Advice
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and seriousness of the impact, the pretensioning device may be deployed before and independently of the airbags. Deployment of the pretensioners is accompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes on.Following an impact, have the seat belts system checked, and if necessary replaced, by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:- be tightened as close to the body as possible,- be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it does not twist,- be used to restrain only one person,- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,- not be converted or modified to avoid affecting its performance.In accordance with current safety regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle's seat belts, go to a qualified workshop with the skills and equipment needed, which a Toyota dealer is able to provide.Have your seat belts checked regularly by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional, particularly if the straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or a textile cleaning product, sold by Toyota dealers.After folding or moving a seat or rear bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned and reeled in correctly.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shorter than one and a half metres.Never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person.Never allow a child to travel on your lap.For more information on Child seats, refer to the corresponding section.
The driver must ensure that passengers use the seat belts correctly and that they are all fastened before setting off.Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, always fasten your seat belt, even for short journeys.Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfill their role fully.The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel permitting automatic adjustment of the length of the strap to your size. The seat belt is stowed automatically when not in use.Before and after use, ensure that the seat belt is reeled in correctly.The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.The upper part must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic locking device which comes into operation in
the event of a collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release the device by pulling the strap firmly and then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.
