1-2. Seat Belt Systems
1
Essential Safety Equipment
Seat Belt Precautions
All  of  the  seat  belt  retractors  are  designed  to  keep  the  lap/shoulder
belts out of the way when not in use.
The driver’s seat belt has no provisions for child-restraint sy stems and
has only an emergency locking mode . The driver may wear it comfort-
ably, and it will lock  during a collision.
However,  the  front  passenger’s  seat  and  all  rear  lap/shoulder  b elt
retractors  operate  in  two  modes:  emergency  locking  mode,  and  fo r
child-restraint  systems,  automatic  locking  mode.  While  we  recom -
mend you put all children in the rear seats, if you must use th e  front
passenger seat for a child, slide the front passenger seat as f ar back
as possible and make sure any ch ild-restraint system is secured prop-
erly.
Seat  belts  help  to  decrease  the  possibility  of  severe  injury
during  accidents  and  sudden  st ops.  Toyota  recommends  that
the driver and all passengers always wear seat belts.
WARNING
■ Always  wear  your  seat  belt  and  ma ke  sure  all  occupants  are  properly
restrained
Not  wearing  a  seat  belt  is  extremely  dangerous.  During  a  collis ion,  occu-
pants not wearing seat belts could hit someone or things inside  the vehicle
or  even  be  thrown  out  of  the  vehicle.  They  could  be  seriously  i njured  or
even  killed.  In  the  same  collision,  occupants  wearing  seat  belt s  would  be
much safer.

451-3. Child Restraint
1
Essential Safety Equipment
Even if the front passenger air bag is shut off, Toyota strongly recom-
mends that children be properly restrained and child-restraint systems
of all kinds are properly secured on the rear seats which are t he best
place for children.
For  more  details,  refer  to  “Fron t  passenger  occupant  classification
sensor” ( P. 82).
Your  Toyota  is  equipped  with  LATCH  lower  anchors  for  attachment  of  spe-
cially designed LATCH child-restraint systems on the rear seats. When using
these  anchors  to  secure  a  child-restraint  system,  refer  to  “Usi ng  LATCH
Lower Anchor” ( P. 61).
WARNING
■Use the correct size child-restraint system
For effective protection in vehicle accidents and sudden stops, a child must
be properly restrained using a seat belt or child-restraint sys tem depending
on age and size. If not, the child could be seriously injured o r even killed in
an accident.
■ Follow  the  manufacturer’s  instructions  and  always  keep  the  chil d-
restraint system buckled down
An  unsecured  child-restraint  system  is  dangerous.  In  a  sudden  s top  or  a
collision  it  could  move  causing  serious  injury  or  death  to  the  child  or  other
occupants.  Make  sure  any  child-restraint  system  is  properly  sec ured  in
place  according  to  the  child-restraint  system  manufacturer’s  in structions.
When not in use, remove it  from  the vehicle  or  fasten it  with  a seat belt,  or
attach  it  to  BOTH  LATCH  lower  anchors  for  LATCH  child-restraint   systems
and the corresponding tether anchor.
■ Always secure a child in a proper child-restraint system
Holding  a  child  in  your  arms  while  the  vehicle  is  moving  is  ext remely  dan-
gerous.  No  matter  how  strong  the  person  may  be,  he  or  she  canno t  hold
onto a child in a sudden stop or collision and it could result  in serious injury
or  death  to  the  child  or  other  occupants.  Even  in  a  moderate  accident,  the
child may be exposed to air bag forces that could result in ser ious injury or
death to the child, or the child may be slammed into an adult,  causing injury
to both child and adult.

551-3. Child Restraint
1
Essential Safety Equipment
Push  the  child-restraint  system
firmly  into  the  vehicle  seat.  Be
sure  the  belt  retracts  as  snugly
as  possible.  A  clicking  noise
from  the  retractor  will  be  heard
during retraction if the system is
in  the  automatic  locking  mode.
If the belt does not lock the seat
down tight, repeat this step.
Inspect  this  function  before  each  use  of  the  child-restraint  system.  You
should  not  be  able  to  pull  the  shoulder  belt  out  of  the  retract or while the
system  is  in  the  automatic  locking  mode.  When  you  remove  the  ch ild-
restraint  system,  be  sure  the  belt  fully  retracts  to  return  the  system  to
emergency locking mode before occupants use the seat belts.
If your child-restraint system requires the use of a tether str ap, refer
to  the  manufacturer’s  instructions  to  hook  and  tighten  the  teth er
strap.
Follow  the  child-restraint  system  manufacturer’s  instructions  carefully.  If  you
are not sure whether you have a LATCH system or tether, check i n the child-
restraint  system  manufacturer’s  instructions  and  follow  them  ac cordingly.
Depending  on  the  type  of  child-restraint  system,  it  may  use  LAT CH  system
instead  of  seat  belts  or  if  the  belt  goes  across  the  child’s  chest,  may  recom-
mend against using automatic locking mode.

■Odometer
The  odometer  records  the  total  distance  the  vehicle  has  been
driven.
■Tr i p   m e t e r
The  trip  meter  can  record  the  to tal  distance  of  two  trips.  One is
recorded in trip meter A, and the other is recorded in trip met er B.
For instance, trip meter A can re cord the distance from the point of
origin, and trip meter B can record the distance from where the  fuel
tank is filled.
When  trip  meter  A  is  selected,  pressing  the  selector  again  with in
one second will change to trip meter B mode.
When  trip  meter A  is  selected, TRIP A  will  be  displayed.  When  t rip
meter B is selected, TRI P B will be displayed.
The  trip  meter  records  the  total  distance  the  vehicle  is  driven  until
the meter is again reset. Return it to “0.0” by depressing and  hold-
ing the selector for one second or more. Use this meter to meas ure
trip distances and to com pute fuel consumption.
■Odometer, Trip Meter and Trip Meter Selector
When the ignition is switched to ACC or off, the odometer or trip meters can-
not be displayed, however, pressing the selector can inadverten tly switch the
trip meters or reset them duri ng an approximate ten-minute peri od in the fol-
lowing cases:
● After the ignition is switched to off from ON.
● After the driver’s door is opened.
■ Trip meter
●If TRIP A is reset using the trip meter when the function which  synchronizes
(resets) the fuel economy monitor and the trip meter (TRIP A) i s on, the fuel
economy data resets in conjunction with TRIP A.
Refer to Fuel Economy Monitor on P. 221.
● Only the trip meters record tenths of miles (kilometers).
● The trip record will be erased when:
• The  power  supply  is  interrupted  (blown  fuse  or  the  battery  is  discon-
nected).
• The vehicle is driven over 9999.9 mile (km).
