142 1-7. Safety information
HILUX_EE (OM0K132E)
CAUTION
When installing a child restraint system
Only put a forward-facing child restraint
system on the front seat when unavoid-
able. When installing a forward-facing
child restraint on the front passenger
seat, move the seat as far back as pos-
sible (if equipped).
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury if the airbags deploy
(inflate).
Never use a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger seat.
The force of the rapid inflation of the
front passenger airbag can cause death
or serious injury to children in the event
of a sudden braking, sudden swerving
or an accident.

CAUTION
When installing a child restraint system
Vehicles with front bench seat: Do not
install a child restraint system in the
center position. This seat position is not
designed to hold a child restraint sys-
tem.
If used in the center position, depend-
ing on its type, the child restraint sys-
tem may interfere with the proper
usage of the driver’s and front passen-
ger’s seat belts. It may also hamper
your driving.
Extra-cab models: Do not install a child
restraint system on the rear seat.
These seats are not designed to hold a
child restraint system.
Double-cab models: Do not install a
rear-facing child (convertible) seat in
the rear center position. This seat posi-
tion is not designed to hold a rear-fac-
ing child (convertible) seat. Otherwise,
the child or front seat occupant(s) may
be killed or seriously injured in the
event of sudden braking, sudden
swerving or an accident.

CAUTION
When installing a child restraint system
If child restraint system regulations exist in the country where you reside,
please contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional for the child restraint system installa-
tion.
When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be
kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s
shoulder. Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury in the event
of a sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Ensure that the belt and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is not
twisted.
Push and pull the child restraint system from side to side and forward to be
sure it is secure.
After securing a child restraint system, never adjust the seat.
Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint system
manufacturer.

CAUTION
Burns
Use caution when seating the following persons in a seat with the seat
heater on to avoid the possibility of burns:
• Babies, small children, the elderly, the sick and the physically chal-
lenged
• Persons with sensitive skin
• Persons who are fatigued
• Persons who have taken alcohol or drugs that induce sleep (sleeping
drugs, cold remedies, etc.)
Do not cover the seat with anything when using the seat heater.
Using the seat heater with a blanket or cushion increases the temperature
of the seat and may lead to overheating.
Do not use the seat heater more than necessary. Doing so may cause
minor burns or overheating.
NOTICE
To prevent seat heater damage
Do not put heavy objects that have an uneven surface on the seat and do
not stick sharp objects (needles, nails, etc.) into the seat.
To prevent battery discharge
Turn the seat heaters off when the engine is not running.
