Points to remember
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 automo -
bile accidents and sudden stops, a child must be properly restrained,
using a seat belt or child restraint
system which is corre ctly installed. For installation details, refer to the
operation manual enclosed with the
child restraint system. General installation instructions are pro -
vided in this manual.
●Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that
conforms to the weight and size of
the child, installed on the rear seat. According 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 substitute for a
child restraint system. In an acci-
dent, the child can be crushed against the windshield or between
the holder and the interior of the
vehicle.
■Handling the child restraint sys -
tem
If the child restra int system is not
properly fixed in place, the 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 visible. In such cases, do not reuse the restraint system.
●Depending on the child restraint system, installation may be difficult
or impossible. In those cases,
check whether the child restraint system is suitable f or installment in
the vehicle ( →P.54). Be sure to
install and observe the usage rules after carefully reading the child
restraint system fixing method in
this manual, as we ll as the opera- tion manual enclosed with the child
restraint system.
●Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat even if
it is not in use. Do not store the
child restraint syst em unsecured in the passenger compartment.

Press the buckle release button
and fully retract the seat belt.
When releasing the buckle, the child
restraint system may spring up due to
the rebound of the seat cushion.

Since the seat belt automatically reels
itself, slowly return it to the stowing
position.
■When installing a child restraint
system
You may need a locking clip to install the child restraint s ystem. Follow the
instructions provided by the manufac -
turer of the system. If your child restraint system does not provide a locking clip,
you can purchase the following item
from any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli -
able repairer: Locking clip for child

ages are attached to the seats.)
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint
system
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Do not allow children to play with
the seat belt. I f the seat belt
becomes twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or
other serious injuries that could
result in death. If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened,
scissors should be used to cut the
belt.
●Ensure that the bel t and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is
not twisted.
●Shake the child restraint system left
and right, and forward and back -
ward to ensure that it has been securely installed.
●After securing a ch ild restraint sys- tem, never adjust the seat.
●When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder
belt is positioned a cross 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 chil d’s shoulder.
●Follow all installation instructions
provided by the child restraint sys - tem manufacturer.
