WARNING
■When using a child restraint system
● 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.
● Use child restraint system suitable to the age and size of the child and
install it to the rear seat.
● Vehicles with SRS front passenger air-
bag: Only put a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front seat when
unavoidable. When installing a forward-
facing child restraint on the front pas-
senger 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).
● Vehicles with SRS side and curtain
shield airbags: Do not allow the child to
lean his/her head or any part of his/her
body against the door or the area of the
seat, front or rear pi llars, or roof side
rails from which the SRS side airbags or
SRS curtain shield airbags deploy even
if the child is seated in the child restraint
system. It is dangerous if the SRS side
airbags and curtain shield airbags
inflate, and the impact could cause
death or serious injury to the child.
● Double-cab models: If the driver’s seat
interferes with the child restraint system
and prevents it from being attached cor-
rectly, 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). ( P. 8 0 , 8 8 )

If your child restraint system is of “universal” category, you can
install it on the positions mentioned by U or UF in the table below
(UF is for forward-facing child restraint systems only). Child
restraint systems category and mass group can be found in the
child restraint system manual.
If your child restraint system is not of the “universal” category (or if
you cannot find information in the table below), please refer to the

Double-cab models: When securing some types of child restraint sys-
tems in rear seat, it may not be possible to properly use the seat belts
in positions next to the child restraint without interfering with it or
affecting seat belt effectiveness. Be sure your seat belt fits snugly
across your shoulder and low on your hips. If it does not, or if it inter-
feres with the child restraint, move to a different position. Failure to do
so may result in death or serious injury.

801-2. Child safety
HILUX_OM_OM0K322E_(EE)
The child restraint systems mentioned in the table may not be avail-
able outside the EU area.
● Double-cab models: When installing a child restraint in the rear
seats, adjust the front seat so that it does not interfere with the child
or child restraint system.
● When installing a child seat with support base, if the child seat inter-
feres with the seatback when latching it into the support base,
adjust the seatback rearward until there is no interference.
● When installing a forward-fac-
ing child seat, if there is a gap
between the child seat and the
seatback, adjust the seatback
angle until good contact is
achieved.
● If the seat belt shoulder anchor
is ahead of the child seat belt
guide, move the seat cushion
forward.
● When installing a junior seat, if the child in your child restraint sys-
tem is in a very upright position, adjust the seatback angle to the
most comfortable position. And if the seat belt shoulder anchor is
ahead of the child seat belt guide, move the seat cushion forward.
