Before driving

Use only floor mats designed specifically for vehicles of the same
model and model year as your vehicle. Fix them securely in place
onto the carpet.

Insert the retaining hooks (clips)
into the floor mat eyelets.

Turn the upper knob of each
retaining hook (clip) to secure
the floor mats in place.

*

: Always align the 

 marks.

The shape of the retaining hooks (clips) may differ from that shown in the
illustration.

WARNING

Observe the following precautions. 
Failure to do so may cause the driver’s floor mat to slip, possibly interfering
with the pedals while driving. An unexpectedly high speed may result or it may
become difficult to stop the vehicle. This could lead to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.

■

When installing the driver’s floor mat 

●

Do not use floor mats designed for other models or different model year
vehicles, even if they are Toyota Genuine floor mats.

●

Only use floor mats designed for the driver’s seat.

●

Always install the floor mat securely using the retaining hooks (clips) pro-
vided.

●

Do not use two or more floor mats on top of each other.

●

Do not place the floor mat bottom-side up or upside-down.

■

Before driving

●

Check that the floor mat is securely
fixed in the correct place with all the
provided retaining hooks (clips). Be
especially careful to perform this check
after cleaning the floor.

●

With the engine stopped and the shift
lever in P, fully depress each pedal to
the floor to make sure it does not inter-
fere with the floor mat.

For safe driving

Adjust the angle of the seat-
back so that you are sitting
straight up and so that you do
not have to lean forward to
steer. (

→P. 120)

Adjust the seat so that you can
depress the pedals fully and so
that your arms bend slightly at
the elbow when gripping the
steering wheel. (

→P. 120, 140)

Lock the head restraint in place with the center of the head restraint
closest to the top of your ears. (

→P. 138)

Wear the seat belt correctly. (

→P. 28)

Make sure that all occupants are wearing their seat belts before driv-
ing the vehicle. (

→P. 28) 

Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. 
(

→P. 56)

For safe driving, adjust the seat and mirror to an appropriate
position before driving.

Make sure that you can see the rear of the vehicle clearly by adjusting
the inside and outside rear view mirrors properly. (

→P. 142, 145)

Adjusting the mirrors

WARNING

Observe the following precautions. 
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

●

Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving. 
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

●

Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback. 
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce
the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.

●

Do not place anything under the front seats. 
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat
tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an acci-
dent and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.

●

Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads.

●

When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start to
feel tired. 
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con-
tinue driving and take a break immediately.

Seat belts

● Extend the shoulder belt so that

it comes fully over the shoulder,
but does not come into contact
with the neck or slide off the
shoulder.

● Position the lap belt as low as

possible over the hips.

● Adjust the position of the seat-

back. Sit up straight and well
back in the seat.

● Do not twist the seat belt.

To fasten the seat belt, push the
plate into the buckle until a click
sound is heard. 

To release the seat belt, press
the release button.

Make sure that all occupants are wearing their seat belts before

Push the seat belt shoulder

Move the height adjuster up and
down as needed until you hear a
click.

The pretensioners help the seat
belts to quickly restrain the occu-
pants by retracting the seat belts
when the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal or
side collision, or a vehicle rollover.

The pretensioners do not activate
in the event of a minor frontal
impact, a minor side impact or a
rear impact.

■

Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also
lock if you lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to
extend so that you can move around fully. 

■

Automatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is completely extended and then retracted
even slightly, the belt is locked in that position and cannot be extended. This
feature is used to hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly. To free the belt
again, fully retract the belt and then pull the belt out once more. (

→P. 60)

■

Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle were principally designed for persons of adult
size. 

●

Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. (

→P. 56)

●

When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat
belt, follow the instructions regarding seat belt usage. (

→P. 28)

■

Replacing the belt after the pretensioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensioner will activate for
the first collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent collisions.

■

Seat belt extender

If your seat belts cannot be fastened
securely because they are not long
enough, a personalized seat belt extender
is available from your Toyota dealer free
of charge.
