641-2. Child safety
HILUX_OM_OM0K375E_(EE)
Riding with children
●It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats (if equipped) to
avoid accidental contact with the shift lever, wiper switch etc.
● Use the rear door child-protector lock (double-cab models only) or
the window lock switch (vehicles with power windows) to avoid chil-
dren opening the door while driving or operating the power window
accidentally.
● Do not let small children operate equipment which may catch or
pinch body parts, such as the power window (if equipped), hood,
tailgate (if equipped), seats etc.
Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehi-
cle.
Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the
child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat
belt.
WARNING
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to
have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with
the windows or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or
extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■ Caution while driving
● Do not drive with the tailgate open.
● Do not get on the rear step bumper.
■ When opening or closing the tailgate
● Check the safety of the surrounding area, and be careful not to catch fin-
gers etc. in the tailgate.
● Do not allow a child to open or close the tailgate. Doing so may cause the
child’s hand, head, arm or neck to be caught in the tailgate, resulting in
death or serious injury.
● On an incline, it may be more difficult to open or close the tailgate than on
a level surface.
Also, the tailgate may suddenly open or close. Be careful not to catch fin-
gers etc. in the tailgate.
● When pulling the handle or releasing the support stays, hold and operate
them properly. Failure to do so may cause the hands etc. to be caught,
resulting in serious injury or an unexpected accident.
● Be careful when opening or closing the tailgate in windy weather, as it may
forcefully move.
● After closing the tailgate, make sure it is securely locked.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the rear step bumper
Do not allow more than one person to get on the rear step bumper at a time.
■ Handling of the tailgate (vehicles with rear bumper)
If the support stays are removed, the tailgate comes into contact with the
rear bumper and may be damaged.
