WARNING
■Front passenger occupant classification system precautions
● Do not recline the front passenger seatback so far that it touches a rear
seat. This may cause “OFF” of the “PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator to
be illuminated, which indicates that the SRS airbags for the front passen-
ger will not activate in the event of a severe accident. If the seatback
touches the rear seat, return the seatback to a position where it does not
touch the rear seat. Keep the front passenger seatback as upright as pos-
sible when the vehicle is moving. Reclining the seatback excessively may
lessen the effectiveness of the seat belt system.
● If an adult sits in the front passenger seat, “ON” of the “PASSENGER AIR
BAG” indicator is illuminated. If “OFF ” of the “PASSENGER AIR BAG” indi-
cator is illuminated, ask the passenger to sit up straight, well back in the
seat, feet on the floor, and with the seat belt worn correctly. If “OFF” of the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator still re mains illuminated, either ask the
passenger to move to the rear seat, or if that is not possible, move the
front passenger seat fully rearward.
● When it is unavoidable to install a child restraint system on the front pas-
senger seat, install the child restraint system on the front passenger seat
in the proper order. ( P. 65)
● Do not modify or remove the front seats.
● Do not kick the front passenger seat or subject it to severe impact. Other-
wise, the SRS warning light may come on to indicate a malfunction of the
front passenger occupant classification system. In this case, contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer immediately.
● Child restraint systems installed on the rear seat should not contact the
front seatbacks.
● Do not use a seat accessory, such as a cushion and seat cover, that cov-
ers the seat cushion surface.
● Do not modify or replace the upholstery of the front seat.
● When it is unavoidable to install a rear-facing child restraint system on the
front passenger seat, do not release the seat belt while the vehicle is mov-
ing. Doing so may cause the airbag system to be on.

WARNING
■ When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install the child restraint system in a rear seat. In
the event that the rear seat cannot be used, the front seat can be used as
long as the airbag manual on-off system is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag
deployment (inflation) may cause serious injury or even death.
■ When a child restraint system is not installed on the front passenger
seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off system is set to “ON”.
If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident, which
may result in serious injury or even death.

WARNING
■When using a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
● Vehicles with front passenger occupant classification system: Never use a
rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat when “ON”
of the “PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator is illuminated. ( P. 57)
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.
● Vehicles without front passenger
occupant classification system or airbag
manual on-off switch: Never use a rear-
facing child restraint system on the front
passenger seat.
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.
● Vehicles with airbag manual on-off
switch: Never use a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat when the airbag manual on-off
switch is on. ( P. 62)
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.
● On some models: There is a label(s) on
the passenger 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. The label type B
includes information written in the
language of your country.

WARNING
■When using a child restraint system
● When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be
kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s
shoulder.
● Use child restraint system suitable to the age and size of the child and
install it to the rear seat.
● Vehicles with SRS front passenger air-
bag: Only put a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front seat when
unavoidable. When installing a forward-
facing child restraint on the front pas-
senger seat, move the seat as far back
as possible. Failing to do so may result
in death or serious injury if the airbags
deploy (inflate).
● Vehicles with SRS side and curtain
shield airbags: Do not allow the child to
lean his/her head or any part of his/her
body against the door or the area of the
seat, front or rear pi llars, or roof side
rails from which the SRS side airbags or
SRS curtain shield airbags deploy even
if the child is seated in the child restraint
system. It is dangerous if the SRS side
airbags and curtain shield airbags
inflate, and the impact could cause
death or serious injury to the child.
● Double-cab models: If the driver’s seat
interferes with the child restraint system
and prevents it from being attached cor-
rectly, attach the child restraint system
to the right-hand rear seat (left-hand
drive vehicles) or the left-hand rear seat
(right-hand drive vehicles). ( P. 8 0 , 8 8 )

Double-cab models: When securing some types of child restraint sys-
tems 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 effectiveness. Be sure your seat belt fits snugly
across your shoulder and low on your hips. If it does not, or if it inter-
feres with the child restraint, move to a different position. Failure to do
so may result in death or serious injury.
