CONTROLS
The most basic occupant protection
device is the seat belt. The airbags
are designed to supplement the
seat belts, not be used in place of
them. Wearing the seat belt cor-
rectly ensures that the occupants
are securely held in the seats and
helps prevent them from contacting
interior parts or being thrown from the vehicle in a collision. Therefore,
it is necessary for all occupants to
wear their seat belt. If a seat belt is
worn improperly, its effectiveness
as an occupant protection device
will be severely reduced. Pay atten-
tion to the following to ensure the
correct driving posture and use of
the seat belts.
Position the head restraint so that the center of it is at the same height
as the top of your ears
Make sure that the seat belt is not twisted
Adjust the seat so that your arms bend slightly at the elbow when grip-
ping the upper part of the steering wheel
Make sure that the seat belt is snug and not loose at any point
Position the lap belt as low as possible over the hips

WARNING
Do not recline the seatback exces-
sively while driving.
If the seatback is reclined excessively,
the seat belt will be completely inef-
fectual as an occupant protection
device in the case of sudden braking
or a collision. Also, in the event of a
collision, the lap belt may slide past
the hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen, or your neck
may contact the shoulder belt,
increasing the risk of death or serious
injury.
WARNING
Make sure that all passengers wear
their seat belt correctly.
Use of seat belts may be mandatory
under local laws and regulations. If a
seat belt is not worn properly, an
occupant may contact interior parts or
be thrown from the vehicle in the case
of sudden braking or a collision, pos-
sibly resulting in death or serious
injury. Also, if an occupant has an
incorrect riding posture, the airbags
will be ineffectual as occupant protec-
tion devices and may actually cause
injuries when they deploy.
WARNING
Correct use of the seat belts when
pregnant:
Pregnant women must wear a seat
belt. Consult your physician for advice
on correct way to wear a seat belt.
Position the lap belt as low as possi-
ble over the hips and the shoulder
belt completely over the shoulder,
passing the center of the chest, so
that the seat belt does not apply any
pressure to the abdomen.

WARNING
The seat belts are designed to protect
persons of average adult height and
weight. A child which is 150 cm or
shorter should be sat in an appropri-
ately sized child restraint system,
such as a Toyota genuine child
restraint system. Do not allow a child
to be unrestrained in the vehicle while
it is moving, as doing so is extremely
dangerous.
WARNING
Never leave a child unattended in the
vehicle.
When parking the vehicle, turn the
engine switch off, exit the vehicle with
the child and lock the doors. Even if it
is just for a short time, leaving a child
in the vehicle can be extremely dan-
gerous for the following reasons:
●When the vehicle is parked under
direct sunlight, the temperature
inside the vehicle can increase to
over 50°C, even in winter. In this sit-
uation, occupants may suffer from
dehydration or heatstroke.
●If a switch is operated accidentally,
it may lead to unexpected injuries.
●Do not allow a child to open and
close the doors. When closing a
door, be careful so that the child’s
hands and feet to not get caught in
the door.
●Do not allow a child to put their
head or limbs out of the door win-
dow and be sure that they are clear
of the window before operating the
power window switch.
