Preparations for safe driving with children in the vehicle

Riding with children

If a child which is not large enough to correctly wear a seat belt intended for adults
is to ride in the vehicle, use a child restraint system. Child restraint systems are
designed to keep children safe.
To ensure safety, observe the following when children are in the vehicle.

Make sure that children always wear a seat belt.
If a child is not wearing a seat belt, in a collision, they may collide with a window,
other passenger, or the interior of the vehicle. Also, if a child is riding on the
lap of another passenger, in a collision, they may collide with a window, other
passenger, or the interior of the vehicle.

Seat children in the rear seats.
It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid accidental contact
with the driver's controls.

Do not allow children to operate equipment such as the doors, windows, etc.
Do not let children operate equipment such as the doors, power windows, seats,
etc. as a part of their body may become pinched.
To prevent children from opening and closing the doors and power windows, use
the child-protector locks and window lock switch.

Never use a rear-facing child restraint system
on the front passenger seat when the airbag
manual on-off switch is on.
The force of the rapid inflation of the front
passenger airbag can cause death or serious
injury to children in the event of an accident.

There is a label(s) on the passenger side sun visor, indicating it is forbidden to
attach a rear-facing child restraint system to the front passenger seat.

WARNING

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.

Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle.
Children may accidentally cause the vehicle to move, leading to an accident, or start a
fire.

Do not leave people or animals in the vehicle.
The temperature inside the vehicle can become extremely high during the daytime,
possibly leading to heat stroke or death.

Do not allow children to ride on the lap of a passenger.
If a child is riding on the lap of another passenger, in a collision, they may collide with a
window, another passenger, or the interior of the vehicle. Make sure that children wear
a seat belt or use a child restraint system.

Use a child restraint system for small children.
If a child which is not large enough to correctly wear a seat belt is to ride in the vehicle,
use a child restraint system.

Use child restraint systems correctly.
Child restraint systems are designed to protect children in a collision or sudden stop.
Make sure to securely install child restraint systems and use them correctly.

Replace child restraint systems which have been involved in a collision.
If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, it is possible that an installed child
restraint system has been damaged and will not be able to deliver the same level of
impact absorption performance, even if the outside of it looks normal.

When a child restraint system is not in use, secure it so that it does not interfere with
driving.
When removing a child restraint system, store it outside of the vehicle or securely in
the luggage compartment.

Seating positions for children

It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid accidental contact
with the driver’s controls. In the event of an accident, the force of deployment of the
SRS front passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to a child seated on
the front passenger’s seat. Do not allow a child to ride on the front passenger’s seat
unless it is unavoidable.

WARNING

When installing a child restraint system to the front passenger’s seat is unavoidable,
move the seat as far back as possible, and install the child restraint system so that it
faces forward. If the child restraint system is not installed correctly, in the event of an
accident, the force of deployment of the SRS front passenger airbag can cause death
or serious injury.

Do not allow children to lean against the doors, roof side rails, or pillars. In the event
of an accident, the force of deployment of an SRS airbag can cause death or serious
injury to a child.

When adjusting the driver’s seat, if it contacts a child or child restraint system, install
the child restraint system to the rear seat behind the front passenger’s seat.

Adjust the front passenger seat so that it does not interfere with the child or child
restraint system.

If a child which is over 100 cm tall is to ride in the vehicle, use a junior seat. When using
a junior seat, make sure that the seat belt is worn correctly.

Preventing the rear doors from being opened from the inside of the
vehicle (child-protector lock)

The door cannot be opened from inside the vehicle when the lock is set.

Selecting an appropriate child restraint system

Precautions for selecting a child restraint system

To ensure safety, observe the following when using a child restraint system.

Make sure to observe the precautions regarding child restraint systems.

Choose a child restraint system appropriate to the age and size of the child.

Check the compatibility of the child restraint system with each seating position.
Depending on the child restraint system, it may not be able to be installed.

For details about use of a child restraint system, check the user’s manual of the
child restraint system.

WARNING

Check that the seat belt for the seat next to a child restraint system can be worn
properly. Depending on the type of child restraint system, the seat belt may not be able
to be worn properly. In this case, use another seat.

When adjusting the driver’s seat, if it contacts a child or child restraint system, install
the child restraint system to the rear seat behind the front passenger’s seat.

Adjust the front passenger seat so that it does not interfere with the child or child
restraint system.

When installing a child restraint system with support base, if the child restraint system
contacts a seatback when installing it to the support base, adjust the seatback rear-
ward until they do not contact.

If the seat belt shoulder anchor is in front of the
seat belt guide of a child restraint system, move
the seat forward.

When installing a junior seat, if the child in your child restraint system is in a very
upright position, adjust the seatback angle to the most comfortable position.

Selecting a child restraint system

Use a child restraint system that conforms to UN (ECE) R44 or UN (ECE) R129.
UN (ECE) R44 and UN (ECE) R129 are U.N. regulations for child restraint
systems.
