■There is a malfunction in the system

smaller adult sits in the front pa ssenger seat, the system may rec-
ognize him/her as a child dependi ng on his/her physique and pos-
ture.
*2:In the event the front passenge r does not wear a seat belt.
*3:When a larger child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits
in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as
an adult depending on his/her physique or posture.

senger seat. A forward-facing child restraint system should only be
installed on the front passenger seat when it is unavoidable. ( P.

installing the child restraint system properly. ( P. 9 9 )

■If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as ABS and the SRS airbag warning light
not come on when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems
are not available to help protect you in an accident, which could result in
death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer
immediately if this occurs.
