Make sure that you can see the rear of the vehicle clearly by adjusting 
the inside and outside rear view mirrors properly. ( P. 196, 198)
Adjusting the mirrors
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.  
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury. 
● Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.  
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. 
● Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.  
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce 
the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint. 
● Do not place anything under the front seats.  
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat 
tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an acci-
dent and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged. 
● Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads. 
● When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start to 
feel tired.  
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con- 
tinue driving and take a break immediately.

Push the seat belt shoulder 
anchor down while pressing the 
release button. 
Push the seat belt shoulder 
anchor up.

The pretensioners help the seat belts to quickly restrain the occupants 
by retracting the seat belts when the vehicle is subjected to certain 
types of severe frontal or side collision.
The pretensioners do not activate in t he event of a minor frontal impact, a 
minor side impact, a rear impact or a vehicle rollover.

WARNING
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of 
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.  
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury. 
■ Wearing a seat belt 
● Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt. 
● Always wear a seat belt properly. 
● Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt 
for more than one person at once, including children. 
● Toyota recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always 
use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system. 
● To achieve a proper seating position, do not recline the seat more than 
necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting 
up straight and well back in the seats. 
● Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm. 
● Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips. 
■ Pregnant women
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat 
belt in the proper way. ( P. 38) 
Women who are pregnant should posi- 
tion the lap belt as low as possible over 
the hips in the same manner as other
occupants, extending the shoulder belt 
completely over the shoulder and avoid- 
ing belt contact with the rounding of the
abdominal area. 
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not 
only the pregnant woman, but also the
fetus could suffer death or serious injury 
as a result of sudden braking or a colli- 
sion.

WARNING
■People suffering illness 
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way. ( P. 38) 
■ When children are in the vehicle 
 P.  7 7 
■ Seat belt pretensioners 
If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS warning light will come on. In that 
case, the seat belt cannot be used again and must be replaced at any 
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable 
repairer. 
■ Adjustable shoulder anchor (front seats) 
Always make sure the shoulder belt is positioned across the center of your 
shoulder. The belt should be kept away from your neck, but not falling off 
your shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce the amount of protection in an 
accident and cause death or serious injuries in the event of a sudden stop,
sudden swerve or accident. ( P. 39) 
■ Seat belt damage and wear 
● Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be 
jammed in the door. 
● Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose 
parts. Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged seat 
belts cannot protect an occupant from death or serious injury. 
● Ensure that the belt and plate are locked and the belt is not twisted.  
If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. 
● Replace the seat assembly, including the belts, if your vehicle has been 
involved in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage. 
● Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the 
seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by any authorized 
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. Inap-
propriate handling may lead to incorrect operation.
