Riding with children
●It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid acci-
dental contact wit h the shift lever, wiper switch etc.
● Use the rear door child-protector lock or the window lock switc h to
avoid children opening the door while driving or operating the
power window accidentally. ( P. 121, 169)
● Do not let small children operate equipment which may catch or
pinch body parts, such as the power window, hood, back door,
seats etc.
Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehi -
cle.
Use a child restraint system app ropriate for the child, until the
child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat
belt.
WARNING
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to
have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by p laying with
the windows, the moon roof or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat
build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to
children.

WARNING
■When a child is riding
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
● For effective protection in automobile accidents and sudden sto ps, a child
must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restrai nt system
which is correctly installed. For installation details, refer t o the operation
manual enclosed with the child restraint system. General instal lation
instructions are provided in this manual.
● Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint syste m that con-
forms to the weight and size of the child, installed on the rea r seat. Accord-
ing 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 substit ute for a
child restraint system. In an accident, the child can be crushed against the
windshield or between the holder and the interior of the vehicle.
■ Handling the child restraint system
If the child restraint system is not properly fixed in place, t he 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 visi-
ble. In such cases, do not reuse the restraint system.
● Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided
with the child restraint system manufacturer and that the syste m is prop-
erly secured.
● Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat ev en if it is
not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the pas-
senger 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 system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
● Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger
seat even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illuminated. In the event
of an accident, the force of the rapid inflation of the front p assenger airbag
can cause death or serious injury to the child if the rear-facing child
restraint system is installed on the front passenger seat.
● A forward-facing child restraint system may be installed on the front pas-
senger seat only when it is unavoidable. A child restraint system that
requires a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger seat
since there is no top tether strap anchor for the front passenger seat.
● When a booster seat is installed, always ensure that the should er 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.
● A forward-facing child restraint system
may be installed on the front passenger
seat only when it is unavoidable. When
installing a forward-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger seat,
move the seat as far back as possible,
even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated.
If the head restraint interferes with the
child restraint system installation and
the head restraint can be removed,
remove the head restraint.
● 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,
side and rear pillars, 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.

WARNING
■When using a child restraint system
● Use a child restraint system suitable to the age and size of the child and
install it to the rear seat.
● Vehicles with third seats: Child restraint system installed on the third seat
should not contact the second seatbacks.
● When installing a child restraint system on the second center s eat, adjust
both seat cushions to the same position and align both seatback s at the
same angle. The seatbacks must be adjusted to the same angle. O ther-
wise, the child restraint system cannot be securely restrained and this may
cause death or serious injuries in the event of sudden braking, sudden
swerving or an accident.
● If the driver’s seat interferes with the
child restraint system and prevents it
from being attached correctly, attach the
child restraint system to the right-hand
rear seat.
● Adjust the front passenger seat so that
it does not interfere with the child
restraint system.

661-2. Child safety

A child restraint system for a small child or baby must itself be prop-
erly restrained on the seat with the lap portion of the lap/shoulder belt.

restraint lock function belt)
Install the child restraint system in accordance to the operati on
manual enclosed with the child restraint system.
■Rear-facing — Infant seat/convertible seat
