7. Sit the child on the child seat. Place
a shoulder belt over each shoulder.
Insert the tabs into the buckle.
CAUTION

When the built±in child restraint is
in use, do not use the adult lap and
shoulder belt instead of the built±in
child restraint seat belt as it can
cause severe injury to the child in
a sudden stop or crash.

After inserting the tabs, make sure
the tabs and buckle are locked and
that the shoulder belts and buckle
strap are not twisted.

Do not insert coins, clips, etc. in
the buckle as this may prevent you
from properly latching the tabs and
buckle.

If the seat belt does not function
normally, it cannot protect your
child from injury. Contact your
Toyota dealer immediately. Do not
use the built±in child restraint until
the seat belt is fixed.

9. Fasten the shoulder belt clip.
The purpose of the clip is to keep the
shoulder belts positioned correctly on the
shoulders.
CAUTION
An unfastened shoulder belt clip will
not help keep the belts on the child's
shoulders. In a sudden stop or crash,
the child may go too far forward and
be seriously injured. Make sure the
belt clip is fastened at all times.
10. Pull the seat belt adjustment strap
(gray tab) firmly until the shoulder
belts are snugly adjusted around the
child's shoulders.
You should not be able to put more than
two fingers between a shoulder belt and
the child's chest.
After adjusting the shoulder belt tightness,
move the shoulder belt clip 5 to 8 cm (2
to 3 in.) below the child's chin. On each
belt, the shoulder part should be centered
on the child's shoulder. The belts should
be away from the child's face and neck,
but not falling off the child's shoulders.11. To release the child from the seat
belts, separate the shoulder belts
then press the buckle release button.
Move both belts off the child's shoulders.
