The lower anchorages for the child re-
straint system interfaced with the
FMVSS225 specification are installed in
the second seat.
The anchorages are installed in the clear-
ance between the seat cushion and seat-
back of left and center second seats.
Child restraint system interfaced with the
FMVSS225 specification can be fixed with
these anchorages. In this case, it is not
necessary to fix the child restraint system
with a seat belt on the vehicle.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM INSTALLA-
TION1. Take off the cover between the seat cushion and seatback a little and
confirm the position of the lower an-
chorages below the tag on the seat
cushion.

2. Latch the buckles onto the anchor- ages
If your child restraint system has a top
strap, it should be anchored. (For the
installation of the top strap, see “—Using
a top strap” on page 91.)
For the installation details, refer to the
instruction manual equipped with each
product.CAUTION
When using the lower anchorages
for the child restraint system, be
sure that there are no irregular ob-
jects around the anchorages or that
the seat belt is not caught.
Push and pull the child restraint
system in different directions to be
sure it is secure. Follow all the
installation instructions provided by
its manufacturer.
Do not put a child restraint system
on the rear seat if it interferes with
the lock mechanism of the front
seats. This can cause death or seri-
ous injury to the child and front
passenger in case of sudden brak-
ing or a collision.ADJUSTMENT OF STEERING WHEEL
TILT
To adjust the tilt of the steering wheel,
push the control switch upward or
downward to set it to the desired posi-
tion.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the steering wheel
while the vehicle is moving. Doing so
may cause the driver to mishandle
the vehicle and an accident may oc-
cur resulting in death or serious inju-
ries.

ADJUSTMENT OF TELESCOPIC STEER-
ING COLUMN
To adjust the steering column length,
push the control switch forward or
backward to set the steering wheel to
the desired position.
When the ignition key is removed, the
steering column moves forward away from
the driver and also tilts up for easy exit
and entry.
When the key is inserted into the ignition
switch, the steering column returns to the
previously set position.
This feature can be set inoperative. Ask
your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the steering column
while the vehicle is moving. Doing so
may cause the driver to mishandle
the vehicle and an accident may oc-
cur resulting in death or serious inju-
ries.
Outside rear view mirrors—
Adjust the mirror so that you can just
see the side of your vehicle in the mir-
ror.
Be careful when judging the size or dis-
tance of any object seen in the outside
rear view mirror on the passenger ’s side
because it is a convex mirror. Any object
seen in a convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than when seen in a flat
mirror.
When you push the outside rear view mir-
ror heater switch, the heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear
the mirror surface. (See “Outside rear
view mirror heaters” on page 112.)

CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the
vehicle is moving. Doing so may
cause the driver to mishandle the
vehicle and an accident may occur
resulting in death or serious inju-
ries.
Since the mirror surfaces can get
hot, do not touch them when the
mirror heater switch is on.
To adjust a mirror, use the switches.1. Master switch—To select the mirror to be adjusted
Place the switch at ”L” (left) or ”R”
(right).
2. Control switch—To move the mirror Push the switch in the desired direc-
tion.
Mirrors can be adjusted when the key is
in the ”ACC” or ”ON” position.
NOTICE
If ice should jam the mirror, do not
operate the control or scrape the mir-
ror face. Use a spray de icer to free
the mirror.

—Folding rear view mirrors
The rear view mirrors can be folded
backward for parking in compact areas.
To fold the rear view mirror, push back-
ward.
CAUTION
Do not drive with the mirrors folded
backward. Both the driver and pas-
senger side rear view mirrors must
be extended and properly adjusted
before driving.
13C010
Adjust the mirror so that you can just
see the rear of your vehicle in the mir-
ror.
Pushing the switch changes the mode
between “AUTO” and “DAY”.
The indicator comes on when the “AUTO”
mode is selected.
“DAY” mode: The mirror surface is nor-
mal.
“AUTO” mode: If the mirror detects
light from the headlights of the vehicle
behind you, the mirror surface darkens
slightly to reduce the reflected light.When the ignition key is inserted and
turned on, the inside rear view mirror al-
ways turns on in the “AUTO” mode.
When the outside air temperature is low,
it may take a little longer for the mirror
to darken in response to the detection of
headlights.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the
vehicle is moving. Doing so may
cause the driver to mishandle the ve-
hicle and an accident may occur re-
sulting in death or serious injuries.

Pushing the “AUTO” button for longer
3 seconds turns on or off the compass
display.
The compass may not show the correct
direction in the following conditions:
The vehicle is stopped immediately af-
ter turning. The compass does not ad-
just while the vehicle is stopped.
The ignition switch is turned off imme-
diately after turning.
The vehicle is on an inclined surface.
The vehicle is in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in-
terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
The vehicle is magnetized. (There is a
magnet or a metal object on or near
the inside rear view mirror.)
The battery has been disconnected.
Any door is open.
The compass works to calibrate the direc-
tion automatically while the vehicle is in
motion, if deviation is small.
For obtaining additional precision or for
complete calibrating, see “Calibrating the
compass” below.
NOTICE
Do not put magnets or a metal object
near the inside rear view mirror. Do-
ing this may cause malfunction of the
compass sensor.
CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (deviation
calibration)
The direction display on the compass
deviates from the true direction deter-
mined by the earth’s magnetic field, The
amount of deviation varies according to
the geographic position of the vehicle.
To adjust for this deviation, stop the ve-
hicle and push the button for longer than
about 6 seconds until the number (1 15)
appears on the display. Then push the
button again, referring to the following
map to select the number of the zone
where the vehicle is.

If the direction is displayed several sec-
onds after adjustment, the calibration is
finished.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.

CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (circling
calibration)
“C” appears on the display in case the
circling calibration is required due to a
drastic change in the magnetic field. To
rectify this, follow the calibration proce-
dure below.
13C012
Drive the vehicle slowly (at 8km/h (5mph)
or lower) in a circle until the direction is
displayed. If there is not enough space to
drive in a circle, drive around the block
until the direction is displayed.
After driving in 1 to 3 circles in the above
method, calibration is complete with the
direction shown on the display.
If calibration cannot be performed because
of the magnetized vehicle, etc., take your
vehicle to Toyota dealer.
Do not perform circling calibration of
the compass in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in-
terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
During calibration, do not operate elec-
tric systems (moon roof, power win-
dows, etc.) as they may interfere with
the calibration.
CAUTION
When doing the circling calibration,
be sure to secure a wide space,
and watch out for people and ve-
hicles in the neighborhood. Do not
violate any local traffic rules while
performing circling calibration.
Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.
