restraint system does not provide a locking clip, you can purchase the fol-
lowing item from any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly

CAUTION
When installing a child restraint system
Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual
and fix the child restraint system securely in place.
If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other
passengers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden
braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
If the driver’s seat interferes with the
child restraint system and prevents it
from being attached correctly, attach
the child restraint system to the right-
hand rear seat (left-hand drive vehicles)
or the left-hand rear seat (right-hand
drive vehicles).
When installing a forward-facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat,
move the seat as far back as possible.
Failing to do so may result in death or
serious injury if the airbags deploy
(inflate).

CAUTION
When installing a child restraint system
Never install a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger seat
when the airbag manual on-off switch is
“ON”. (P. 190)
The force of the rapid inflation of the
front passenger airbag can cause death
or serious injury to children in the event
of an accident.
There is a sticker on the passenger
side of the instrument panel and a label
on both sides of the passenger side sun
visor, both indicating it is forbidden to
attach a rear-facing child restraint sys-
tem to the front passenger seat.
Details of the label on the passenger
side sun visor are shown in the illustra-
tions below. The label includes informa-
tion written in the language of your
country.

CAUTION
When installing a child restraint system
Type E
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 sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
