For safety and security
Adjust the angle of the seat-
back so that you are sitting 
straight up and so that you do 
not have to lean forward to 
steer. ( P.115)
Adjust the seat so that you 
can depress the pedals fully 
and so that your arms bend 
slightly at the elbow when 
gripping the steering wheel. 
( P.115)
Lock the head restraint in 
place with the center of the 
head restraint closest to the 
top of your ears. ( P.115)
Wear the seat belt correctly. 
( P.25)
WARNING
■Before driving
●Check that the floor mat is 
securely fixed in the correct 
place with all the provided 
retaining hooks (c lips). Be espe-
cially careful to perform this 
check after cleaning the floor.
●With the engine stopped and 
the shift lever in P (continuously 
variable transmission) or N 
(manual transmission), fully 
depress each pedal to the floor 
to make sure it does not inter-
fere with the floor mat.
For safe driving
For safe driving, adjust the 
seat and mirror to an appro-
priate position before driv-
ing.

241-1. For safe use
COROLLA H/B_U
Make sure that all occupants are 
wearing their seat belts before 
driving the vehicle. (P.25)
Use a child restraint system 
appropriate for the child until the  child becomes large enough to 
properly wear the vehicle’s seat 
belt. (
P.45)
Make sure that you can see 
backward clearly by adjusting 
the inside and outside rear view 
mirrors properly. ( P.122, 123)
WARNING
■For safe driving
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may result in 
death or serious injury.
●Do not adjust the position of the 
driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver 
to lose control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between 
the driver or passenger and the 
seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct 
posture from being achieved, 
and reduce the effectiveness of 
the seat belt and head restraint.
●Do not place anything under the 
front seats.
Objects placed under the front 
seats may become jammed in 
the seat tracks and stop the 
seat from locking in place. This 
may lead to an accident and the 
adjustment mechanism may 
also be damaged.
●Always observe the legal speed 
limit when driving on public 
roads.
●When driving over long dis-
tances, take regular breaks 
before you start to feel tired.
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy 
while driving, do not force your-
self to continue driving and take 
a break immediately.

belts

COROLLA H/B_U
Extend the shoulder belt so 
that it comes fully over the 
shoulder, but does not come 
into contact with the neck or 
slide off the shoulder. 
Position the lap belt as low as 
possible over the hips.
 Adjust the position of the 
seatback. Sit up straight and 
well back in the seat.
 Do not twist the seat belt.
■Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle were 
principally designed for persons of 
adult size.
●Use a child restraint system 
appropriate for the child, until the 
child becomes large enough to 
properly wear the vehicle’s seat 
belt. ( P. 4 5 )
●When the child becomes large 
enough to properly wear the vehi-
cle’s seat belt, follow the instruc-
tions regarding seat belt usage. 
( P. 2 5 )
■Seat belt extender
If your seat belts cannot be fastened 
securely because they are not long 
enough, a personalized seat belt 
extender is available from your Toy-
ota dealer free of charge.
WARNING
●Inspect the seat belt system 
periodically. Check for cuts, 
fraying, and loose parts. Do not 
use a damaged seat belt until it 
is replaced. Damaged seat belts 
cannot protect an occupant 
from death or serious injury.
●Ensure that the belt and plate 
are locked and the belt is not 
twisted.
If the seat belt does not function 
correctly, immediately contact 
your Toyota dealer.
●Replace the seat assembly, 
including the belts, if your vehi-
cle has been involved in a seri-
ous accident, even if there is no 
obvious damage.
●Do not attempt to install, 
remove, modify, disassemble or 
dispose of the seat belts. Have 
any necessary repairs carried 
out by your Toyota dealer. Inap-
propriate handling may lead to 
incorrect operation.
Correct use of the seat 
belts
WARNING

For safety and security
1 To fasten the seat belt, push 
the plate into the buckle until 
a click sound is heard.
2 To release the seat belt, 
press the release button  .
■Emergency locking retractor 
(ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during 
a sudden stop or on impact. It may 
also lock if you lean forward too 
quickly. A slow, easy motion will 
allow the belt to extend so that you 
can move around fully.
■Automatic locking retractor 
(ALR)
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is 
completely extended and then 
retracted even slightly, the belt is 
locked in that position and cannot 
be extended. This feature is used to 
hold the child restraint system 
(CRS) firmly. To free the belt again, 
fully retract the belt and then pull the 
belt out once more. ( P. 4 5 )
1 Push the seat belt shoulder 
anchor down while pressing 
the release button  .
2 Push the seat belt shoulder 
anchor up while pressing the 
release button  .
Move the height adjuster up and 
down as needed until you hear a 
click.
WARNING
●Do not use the seat belt 
extender when installing a child 
restraint system because the 
belt will not securely hold the 
child restraint system, increas-
ing the risk of death or serious 
injury in the event of an acci-
dent.
●The personalized extender may 
not be safe on another vehicle, 
when used by another person, 
or at a different seating position 
other than the one originally 
intended.
NOTICE
■When using a seat belt 
extender
When releasing the seat belt, 
press on the buckle release but-
ton on the extender, not on the 
seat belt.
This helps prevent damage to the 
vehicle interior and the extender 
itself.
