WARNING

■ When installing a child restraint system

Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual

and fix the child restraint system securely in place.

1

If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other

passengers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden

braking, sudden swerving or an accident.

● If the driver’s seat interferes with the

child restraint system and prevents it

from being attached correctly, attach

the child restraint system to the right-

hand rear seat (left-hand drive vehicles)

or the left-hand rear seat (right-hand

drive vehicles).

● Adjust the front passenger seat so that

it does not interfere with the child

restraint system.

● Child restraint system installed on the

third seat should not contact the second

seatbacks.

● When installing a forward-facing child

or junior seat on the front passenger

seat, move the seat as far back as pos-

sible.

Failing to do so may result in death or

serious injury if the airbags deploy

(inflate).

1-7. Safety information

WARNING

■ When installing a child restraint system

● When installing a child restraint system

in the rear seat, adjust the adjacent

seat cushions to the same position

(second seats) and align seatbacks at

the same angle. Otherwise, the child

restraint system cannot be securely

restrained and this may cause death or

serious injuries in the event of sudden

braking, sudden swerving or an acci-

dent.

Same angle

Same position (second seats)

● Never use a rear-facing child restraint

system on the front passenger seat

when the airbag manual on-off switch is

“ON”. (P. 179)

The force of the rapid inflation of the

front passenger airbag can cause death

or serious injury to children in the event

of an accident.

176

WARNING

■ When installing a child restraint system

● There is a label(s) on the passenger

side sun visor, indicating it is forbidden

1

to attach a rear-facing child restraint

system to the front passenger seat.

Details of the label(s) are shown in the

illustration below.

● If child restraint system regulations exist in the country where you reside,

please contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly

qualified and equipped professional for the child restraint system installa-

tion.

●When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is

positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be

kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s

shoulder. Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury in the event

of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.

●Ensure that the belt and tab are securely locked and the seat belt is not

twisted.

1-7. Safety information

WARNING

■ When installing a child restraint system

For safety reasons, always install the child restraint system in a rear seat. In

the event that the rear seat cannot be used, the front seat can be used as

long as the airbag manual on-off system is set to “OFF”.

If the airbag manual on-off system is left “ON”, the strong impact of the air-

bag deployment (inflation) may cause serious injury or even death.

■ When a child restraint system is not installed on the front passenger

seat

Ensure that the airbag manual on-off system is set to “ON”.

If it is left “OFF”, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident, which

may result in serious injury or even death.
