When returning the bottom cushion to its
original position, hang the strap on the
hook.
CAUTION
DAny operations should not be made
while the vehicle is moving.
DAfter raising the bottom cushion,
make sure to secure it with the
holding strap.
DWhen returning the bottom cushion
to its original position, observe the
following precautions in order to
prevent death or serious injury in a
collision or sudden stop:
Make sure the bottom cushion is
securely locked by trying to pull up
the edge of the bottom cushion.
Failure to do so will prevent the
seat belt from operating properly.
Make sure the seat belts are not
twisted or caught under the bottom
cushion and are arranged in their
proper position and are ready to
use.
The head restraints can be removed.
For your safety, always use the head
restraints in the locked position.

lock release button.
When an occupant sits on the rear seat,
always pull up the head restraint to the
lock position.

it is close to your head. Therefore, using
a cushion on the seatback is not recom-
mended.

each respective seat.
DMake sure the head restraint is
locked in position.
DDo not drive with the head re-
straints removed.

The driver ’s seat belt pretensionersystem
mainly consists of the following compo-
nents and their locations are shown in the
illustration.
1. SRS warning light
2. Airbag sensor
3. Driver ’s seat belt pretensioner assem-
bly
4. Airbag sensor assembly
The driver ’s seat belt pretensioner is con-
trolled by the airbag sensor assembly. The
airbag sensor assembly consists of a saf-
ing sensor and airbag sensor.
When the driver ’s seat belt pretensioner is
activated, an operating noise may be
heard and a small amount of smoke−like
gas may be released. This gas is harm-
less and does not indicate that a fire is
occurring.
Once the driver ’s seat belt pretensioner
has been activated, the seat belt retractor
remains locked.
If the vehicle is involved in multiple colli-
sions, the pretensioner will activate for the
first collision, but will not activate for the
second or subsequent collisions.
CAUTION
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of injury in the event
of sudden braking or an accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or
serious injury.
DIf the pretensioner has activated,
the SRS warning light will come on.
In that case, the seat belt cannot
be used again and must be re-
placed at any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
DDo not modify, remove, strike or
open the seat belt pretensioner as-
semblies, airbag sensor or sur-
rounding area or wiring. Consult
any authorized Toyota dealer or re-
pairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional about any re-
pair and modification.

CAUTION
DDo not put objects or your pets on
or in front of the steering wheel
pad. They might restrict inflation or
cause death or serious injury as
they are projected rearward by the
force of a deploying airbag. Like-
wise, the driver should not hold ob-
jects in his/her arms or on his/her
knees.
DDo not modify or remove any wir-
ing. Do not modify, remove, strike
or open any components such as
the steering wheel pad, steering
wheel, column cover or airbag sen-
sor assembly. Doing so may cause
sudden SRS airbag inflation or dis-
able the system, which could result
in death or serious injury.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or serious injury.
Consult any authorized Toyota dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional, about any
repairs and modifications.
NOTICE
Do not perform any of the following
changes without consulting any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer,
or another duly qualified and
equipped professional. Such changes
can interfere with proper operation of
the SRS airbag system in some cases.

A child restraint system for a small
child or baby must itself be properly
restrained on the seat with either the
lap belt or the lap portion of the lap/
shoulder belt. You must carefully con-
sult the manufacturer ’s instructions
which accompany the child restraint
system.
To provide proper restraint, use a child
restraint system following the manufactur-
er ’s instructions about the appropriate age
and size of the child for the child restraint
system.
Toyota recommends that you use a child
restraint system which conforms to the
regulation “ECE No.44”.
Install the child restraint system correctly
following the instructions provided by its
manufacturer. General directions are also
provided under the following illustrations.
The child restraint system should be
installed on the rear seat. According to
accident statistics, the child is safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than
in the front seat.CAUTION
When the child restraint system is
not in use:
DKeep the child restraint system
properly secured on the seat even
if it is not in use. Do not store the
restraint unsecured in the passen-
ger compartment.
DIf it is necessary to detach the
child restraint system, remove it
from the vehicle or store it securely
in the luggage compartment. This
will prevent it from injuring passen-
gers in the event of a sudden stop,
sudden swerve or accident.
DAfter installing the child restraint
system, make sure it is secured in
place following the manufacturer ’s
instructions. If it is not restrained
securely, it may cause death or se-
rious injury to the child in the
event of a sudden stop, sudden
swerve or accident.
When installing a child restraint system
witha3−point seat belt, you will need a
locking clip.
If your child restraint systemdoes not
provide a locking clip, you can purchase
the following item from any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
