damage

that is not readily visible. In

such cases, do not reuse the

restraint system.

Make sure you have complied

with all installation instructions

provided with the child restraint

system manufacturer and that

the system is properly secured.

Keep the child restraint system

properly secured on the seat

even if it is not in use. Do not

store the child restraint system

unsecured in the passenger

compartment.

If it is necessary to detach the

child restraint system, remove it

from the vehicle or store it

securely in the luggage com-

partment.

Move the seat to the rearmost
position

Raise the seatback as much
as possible

If the head restraint interferes
with the installation of the
child restraint system, and the
head restraint can be
removed, remove the head
restraint

WARNING

When using a child restraint

system

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

Never install a rear-facing child

restraint system on the front

passenger seat even if the

“PASS AIR BAG OFF” indicator

light is illuminated. In the event

of an accident, the force of the

rapid inflation of the front pas-

senger airbag can cause death

or serious injury to the child if

the rear-facing child restraint

system is installed on the front

passenger seat.

A forward-facing child restraint

system may be installed on the

front passenger seat only when

it is unavoidable. A child

restraint system that requires a

top tether strap should not be

used in the front passenger seat

since there is no top tether strap

anchor for the front passenger

seat.

A forward-facing child restraint

system may be installed on the

front passenger seat only when

it is unavoidable. When install-

ing a forward-facing child

restraint system on the front

passenger seat, raise the seat-

back as much as possible, and

move the seat to the rearmost

position, even if the “PASS AIR

BAG OFF” indicator light is illu-

minated.

If the head restraint interferes with
the installation of the child
restraint system, and the head
restraint can be removed, remove
the head restraint.
If the head restraint cannot be
removed, raise it to the uppermost
position.

For safety and secu

rity

A child restraint system for a
small child or baby must itself be
properly restrained on the seat
with the lap portion of the
lap/shoulder belt.

system using a seat belt
(child restraint lock func-
tion belt)

Install the child restraint system
in accordance to the operation
manual enclosed with the child

Adjust the rear seat

If there is a gap between the child

seat and the seatback, adjust the

seatback angle until good contact is

achieved.

WARNING

Do not allow the child to lean

his/her head or any part of

his/her body against the door or

the area of the seat, front or rear

pillars, or roof side rails from

which the SRS side airbags or

SRS curtain shield airbags

deploy even if the child is

seated in the child restraint sys-

tem. It is dangerous if the SRS

side airbags and curtain shield

airbags inflate, and the impact

could cause death or serious

injury to the child.

When a booster seat is

installed, always ensure that the

shoulder belt is positioned

across the center of the child’s

shoulder. The belt should be

kept away from the child’s neck,

but not so that it could fall off the

child’s shoulder.

Use child restraint system suit-

able to the age and size of the

child and install it to the rear

seat.

If the driver’s seat interferes

with the child restraint system

and prevents it from being

attached correctly, attach the

child restraint system to the

right-hand rear seat.

Adjust the front passenger seat

so that it does not interfere with

the child restraint system.

system.
Since the seat belt automatically
reels itself, slowly return it to the
stowing position.

WARNING

When installing a child

restraint system

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

Do not allow children to play

with the seat belt. If the seat belt

becomes twisted around a

child’s neck, it may lead to

choking or other serious injuries

that could result in death.

If this occurs and the buckle

cannot be unfastened, scissors

should be used to cut the belt.

Ensure that the belt and plate

are securely locked and the

seat belt is not twisted.

Shake the child restraint system

left and right, and forward and

backward to ensure that it has

been securely installed.

After securing a child restraint

system, never adjust the seat.

When a booster seat is

installed, always ensure that the

shoulder belt is positioned

across the center of the child’s

shoulder. The belt should be

kept away from the child’s neck,

but not so that it could fall off the

child’s shoulder.

Follow all installation instruc-

tions provided by the child

restraint system manufacturer.

When securing some types of

child restraint systems in rear

seats, it may not be possible to

properly use the seat belts in

positions next to the child

restraint without interfering with

it or affecting seat belt effective-

ness. Be sure your seat belt fits

snugly across your shoulder

and low on your hips. If it does

not, or if it interferes with the

child restraint, move to a differ-

ent position. Failure to do so

may result in death or serious

injury.

When installing a booster

seat

To prevent the belt from going into

ALR lock mode, do not fully

extend the shoulder belt. ALR

mode causes the belt to tighten

only. This could cause injury or

discomfort to the child. (

P.28)

Do not use a seat belt

extender

If a seat belt extender is used

when installing a child restraint

system, the seat belt will not

securely hold the child restraint

system, which could cause death

or serious injury to the child or

other passengers in the event of

sudden braking, sudden swerv-

ing or an accident.
