ture.

102 1-7. Safety information
CAUTION
■Front passenger occupant cl assification system precautions
● Do not recline the front passenger seatback so far that it touches a rear
seat. This may cause the “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator light to
be illuminated, which indicates that the passenger’s airbags will not deploy
in the event of a severe accident. If the seatback touches the rear seat\
,
return the seatback to a position where it does not touch the rear seat.
Keep the front passenger seatback as upright as possible when the vehi-
cle is moving. Reclining the seatback excessively may lessen the effec-
tiveness of the seat belt system.
● If an adult sits in the front passenger seat, the “PASSENGER AIR BAG
ON” indicator light is illuminated. If the “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indi-
cator is illuminated, ask the passenger to sit up straight, well back in the
seat, feet on the floor, and with the seat belt worn correctly. If the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator still remains illuminated, either
ask the passenger to move to the rear seat, or if that is not possible, move
the front passenger seat fully rearward.
● When it is unavoidable to install the forward-facing child restraint system
on the front passenger seat, install the child restraint system on the front
passenger seat in the proper order. (P. 107)
● Do not modify or remove the front seats.
● Do not kick the front passenger seat or subject it to severe impact. Other-
wise, the SRS warning light may come on to indicate a malfunction of the
detection system. In this case, contact your Toyota dealer immediately.
● Child restraint systems installed on the rear seat should not contact the
front seatbacks.
● Do not use a seat accessory, such as a cushion or seat cover, that covers
the seat cushion surface.
● Do not modify or replace the upholstery of the front seat.

Before driving
Installing child restraints

secure child restraints to the r ear seats using the LATCH anchors or
a seat belt. Attach the top teth er strap when installing a child
restraint.

not compatible with the LATCH (Low er Anchors and Tethers for Chil-
dren) system.
Seat belts equipped with a
child restraint locking mecha-
nism (ALR/ELR belts except
driver’s seat belt) ( P. 58)
Child restraint LATCH anchors

When driving
CAUTION
■Storage precautions
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●To prevent cargo and luggage from sliding forward during braking, do
not stack anything in the enlarged trunk. Keep cargo and luggage low,
as close to the floor as possible.
●Never allow anyone to ride in the enlarged trunk. It is not designed for
passengers. They should ride in their seats with their seat belts prop-
erly fastened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer death or
serious bodily injury, in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving
or an accident.
●Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations as the
item may get under the clutch, brake or accelerator pedal and prevent
the pedals from being depressed properly, block the driver’s vision, or
hit the driver or passengers, causing an accident.
• Driver’s feet
• Front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• Package tray
• Instrument panel
• Dashboard
●Secure all items in the occupant compartment, as they may shift and
injure someone during sudden braking, sudden swerving or an acci-
dent.
■Capacity and distribution
●Do not exceed the maximum axle weight rating or the total vehicle
weight rating.
●Even if the total load of occupant's weight and the cargo load is less
than the total load capacity, do not apply the load unevenly.
Improper loading may cause deterioration of steering or braking con-
trol which may cause death or serious injury.
