TION
A convertible seat is used in forward
facing and rear-facing position de-
pending on the child's age and size.When installing, follow the manufac-
turer 's instructions about the applica-
ble child's age and size as well as di-
rection of a child restraint system.

51
CAUTION!
Never use a rear-facing child re-
straint system in the front seat be-
cause the force of the rapid infla-
tion of the passenger airbag can cause severe injury to the chld. Ve-
hicles with a passenger airbag dis-
play a caution label on the passen-
ger side instrument panel as
shown above to remind you not to
install a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front seat at any time.
Only when it is unavoidable
should a forward-facing child re-
straint system be used on the front
seat. Always move the seat as far
back as possible because the force
of deploying airbag would cause
serious injury to the child. Do not use a rear-facing child re- straint system in the rear seat if it
interferes with the lock mecha-
nism of the front seats. This can
cause severe injury to the child
and front passenger in case of
sudden braking or a collision.

ing position only.CAUTION!
Only when it is unavoidable should
a forward-facing child restraint sys- tem be used on the front seat. Al-ways move the seat as far back as
possible because the force of de-
ploying airbag would cause seriousinjury to the child.

around the booster seat and child fol- lowing the instructions provided by its
manufacturer and insert the tab intothe buckle taking care not to twist the belt.
Make sure the shoulder belt is correctly
across the child's shoulder and that the
lap belt is positioned as low as possible on
child's hips. See Seat beltsº for details.

55
CAUTION!
Always make sure the shoulder
belt is positioned across the cen-
ter of child's shoulder. The belt
should be kept away from child's
neck, but not falling off child's
shoulder. Failure to do so could re-
duce the amount of protection in
an accident and increase the
chance of injury.
High-positioned lap belts and
loose-fitting belts both could in-
crease the chance of injury due to
sliding under the lap belt during an
accident. Keep the lap belt as lowon your hip bone as possible.
For child's safety, do not place the
shoulder belt under child's arm.

the tab and buckle are locked and
that the lap and shoulder portions
of the belt is not twisted.

child from injury. Contact your To-
yota dealer immediately. Do not
use the seat until the seat belt isfixed.

a. Using the illustration as a guide, run your fingers across trim of the filler panel- itself to locate the position of the holes un- derneath.
b. Make a hole in the covering directly
above the hole in the filler panel.
c. Insert a 10 mm (0.4 in.) spacer and tighten down the anchor bracket for your
child restraint system with a bolt. Torque the bolt to 16.5-24.7 NVm (1.68-2.52
kgf Vm, 12.2-18.2 ft Vlb.). To comply with Canada Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards, vehicles sold in Cana-
da are provided with a bracket set in the
glovebox,
designed for use with any of the
3 anchor locations shown in the illustra-tion.
If your child restraint system does not pro-
vide any of the necessary parts, ask your
Toyota dealer. (See ÐChild restraint sys-

Adjust the mirror so you can just see
the side of your vehicle in the mirror. Be careful when judging the size or dis- tance of any object seen in the outside
rear view mirror on the passenger's side.
It is a convex mirror with a curved surface.
Any object seen in a convex mirror will
look smaller and farther away than when
seen in a flat mirror.
CAUTION!
Do not adjust the mirror while the ve-
hicle is moving. It may cause the
driver to mishandle the vehicle and
an accident may occur resulting in
personal injuries.
To adjust the rear view mirror, simply
operate the control lever.
If ice should jam the mirror, do not operate the control or scrape the
mirror face. Use a spray de-icer to free the mirror.
