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
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.

SEAT AND SEAT BELTS
Caution for installing the child restraint
on vehicle with front passenger air
bag*
The label shown here is attached on vehi-
cles with front passenger air bag.
If this label is attached, do not install a
rear-facing child restraint on the front pas-
senger’s seat.
WARNING(1) Extreme Hazard!
REAR-FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINTS must NOT be used in
the front passenger seat as it
places an infant too close to the
passenger air bag. The force of
an inflating air bag could kill or
cause serious injuries to the
child.
(2) FRONT-FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINTS should be used in the
rear seat whenever possible; if
used in the front seat, adjust the
seat as far back as possible.

SEAT AND SEAT BELTS
Infants and small children
When transporting infants and small chil-
dren in your vehicle, follow the instruction
given below.
Instruction:
(1) For small infants an infant carrier
should be used. For small children
whose height when seated allows the
shoulder belt to lie in contact with the
face or the throat, a child seat should
be used.
(2) The child restraint system should be
appropriate for your child’s weight
and height and properly fit the vehicle.
WARNING(1) When installing a child restraint
system, refer to the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of
the restraint system. Failure to
do so can result in severe or
fatal injury to your child.
(2) After installation, push and pull
the child restraint system back
and forth, and side to side, to
see that it is positively secured.
If the child restraint system is
not installed securely, it may
cause injury to the child or other
occupants in case of accident or
sudden stops.
(3) When not in use, keep your child
or infant seat secured with the
seat belt or remove it from the
vehicle in order to prevent injury
to your child.
(3)Before purchasing a child seat or infant
carrier, first try to install it in the seat to
ensure it fits well. Due to the location of
the seat belt buckles in the seat cush-
ion, it may be difficult to securely install
some child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be
pulled forward easily on the seat
cushion after the belt has been tight-
ened, choose another child restraint
system.
