SEAT AND SEAT BELTS
Seat adjustmentEG21A-Ya
Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are
comfortable and that you can reach the
pedals, steering wheel, switches etc.
while retaining a clear field of vision.
WARNING(1) If required, always adjust the
seating before the vehicle is in
motion. After adjustments are
made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempting
to move the seat and seatback
forward and rearward without
using the adjusting mechanism.
(2) It is extremely dangerous to ride
in the cargo area of a vehicle.
Also, the cargo area and rear
seats should never be used as a
play area by children. In a colli-
sion, people or children riding
unrestrained in these areas are
more likely to be seriously in-
jured or killed.
Do not allow people or children
to ride in any area of your vehi-
cle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts, and make
sure that everyone travelling in
your vehicle is in a seat and
wearing a seat belt, or in the
case of a child is strapped in a
child restraint.
In the interest of their safety,
children should not be allowed
to adjust the seats.
(3) To minimize the risk of personal
injury in the event of a collision
or sudden braking, both the dri-
ver and passenger seatbacks
should always be in the almost
upright position while the vehi-
cle is in motion. The protection
provided by the seat belts may
be reduced significantly when
the seatback is reclined. There is
greater risk that the passenger
will slide under the seat belt, re-
sulting in serious injury, when
the seatback is reclined.CAUTION(1) Make sure that the seat is ad-
justed by an adult.
If it is adjusted by a child, an un-
expected accident might occur.
(2) Do not place a cushion or the
like between your back and
the seatback while driving. The
effectiveness of the head-
restraints will be reduced in the
event of an accident.
(3) When sliding or reclining the
seat rearward, pay careful atten-
tion to the rear seat passengers.

SEAT AND SEAT BELTS
WARNING(4) Seat belts should always be
worn by every adult who drives
or rides in this vehicle, and by all
children who are large enough
to wear seat belts properly.
(5) Remove any twists when using
the belt.
(6) No modifications or additions
should be made by the user
which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from op-
erating to remove slack, or pre-
vent the seat belt assembly from
being adjusted to remove slack.
(7) To reduce risk of serious or fatal
injury in an accident, including
from a deploying driver’s air
bag, the driver should adjust the
driver’s seat to the rear most po-
sition that still allows good visi-
bility and good control of the
steering wheel, the brake and
accelerator, and vehicle con-
trols.
3-point type seat belt (with
emergency locking mechanism)
This type of belt requires no length adjust-
ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to
the movement of the wearer, but in the
event of a sudden or strong shock, the belt
automatically locks to hold the wearer’s
body.
WARNING(8) Never hold a child in your arms
or on your lap when riding in this
vehicle, even if you are wearing
your seat belt. To do so risks se-
vere or fatal injury to your child
in a collision or sudden stop.
(9) Always adjust the belt to a snug
fit.

SEAT AND SEAT BELTS
Lap belts*
The lap belts should be adjusted by hold-
ing the belt and latch plate at right angles
to each other, and then pulling the belt as
shown in the illustration to a snug fit
around the occupant.
1 - Tighten
2 - Loosen
While holding the latch plate, insert the
latch plate into the buckle until a “click” is
heard.
NOTE
The buckle and latch plate of the centre
lap belt are marked with “CENTER”.
Be sure to check the marking before wear-
ing the centre lap belt.
Child restraintEG28BPUd
When transporting children in your vehi-
cle, some type of child restraint system
should be used according to the size of
the child. This is required by law in most
countries.
The regulations concerning driving with
children in the front seat may differ from
country to country. You are advised to
comply with the relevant regulations.
WARNING(1) When possible, put children in
the rear seat. Accident statistics
indicate that children of all sizes
and ages are safer when prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat
rather than in the front seat.
(Double cab, Club cab)
(2) Holding a child in your arms is
no substitute for a restraint sys-
tem. Failure to use a proper
restraint system can result in se-
vere or fatal injury to your child.
(3) Each restraint device or fixing is
to be used only by one child.
Adjustable seat belt anchor*
(front seats)
EG08C-Ca
The seat belt anchor height can be ad-
justed.
Move the seat belt anchor down with the
lock knob (A) depressed. To move the an-
chor up, slide it without depressing the
lock knob (A).
CAUTIONWhen adjusting the seat belt anchor,
set it at a position that is sufficiently
high so that the belt will make full
contact with your shoulder but will
not touch your neck.
