Seat Belt Pretensioner and Load Limiting
Systems
◆Pretensioners
When a collision is detected, t he pretensioners deploy simulta-
neously with the air bags.
The pretensioners deploy simultaneously with the air bags when a
roll-over is also detected.
For deployment details, refer to the SRS Air Bag Deployment Crite-
ria ( P. 74).
The front seat belt retractors remove slack quickly as the air bags
are expanding. Any time the air b ags and seat belt pretensioners
have fired they must be replaced.
A system malfunction or operation conditions are indicated by a
warning.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on P. 156.
Refer to Air Bag/Front Seat Belt Pretensioner System Warning
Beep on P. 523.
In addition, the pretensioner syst em for the front passenger, like the
front and side passenger air bag, is designed to only deploy when
the front passenger occupant clas sification sensor detects a pas-
senger sitting on the front passenger’s seat.
For details, refer to the front pass enger occupant classification sen-
sor ( P. 7 8 ) .
For optimum protection, the driver and front passenger seat
belts are equipped with pretensi oner and load limiting systems.
For both these systems to work properly you must wear the seat
belt properly.

Essential Safety Equipment
Seat Belt Extender
This extender will be only for you and for the pa rticular vehicle and
seat. Even if it plugs into other seat belts, it may not hold in the critical
moment of a crash.
When ordering an extender, only order one that provides the neces-
sary additional length to fa sten the seat belt properly.
Please contact your Scion Dealer for more information.
When not in use, remove the seat belt extender and store it in the vehicle. If
the seat belt extender is left connected, the seat belt extender might get dam-
aged as it will not retract with the rest of the seat belt and can easily fall out of
the door when not in use and be damaged. In addition, the seat belt warning
light will not illuminate and function properly.
If your seat belt is not long enough, even when fully extended, a
seat belt extender may be available to you at no charge from
your Scion Dealer.
WARNING
■ Do not use a seat belt ext ender unless it is necessary
Using a seat belt extender when not necessary is dangerous. The seat belt
will be too long and not fit properly. In an accident, the seat belt will not pro-
vide adequate protection and you could be seriously injured. Only use the
extender when it is required to fasten the seat belt properly.
■ Do not use an improper extender
Using a seat belt extender that is for another person or a different vehicle or
seat is dangerous. The seat belt will not provide adequate protection and
the user could be seriously injured in an accident. Only use the extende\
r
provided for you and for the particular vehicle and seat. NEVER use the
extender in a different vehicle or seat. If you sell your Scion, do not leave
your seat belt extender in the vehicle. It could be used accidentally by the
new owner of the vehicle. After removing the seat belt extender, discard it.
Never use the seat belt extender in any other vehicle you may own in the
future.

431-3. Child Restraint

Essential Safety Equipment
WARNING
■Never use a rear-facing child-restra int system in the front seat with an
air bag that could deploy
■ Do not install a front-facing child- restraint system on the front passen-
ger seat unless it is unavoidable
Rear-facing child-restraint systems on
the front seat are particularly dangerous
even though you may feel assured that a
front passenger air bag will not deploy
based on the fact that the front passen-
ger air bag deactivation indicator light
illuminates. The child-restraint system
can be hit by a deploying air bag and
moved violently backward resulting in
serious injury or death to the child.
Vehicles with a front passenger air bag
have a warning label attached as shown
below.
The warning label reminds you not to put
a rear-facing child-restraint system on
the front passenger seat at any time.
In a collision, the force of a deploying air
bag could cause serious injury or death
to the child. If installing a front-facing
child-restraint system on the front pas-
senger seat is unavoidable, move the
front passenger seat as far back as pos-
sible.

