108 1-7. Safety information
FT86_EE
CAUTION
■SRS airbag
●NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FACING CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
SEAT. DOING SO RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE CHILD
BY PLACING THE CHILD’S HEAD TOO CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG.
●Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the front passenger’s seat, or
never hold a child on your lap or in your arms. The SRS airbag deploys
with considerable force and can injure or even kill the child.
●A deploying SRS airbag releases hot gas. Occupants could get burned if
they come into direct contact with the hot gas.
●Put children in the REAR seat properly
restrained at all times in a child restraint
device or in a seat belt, whichever is
appropriate for the child’s age, height
and weight. The SRS airbag deploys
with considerable speed and force and
can injure or even kill children, espe-
cially if they are not restrained or
improperly restrained. Because chil-
dren are lighter and weaker than adults,
their risk of being injured from deploy-
ment is greater.
Secure ALL types of child restraint
devices (including forward facing child
seats) in the REAR seats at all times.
According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seating positions than in the
front seating positions.
For instructions and precautions con-
cerning the child restraint system, refer
to “Child restraint systems”. (→P. 134)

CAUTION
■SRS airbag precautions
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary,
many drivers can achieve the 250 mm (10 in.) distance, even with the
driver seat all the way forward, simply by reclining the back of the seat
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the
road, raise yourself by using a firm, non-slippery cushion, or raise the
seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air-
bag toward your chest instead of your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as recommended above, while still maintain-
ing control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instru-
ment panel controls.
●The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable force, and
can cause death or serious injury especially if the front passenger is very
close to the airbag. The front passenger seat should be as far from the air-
bag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits
upright.
●Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or
seriously injured by a deploying airbag. An infant or child who is too small
to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint sys-
tem. Toyota strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in
the rear seats of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are
safer for infants and children than the front passenger seat. (→P. 134)
●Do not sit on the edge of the seat or
lean against the dashboard.

Child restraint systems
Points to remember
Studies have shown that installing a child restraint on a rear seat is
safer than installing one to the front passenger seat.
●Choose a child restraint system appropriate to the age and size of
the child.
●For installation details, follow the instructions provided with the
child restraint system.
General installation instructions are provided in this manual.
(→P. 142)
●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 installation.
●Toyota recommends that you use a child restraint system which
conforms to the regulation “ECE No.44”.

according to the regulation ECE No.44:
Group 0: Up to 10 kg (22 lb.) (0 - 9 months)

■When installing the child restraint system on the front passenger seat
When you have to use a child restraint system on the front passenger seat,
adjust the following:
■Selecting an appropriate child restraint system
●Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
●If a child is too large for a child restraint system, sit the child on a rear
seat and use the vehicle's seat belt. (→P. 72)
CAUTION
■Using a child restraint system
The use of a child restraint system not suitable for the vehicle may not prop-
erly secure the infant or child. It may result in death or serious injury (in the
event of sudden braking or an accident).
■Child restraint precautions
●For effective protection in automobile accidents and sudden stops, a child
must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system
depending on the age and size of the child. Holding a child in your arms is
not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, the child can be
crushed against the windshield, or between you and the vehicle's interior.
●Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that con-
forms to the size of the child, installed on the rear seat. According to acci-
dent statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat
than in the front seat.
●The seat cushion to the fully rearward
position
●The seatback to the most upright posi-
tion
