Do not attach a cup holder or any
other device or object on or around
the door. When the side airbag in-
flates, the cup holder or any other
device or object will be thrown with
great force or the side airbag may
not activate correctly, resulting in
death or serious injury. Likewise,
the driver and front passenger
should not hold objects in their
arms or on their knees.
Do not use seat accessories which
cover the parts where the side air-
bags inflate. Such accessories may
prevent the side airbags from acti-
vating correctly, causing death or
serious injury.
Do not modify or replace the seats
or upholstery of front seats with
side airbags. Such changes may
disable the system or cause the
side airbags to inflate accidentally,
resulting in death or serious injury.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or serious injury.
Consult your Toyota dealer about any
repairs and modifications.
NOTICE
Do not perform any of the following
changes without consulting your
Toyota dealer. Such changes can
interfere with proper operation of the
SRS side airbag system in some
cases.
 Installation of electronic devices
such as a mobile twoway radio,
cassette tape player or compact
disc player
 Modification of the suspension sys-
tem
 Modification of the side structure of
the passenger compartment
 Repairs made on or near the con-
sole or front seat

This SRS side airbag system has a
service reminder indicator to inform the
driver of operating problems. If either of
the following conditions occurs, this
indicates a malfunction of the airbags.
Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible to service the vehicle.
The light does not come on when the
ignition key is turned to the “ACC” or
“ON” position, or the light remains on.
The light comes on or flashes while
driving.
In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible:
The SRS side airbags have been in-
flated.
The portion of the doors (shaded in the
illustration) was involved in an accident
that was not severe enough to cause
the SRS side airbags to inflate.
The surface of the seats with the side
airbag (shaded in the illustration) is
scratched, cracked, or otherwise dam-
aged.
NOTICE
Do not disconnect the battery cables
before contacting your Toyota dealer.

Toyota strongly urges the use of child
restraint systems for children small
enough to use them.
The laws of all 50 states in the U.S.A.
and Canada now require the use of a
child restraint system.
Your vehicle conforms to SAE J1819.
If a child is too large for a child restraint
system, the child should sit in the rear
seat and must be restrained using the
vehicle’s seat belt. See “Seat belts” for
details.CAUTION
For effective protection in automo-
bile accidents and sudden stops, a
child must be properly restrained,
using a seat belt or child restraint
system depending on the age and
size of the child. Holding a child in
your arms is not a substitute for a
child restraint system. In an acci-
dent, the child can be crushed
against the windshield, or between
you and the vehicle’s interior.
Toyota strongly urges use of a
proper child restraint system which
conforms to the size of the child,
installed on the rear seat. Accord-
ing to accident statistics, the child
is safer when properly restrained in
the rear seat than in the front seat.
Never install a rearfacing child re-
straint system on the front seat. In
the event of an accident, the force
of the rapid inflation of the airbag
can cause death or serious injury if
a rearfacing child restraint system
is installed on the front seat.
Unless it is unavoidable, do not
install a child restraint system on
the front seat.
A forwardfacing child restraint sys-
tem should be allowed to be
installed on the front passenger
seat only when it is unavoidable.
Always move the seat as far back
as possible, because the force of
the deploying front passenger air-
bag could cause death or serious
injury to the child.
On vehicles with side airbags, do
not allow the child to lean against
the front door or around the front
door even if the child is seated in
the child restraint system. It is dan-
gerous if the side airbags inflate,
because the impact could cause
death or serious injury to the child.
Make sure that you have complied
with all installation instructions pro-
vided by the child restraint
manufacturer and that the system is
properly secured.

