Essential Safety Equipment
Make sure the ignition is switched off.
Slide the seat as far back as
possible.
Remove the head restraint.
Place the child-restraint system on the seat without putting your

To get the retractor into the automatic locking mode, pull the shoul-
der belt portion of the seat bel t until the entire length of the belt is
out of the retractor.
WARNING
■ Always remove the head restraint and install child-restraint sy stem
Installing a child-restraint system without removing the head restraint is
dangerous. The child-restraint system cannot be installed corre ctly which
may result in death or injury to the child in a collision.
■ Always install the head restraint and adjust it to the appropriate posi-
tion after removing the child-restraint system

1-3. Child Restraint
Push the child-restraint system firmly into the vehicle seat. Be sure
the belt retracts as snugly as possible. A clicking noise from the
retractor will be hear d during retraction if the system is in a utomatic
locking mode. If the belt does not lock the seat down tight, re peat
the previous step and also this one.
Inspect this function before each use of the child-restraint sy stem. You
should not be able to pull the shoulder belt out of the retract or while the
system is in the automatic locking mode. When you remove the ch ild-
restraint system, be sure the belt fully retracts to return the system to
emergency locking mode before occupants use the seat belts.
Seat your child safely in the child-restraint system and secure the
child according to the instructions from the child-restraint sy stem
manufacturer.
Switch the ignition ON and
make sure the front passenger
air bag deactivation indicator
light illuminates after installing a
child-restraint system on the
front passenger seat.
If the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light does
not illuminate, remove the child-
restraint system, switch the
ignition to OFF, and then re-
install the child-restraint sys-
tem ( P. 8 2 ) .
Follow the child-restraint system manufacturer’s instructions carefully.
Depending on the type of child-restraint system, it may not employ seat belts
which are in automatic locking mode.

Essential Safety Equipment
If your vehicle is also equipped with a front passenger occupant clas-
sification system, refer to the Front Passenger Occupant Classi fica-
tion System ( P. 82) for details.
If your vehicle is equipped with a
front passenger occupant classifi-
cation system, the front passen-
ger air bag deactivation indicator
light illuminates for a specified
time after the ignition is switched
ON.
Small children must be protected by a child-restraint system as stipu-
lated by law in every state and province. In certain states and prov-
inces, larger children must use a child-restraint system (P. 4 4 ) .
Carefully consider which child-re straint system is necessary for your
child and follow the installation directions in this Owner’s Manual as
well as the child-restraint syste m manufacturer’s instructions.
●If it becomes necessary to have the components or wiring system for the
supplementary restraint system modified to accommodate a person with
certain medical conditions in accordance with a certified physi cian, contact
your Toyota dealer.
● When an air bag deploys, a loud inflation noise can be heard an d some
smoke will be released. Neither is likely to cause injury, however, the texture
of the air bags may cause light skin injuries on body parts not covered with
clothing through friction.
● Should you sell your Toyota, we urge you to tell the new owner of its air bag
systems and that familiarization with all instructions about th em, from the
Owner’s Manual, is important.
● This highly-visible label is displayed
which warns against the use of a rear-
facing child-restraint system on the front
passenger seat.