1-3. Child Restraint
WARNING
■Seating a child in a child-restra int system on the front passenger seat
is dangerous under certain conditions
Your vehicle is equipped with front passenger occupant classification sen-
sor. Even with the front passenger occupant classification sensor, if you
must use the front passenger seat to seat a child, using a child-restraint
system on the front passenger seat under the following conditions
increases the danger of the front passenger air bag deploying and could
result in serious injury or death to the child.
● The front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light does not illuminate
when seating a child in the child-restraint system.
● Luggage or other items are placed on the seat with the child in the child-
restraint system.
● A rear passenger or luggage pushing or pulling down on the front passen-
ger seatback.
● Luggage or other items are placed on the seatback or hung on the head
restraint.
● The seat is washed.
● Liquids are spilled on the seat.
● The front passenger seat is moved backward, pushing into luggage or
other items placed behind it.
● The front passenger seatback contacts the rear seat.
● Luggage or other items are placed between the front passenger seat and
driver seat.
● An electric device is put on the front passenger’s seat.
● An additional electrical device, such as a seat warmer is installed to the
surface of the front passenger seat.
The designated positions with seat belts on the rear seats are the safest
places for children. Always use seat belts and child restraints.

1-3. Child Restraint
WARNING
■Always move the front passenger seat as far back as possible if install-
ing a front-facing ch ild-restraint system on it is unavoidable
As your vehicle has front air bags and doubly so because your vehicle has
side air bags, a front-facing child-restraint system should be put on the front
passenger seat only when it is unavoidable.
Even if the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates,
always move the seat as far back as possible, because the force of a
deploying air bag could cause serious injury or death to the child.
■ Never use a rear-facing child-restra int system in the front seat with an
air bag that could deploy
Rear-facing child-restraint systems on the front seat are particularly danger-
ous.
Even in a moderate collision, the child-restraint system can be hit by a
deploying air bag and moved violently backward resulting in serious injury
or death to the child. Even though you may feel assured that the front pas-
senger air bag will not deploy based on the fact that the front passenger air
bag deactivation indicator light illuminates, you should not use a rear-facing
child-restraint system in the front seat.
■ Do not allow a child or anyone to lean over or against the side window
of a vehicle with side and curtain air bags
It is dangerous to allow anyone to lean over or against the side window, the
area of the front passenger seat, the front and rear window pillars and the
roof edge along both sides from which the side and curtain air bags deploy,
even if a child-restraint system is used. The impact of inflation from a side or
curtain air bag could cause serious injury or death to an out of position ch\
ild.
Furthermore, leaning over or against t he front door could block the side and
curtain air bags and eliminate the adv antages of supplemental protection.
With the front air bag and the additional side air bag that comes out of the
front seat, the rear seat is always a better location for children. Take special
care not to allow a child to lean over or against the side window, even if the
child is seated in a child-restraint system.

571-3. Child Restraint

Essential Safety Equipment
Your Scion is equipped with LATCH lower anchors for attachment of
specially designed LATCH child-restraint systems in the rear seats.
Both anchors must be used, otherwise the seat will bounce around
and put the child in danger. Most LATCH child-restraint systems must
also be used in conjunction with a te ther to be effective. If they have a
tether you must use it to better assure your child’s safety.
WARNING
■ Do not seat a child in a child-rest raint system on the front passenger
seat if the front passenger air bag d eactivation indicator light does not
illuminate
While it is always better to install any child-restraint system on the rear seat,
it is imperative that a child-restraint system ONLY be used on the front pas-
senger seat if the deactivation indicator light illuminates when the child is
seated in the child-restraint system ( P. 78). Seating a child in a child-
restraint system installed on the front passenger seat with the front passen-
ger air bag deactivation indicator light not illuminated is dangerous. If this
indicator light does not illuminate, this means that the front passenger front
and side air bags, and seat belt pretensi oner are ready for deployment. If an
accident were to deploy an air bag, a child in a child-restraint system sitting
in the front passenger seat could be seriously injured or killed. If the indica-
tor light does not illuminate after seating a child in a child-restraint system
on the front passenger seat, seat a child in a child-restraint system on the
rear seat and consult your Scion dealer as soon as possible.
Using LATCH Lower Anchor
WARNING
■ Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the use of the child-restraint
system
An unsecured child-restraint system is dangerous. In a sudden stop or a
collision it could move causing serious injury or death to the child or other
occupants. Make sure the child-restraint system is properly secured in place
according to the child-restraint system manufacturer’s instructions.
