ger.(B) CONVERTIBLE SEAT INSTALLATION
A convertible seat must be used in for-
wardfacing or rearfacing position de-
pending on the age and size of the
child. When installing, follow the
manufacturer ’s instructions about the
applicable age and size of the child as
well as directions for installing the con-
vertible seat. Install the convertible seat on the front
passenger seat only when it is unavoid-
able. Your vehicle is equipped with a front
passenger occupant classification system.
In order to activate the occupant classifi-
cation system correctly, install the for-
ward
−facing child restraint system on the
front passenger seat in the following or-
der:
1. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” posi- tion.
2. Move the front passenger seat to the rearward position.
3. Put the convertible seat on the front passenger seat without putting your
weight on the front passenger seat.
4. Insert the seat belt tab into the seat belt buckle.
5. Fully extend the shoulder belt to put it in the lock mode. When the belt is
then retracted even slightly, it cannot
be extended. To hold the seat securely,
make sure the belt is in the lock mode
before letting the belt retract.

92
6. While pressing the convertible seatfirmly against the seat cushion and
seatback, let the shoulder belt retract
as far as it will go to hold the convert-
ible seat securely.
CAUTION
Push and pull the child restraint sys-
tem in different directions to be sure
it is secure. Follow all the installation
instructions provided by its manufac-
turer.
7. Put a child on the convertible seat andsecure the child, complying with the
instructions provided by the child re-
straint system manufacturer. The occupant classification indicator light
should indicate “OFF” when the ignition
key is “ON” and the child is in the child
restraint system after following these pro-
cedures. The “OFF” indicator indicates the
SRS front passenger airbag and side air-
bag on the passenger side will not deploy.
If the indicator light indicates “ON”, re-
move the child restraint system and rein-
stall it with the ignition key in the “ACC”
or “LOCK” position. If the indicator light
still indicates “ON” when the ignition key
is turned to the “ON” position, then the
SRS front passenger airbag and side air-
bag on the passenger side may deploy in
an accident. Do not drive the vehicle in
this condition. Remove the child restraint
system and contact your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Never install a rearfacing child re-
straint system on the front passen-
ger seat. A forwardfacing child re-
straint system should only be
installed on the front passenger
seat when unavoidable. If you must
install the child restraint system on
the front passenger seat, put the
seat in its most rearward position,
and install the forwardfacing child
restraint system in the proper or-
der. Otherwise, the front passenger
occupant classification system can
not detect the presence of the child
restraint system and the front pas-
senger airbag and side airbag on
the front passenger seat could
deploy.
