tem on the rear seat if it interferes
with the lock mechanism of the
front seats. Otherwise, the child or
front seat occupant(s) may be killed
or seriously injured in case of sud-
den braking or a collision.
If the driver ’s seat position does
not allow sufficient space for safe
installation, install the child re-
straint system on the rear right
seat.

confirm the position of the lower an-
chorages near the button on the
seatback.
2. Type A—Latch the hooks of lower straps onto the anchorages and
tighten the lower straps.
Type B—Latch the buckles onto the
anchorages.
For owners in Canada— The symbol on
a child restraint system indicates the pres-
ence of a lower connector system.
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 78 in this Section.)
For installation details, refer to the instruc-
tion 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 install a child restraint sys-
tem on the rear seat if it interferes

front seat occupant(s) may be killed
or seriously injured in case of sud-
den braking or a collision.

To cool off your Toyota after it has
been parked in the hot sun, drive with
the windows open long enough for the
hot air to escape. This operation allows
the air conditioning to cool the interior
more quickly.
Make sure the air intake grilles in front
of the windshield are not blocked (by
leaves or snow, for example).
On humid days, do not blow cold air
on the windshield. The windshield could
fog up because of the difference in air
temperature on the inside and outside
of the windshield.
Keep the area under the front seats
clear to allow air to circulate through-
out the vehicle.
On cold days, set the fan speed to
high for a minute to help clear the
intake ducts of snow or moisture. This
can reduce the amount of fogging on
the windows.
When driving on dusty roads, close all
windows. If dust thrown up by the ve-
hicle is still drawn into the vehicle after
closing the windows, it is recommended
that the air intake selector be set to
FRESH and the fan speed selector to
any setting except “OFF”.

NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being
discharged, turn off all the vehicle’s
electronic equipment and accesso-
ries, such as the headlights, fog
lights and air conditioner, when
electrical appliances that consume
in excess of 100W are used contin-
uously for long periods of time.
 To prevent any damage caused by
heat, do not use any electrical ap-
pliances that give off intense heat
such as toasters, in any locations
including the internal or external
trim, seats and deck.
 Do not use any electrical ap-
pliances, which are easily affected
by vibration or heat, inside the ve-
hicle. Vibration while driving, or the
heat of the sun while parking, may
result in damage to those electrical
appliances.
 Keep the lid closed when the power
outlet is not in use. Do not insert
any items other than appropriate
plugs, as this may cause electrical
failure or short circuits.
After inserting a plug, gently close
the power outlet lid. Failure to do
so may cause damage to the plug.
 If any electrical appliances are to
be used while driving, securely fas-
ten both the appliances and their
cables to prevent them from falling
or getting caught any of the power-
train components.
 Do not use plug adaptors to con-
nect too many plugs to the power
outlet.
 If the power outlet is loose when an
electrical appliance plug is con-
nected, replace the outlet. Contact
a Toyota dealer for any necessary
replacements.
 If the power outlet gets dirty, turn
the main switch off and use a soft,
clean, drywet cloth to wipe it gent-
ly. Do not use any cleansing materi-
als, such as organic solvents, wax,
or compound cleaners, as these
may damage the power outlet or
cause it to malfunction.Keep the power outlet free from
dust and foreign materials and
clean it regularly.
The power outlet is not designed for
the following electric appliances even if
their power consumption is below the
maximum capacity. These appliances
may not operate properly.
Appliances with high initial peak watt-
age: cathode− ray tube type televisions,
compressor −driven refrigerators, electric
tools, etc.
Measuring devices which process pre-
cise data: medical equipment, measur-
ing instruments, etc.
Other appliances requiring an extremely
stable power supply: microcomputer −
controlled electric blankets, touch sen-
sor lamps, etc.
Use of the power outlet may not be
possible if the vehicle battery voltage is
low due to decreased battery capacity.
The integrated timers of electrical ap-
pliances may not function properly
when the power supply is cut by the
protection circuit.

Cargo capacity
Cargo capacity may increase or de-
crease depending on the size (weight)
and the number of occupants. For de-
tails, see “Capacity and distribution”
that follows.
CAUTION
Do not apply the load more than
each load limit. That may cause
not only damage to the tires, but
also deterioration to the steering
ability and braking ability, which
may cause an accident.
When stowing cargo and luggage in
the vehicle, observe the following: Put cargo and luggage in the lug-
gage compartment when at all
possible. Be sure all items are se-
cured in place.
 Be careful to keep the vehicle bal-
anced. Locating the weight as far
forward as possible helps maintain
balance.
 For better fuel economy, do not
carry unneeded weight.
CAUTION
To prevent cargo and l uggage
from sliding forward during
braking, do not stack anything
in the luggage compartment
higher than the seatbacks.
Keep cargo and luggage low,
as close to the floor as pos-
sible.
 Do not place anything on the
flattened seat or it may slide
forward during braking.
 Never allow anyone to ride in
the luggage compartment. It is
not designed for passengers.
They should ride in their seats
with their seat belts properly
fastened. Otherwise, they are
much more likely to suffer
death or serious bodily injury,
in the event of sudden braking
or a collision.
 Do not drive with objects left
on top of the instrument panel.
They may interfere with the
driver’s field of view. Or they
may move during sharp vehicle
acceleration or turning, and im-
pair the driver’s control of the
vehicle. In an accident they
may injure the vehicle occu-
pants.