A child restraint system for a small
child or baby must itself be properly
restrained on the seat with either the
lap belt or the lap portion of the lap/
shoulder belt. You must carefully con-
sult the manufacturer ’s instructions
which accompany the child restraint
system.
To provide proper restraint, use a child
restraint system following the manufactur-
er ’s instructions about the appropriate age
and size of the child for the child restraint
system.
Install the child restraint system correctly
following the instructions provided by its
manufacturer of the system. General di-
rections are also provided under the fol-
lowing illustrations.
The child restraint system should be
installed on the rear seat if your vehicle
is equipped with rear seats. According to
accident statistics, the child is safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than
in the front seat.CAUTION
Never install a rearfacing child re-
straint system on the front seat. In
the event of an accident, the force
of the rapid inflation of the airbag
can cause death or serious injury if
a rearfacing child restraint system
is installed on the front seat.
Unless it is unavoidable, do not
install a child restraint system on
the front seat.
A forwardfacing child restraint sys-
tem should be allowed to be
installed on the front passenger
seat only when it is unavoidable.
Always move the seat as far back
as possible, because the force of
the deploying front passenger air-
bag could cause death or serious
injury to the child.
On vehicles with side airbags, do
not allow the child to lean against
the front door or around the front
door even if the child is seated in
the child restraint system. It is dan-
gerous if the side airbags inflate,
because the impact could cause
death or serious injury to the child.
After installing the child restraint
system, make sure it is secured in
place following the manufacturer ’s
instructions. If it is not restrained
securely, it may cause death or se-
rious injury to the child in the
event of a sudden stop or accident.
When not using the child restraint system,
keep it secured with the seat belt or place
it somewhere other than the passenger
compartment. This will prevent it from in-
juring passengers in the event of a sud-
den stop or accident.

This child restraint is designed for use
only by children who weigh between 10
and 18 kg (22.1 and 39.5 lb.) and whose
height is between 85 and 101 cm (33.5
and 40.0 in.).
The child should be at least one year
old and must be capable of sitting up-
right alone and whose shoulder height
is at or below the maximum shoulder
height indicator. See indicator label be-
hind child seat pad.
It is important to use a rearfacing
child restraint until the child is about
a year old. A rearfacing restraint gives
the child’s head, neck and body the
support they would need in a crash.
See “—Child restraint system” for more
information.
If your child’s shoulders are above the
indicator position, do not use the built
in child restraint. Your child should use
the adult lap and shoulder belt.
According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat.CAUTION
Make sure the child is securely re-
strained with the builtin child re-
straint. WARNING! Failure to follow
the manufacturer ’s instructions on the
use of this child restraint system can
result in your child striking the ve-
hicle’s interior during a sudden stop
or crash. Snugly adjust the belts pro-
vided with this child restraint around
your child.
When using the builtin child re-
straints, observe the following:
Use the belts of one child restraint
for only one child at a time. Do not
use the belts for two or more chil-
dren.
Be careful not to damage the belt
webbing or hardware. Take care that
they do not get caught or pinched
in the seatback.
Inspect the belt system periodically.
Check for cuts, fraying, and loose
parts. Damaged parts should be re-
placed. Do not disassemble or
modify the child restraint belt sys-
tem.
Keep the belts clean and dry. If
they need cleaning, use a mild soap
solution or lukewarm water. Never
use bleach, dye, or abrasive clean-
ers. They may severely weaken the
belts.
Replace the builtin child restraint
assembly if it has been used in a
severe impact. The entire assembly
should be replaced even if damage
is not obvious.
Do not use a separate child re-
straint system over the opened
builtin child restraint.
Do not use the adult lap and shoul-
der belt with the child restraint.

7. Sit the child on the child seat. Placea shoulder belt over each shoulder.
Insert the tabs into the buckle.
CAUTION
When the builtin child restraint is
in use, do not use the adult lap and
shoulder belt instead of the builtin
child restraint seat belt as it can
cause death or severe injury to the
child in a sudden stop or crash.
After inserting the tabs, make sure
the tabs and buckle are locked and
that the shoulder belts and buckle
strap are not twisted.
Do not insert coins, clips, etc. in
the buckle as this may prevent you
from properly latching the tabs and
buckle.
If the seat belt does not function
normally, it cannot protect your
child from injury. Contact your
Toyota dealer immediately. Do not
use the builtin child restraint until
the seat belt is fixed.
8. Fasten the shoulder belt clip.
The purpose of the clip is to keep the
shoulder belts positioned correctly on the
shoulders.

not keep the belts on the child’s
shoulders. In a sudden stop or crash,
the child may go too far forward and
be seriously injured. Make sure the
belt clip is fastened at all times.
