CAUTION
■Seat belt damage and wear
●Ensure that the belt and tab are locked and the belt is not twisted.
If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact your Toyota
dealer.
● Replace the seat assembly, including the belts, if your vehicle has been
involved in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage.
● Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the
seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Toyota dealer.
Inappropriate handling of the pretensioner may prevent it from operating
properly resulting in death or serious injury.
■ Before using a front seat be lt (Regular Cab models)
Make sure the seat belt hanger is secured in the raised position before you
fasten the seat belt.
■ Using a seat belt extender
●Do not wear the seat belt extender if you can fasten the seat belt without
the extender.
● Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a child restraint system
because the belt will not securely hold the child restraint system, increas-
ing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
● The personalized extender may not be safe on another vehicle, when
used by another person, or at a different seating position other than the
one originally intended.
NOTICE
■When using a seat belt extender
When releasing the seat belt, press on the buckle release button on the
extender, not on the seat belt.

CAUTION

Front passenger occupant cl assification system precautions
● Do not apply a heavy load to the front passenger seat or equipment (e.g.
seatback pocket).
● Do not apply pressure to the right front passenger seat by resting hands or
legs on the seatback.
● Double Cab and CrewMax models: Do not put weight on the front passen-
ger seat by putting your hands or feet on the front passenger seat seat-
back from the rear passenger seat.
● Double Cab and CrewMax models: Do not let a rear passenger lift the
front passenger seat with their feet or press on the seatback with their
legs.
● Do not put objects under the front passenger seat.
● Do not recline the front passenger seatback so far that it touches a rear
seat or a back wall. This may cause the AIR BAG OFF indicator light to be
illuminated, which indicates that the passenger’s airbags will not deploy in
the event of a severe accident. If the seatback touches the rear seat or
back wall, return the seatback to a position where it does not touch the
rear seat or back wall. Keep the front passenger seatback as upright as
possible when the vehicle is moving. Reclining the seatback excessively
may lessen the effectiveness of the seat belt system.
● If an adult sits in the right front passenger seat, the AIR BAG ON indicator
light is illuminated. If the AIR BAG OFF indicator is illuminated, ask the
passenger to sit up straight, well back in the seat, feet on the floor, and
with the seat belt worn correctly. If the AIR BAG OFF indicator still remains
illuminated, either ask the passenger to move to the rear seat, or if that is
not possible, move the right front passenger seat fully rearward.
● When it is unavoidable to install the forward-facing child restraint system
on the front passenger seat, install the child restraint system on the front
passenger seat in the proper order. ( P. 149)
● Do not modify or remove the front seats.
● Do not kick the front passenger seat or subject it to severe impact. Other-
wise, the SRS warning light may come on to indicate a malfunction of the
detection system. In this case, contact your Toyota dealer immediately.
