Instructions:For small infants, an infant carrier
should be used. For small children
whose height when seated allows the
shoulder belt to lie in contact with the
face or the throat, a child seat should
be used.
The child restraint system should be
appropriate for your child’s weight and
height and properly fit the vehicle. For a
higher degree of safety THE CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM SHOULD BE
INSTALLED IN THE REAR SEAT
(Double cab and Club cab).
Before purchasing a child restraint
system, try installing it in the seat to
make sure there is a good fit. Because
of the location of the seat belt buckles
and the shape of the seat cushion, it
may be difficult to securely install some
manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can bepulled forward or to either side easily on
the seat cushion after the seat belt has
been tightened, choose another
manufacturer’s child restraint system.
138) 139) 140)
Older children
Children who have outgrown the child
restraint system should be seated in the
rear seat and wear combination lap
shoulder belt. The lap portion of the belt
should be snug and positioned low on
the abdomen so that it is below the top
of the hip-bone. Otherwise, the belt
could intrude into the child’s abdomen
during an accident and cause injury.
WARNING
123)Fit the child restraint system only
when the vehicle is stationary.
124)When possible, put children in the
rear seat. Accident statistics indicate that
children of all sizes and ages are safer
when properly restrained in the rear seat
rather than in the front seat (Club cab and
Double cab).
125)Holding a child in your arms is no
substitute for a restraint system. Failure to
use a proper restraint system can result in
severe or fatal injury to your child.
126)Each child restraint device or fixing is
to be used only by one child.127)Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided by
the Manufacturer.
128)On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that it
is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if a
rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger side sun visor (see the
"Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) -
Airbag" paragraph).
129)Extreme Hazard! NEVER use a
rearward facing child restraint on a seat
protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of
it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the
CHILD can occur.
130)When attaching a child restraint
system to the rear seat, prevent the front
seat from touching the child restraint
system. Otherwise, the child could be
seriously injured in the event of hard
braking or a collision (Club cab and Double
cab).
131)On vehicles with an airbag for the
front passenger, a REARWARD FACING
CHILD RESTRAINT must NOT be used in
the front passenger seat as it places an
infant too close to the passenger airbag.
The force of an inflating airbag could kill or
cause serious injuries to the child. A
rearward facing child restraint must only be
used in the rear seat. (Club cab and
Double cab).

SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
AIRBAG
The information for SRS airbags
includes important information
concerning the driver’s and front
passenger’s airbags, the driver’s knee
airbag, the side airbags and the curtain
airbags.
The SRS driver’s and front passenger’s
airbags are designed to supplement the
primary protection of the driver and
front passenger side seat belt systems
by providing those occupants with
protection against head and chest
injuries in certain moderate-to-severe
frontal collisions.
The SRS driver airbag employ a dual
stage airbag system (if so equipped).
The SRS driver and front passenger
airbag is controlled by the impact
sensors (at the front of the vehicle) and
the control unit (near the centre of the
vehicle at floor level).
The SRS driver’s knee airbag (if so
equipped) is designed to supplement
the primary protection of the driver’s
seat belt system. It can reduce the
forward movement of the driver’s lower
legs and provide increased overall body
protection in certain moderate-to-
severe frontal collisions.
The SRS side airbags (if so equipped)
are designed to supplement properly
worn seat belts and provide the driver
and front passenger with protectionagainst chest injuries in certain
moderate-to-severe side impact
collisions.
The SRS curtain airbags (if so
equipped) are designed to supplement
properly worn seat belts and provide
the driver and passenger with
protection against head injuries in
certain moderate-to-severe side impact
collisions.
The SRS is NOT a substitute for the
seat belts. To ensure the maximum
protection during all types of collisions
and accidents, all occupants, including
the passengers as well as the driver,
must wear their seat belts.
How the supplemental restraint
system works
The SRS includes the following
components:
1. Airbag module (Driver)*
2. Airbag module (Passenger)*3. Driver’s knee airbag module*
* If so equipped
4. Side airbag modules*
5. Curtain airbag modules*
* If so equipped
Only when the ignition switch or the
operation mode is under the following
conditions, the airbags will operate.
Except for vehicles equipped with the
keyless operation system: the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START”
position.
Vehicles equipped with the keyless
operation system: the operation mode
is in ON.
The airbags deployment produces a
sudden, loud noise, and releases some
smoke and powder, but these
conditions are not injurious, and do not
indicate a fire in the vehicle. People with
respiratory problems may feel some

used to produce the deployment; open
the windows after airbag deployment, if
safe to do so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after
deployment, so there is little danger of
obscured vision.

Caution for installing the child
restraint on vehicle with front
passenger’s airbag
The label shown here is attached on
vehicles with front passenger’s airbag.
153)
NOTE The labels may be in different
positions depending on the vehicle
model.
Driver’s and front passenger’s
airbag system
The driver’s airbag is located under the
padded cover in the middle of the
steering wheel. The front passenger’s
airbag is contained in the instrument
panel above the glove box.
The driver’s airbag inflates at two
different rates according to the severity
of the impact (if so equipped).
The driver’s airbag and the front
passenger’s airbag are designed toinflate at the same time even if the
passenger seat is not occupied.
Driver’s knee airbag system*
The driver’s knee airbag is located
under the steering wheel. The driver’s
knee airbag is designed to deploy at the
same time as the driver’s front airbag.201AF0009484
