WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions
regarding the SRS airbags. Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
●The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts properly.
The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat belts.
●The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause
death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the air-bag.
Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.) of inflation, placing yourself 250
mm (10 in.) from your driver airbag provides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured
from the center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less than 250 mm (10 in.) away
now, you can change your driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the ped-als comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250
mm (10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, sim-ply by reclining the back of the seat
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm,
non-slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air-bag toward your chest instead of
your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as rec- ommended above, while still main-
taining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instrument panel controls.
●The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable
force, and can cause death or seri- ous injury especially if the front pas-senger is very close to the airbag.
The front passenger seat should be as far from the airbag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the
front passenger sits upright.
●Improperly seated and/or restrained
infants and children can be killed or seriously injured by a deploying air-bag. An infant or child who is too
small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint system. Toyota strongly
recommends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats of the vehicle and properly
restrained. The rear seats are safer for infants and children than the front passenger seat. ( P. 4 9 )

WARNING
●Do not sit on the edge of the seat or lean against the dashboard.
●Do not allow a child to stand in front of the SRS front passenger airbag
unit or sit on the knees of a front passenger.
●Do not allow the front seat occu-
pants to hold items on their knees.
●Do not lean against the door, the
roof side rail or the front, side and rear pillars.
●Do not allow anyone to kneel on the passenger seat toward the door or put their head or hands outside the
vehicle.
●Do not attach anything to or lean
anything against areas such as the dashboard or steering wheel pad.These items can become projec-
tiles when the SRS driver and front passenger airbags deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas such as a door, windshield, side window, front or rear pillar, roof side
rail and assist grip. (Except for the speed limit label P.532)
●Do not hang coat hangers or other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of these items could become pro-
jectiles and may cause death or serious injury, should the SRS cur-tain shield airbags deploy.

 Prioritize and observe the warn-
ings, as well as the laws and reg-
ulations 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 system
appropriate to the age and size
of the child.
 Note that not all child restraint
systems can fit in all vehicles.
Before using or purchasing a
child restraint system, check the
compatibility of the child restraint
system with seat positions.
Child restraint systems
Before installing a child
restraint system in the vehicle,
there are precautions that
need to be observed, different
types of child restraint sys-
tems, 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 sys-
tem to a rear seat. Be sure to
follow the installation method
that is in the operation manual
enclosed with the restraint
system.
 The use of a Toyota genuine
child restraint system is rec-
ommended, as it is safer to
use in this vehicle. Toyota gen-
uine child restraint systems
are made specifically for
Toyota vehicles. They can be
purchased at a Toyota dealer.

■When installing a child
restraint system to the front
passenger seat
For the safety of a child, install a
child restraint system to a rear seat.
When installing a child restraint
system to the front passenger seat
is unavoidable, adjust the seat as
follows and install the child restraint
system:
 Adjust the seatback angle to the
most upright position.
When installing a forward-facing child
seat, if there is a gap between the child
seat and the seatback, adjust the
seatback angle until good contact is
achieved.
 Move the front seat fully rear-
WARNING
●For effective protection in automo- bile accidents and sudden stops, a
child must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system which is correctly installed.
For installation details, refer to the operation manual enclosed with the child restraint system. General
installation instruction is provided in this manual.
●Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that conforms to the weight and size of
the child, installed on the rear seat. According to accident statistics, the child is safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.
●Holding a child in your or someone else’s arms is not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an acci-
dent, the child can be crushed against the windshield or between the holder and the interior of the
vehicle.
■Handling the child restraint sys-
tem
If the child restraint system is not properly fixed in place, the child or
other passengers may be seriously 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.
●Depending on the child restraint system, installation may be difficult or impossible. In those cases,
check whether the child restraint system is suitable for installment in the vehicle. ( P.53) Be sure to
install and observe the usage rules after carefully reading the child restraint system fixing method in
this manual, as well as the opera- tion manual enclosed with the child restraint system.
●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 compartment.

WARNING
■When using a child restraint sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Never use a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front pas- senger seat when the airbag man-ual on-off switch is on. ( P. 4 7 )
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 passen- ger side sun visor, indicating it is forbidden to attach a rear-facing
child restraint system to the front passenger seat.Details of the label(s) are shown in
the illustration below.

■Recommended child restraint systems information
*: Be sure to attach the seat belt through the SecureGuard.
The child restraint systems mentioned in the table may not be available out-
side the EU countries and United Kingdom.
When securing some types of child
restraint systems in rear seat, 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 effec-
tiveness. 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 different position. Failure
to do so may result in death or seri-
ous injury.
 When installing a child restraint
in the rear seats, adjust the front
seat so that it does not interfere
with the child or child restraint
system.
 When installing a child seat with
support base, if the child seat
interferes with the seatback
when latching it into the support
base, adjust the seatback rear-
ward until there is no interfer-
ence.
 If the seat belt shoulder anchor is
ahead of the child seat belt
guide, move the seat cushion
forward.
