two seat belts. However, they can
only provide effective protection
when worn correctly.
Before a journey, always make sure
that all occupants have fastened
their seat belts. The airbags sup-
plement the seat belts as an addi-
tional safety device. The airbags
are not a substitute for the seat
belts.
The belt anchorage is suitable for
adults of any stature if the seat is
adjusted correctly.General
Safety notes
WARNING
Never restrain more than one person
with each seat belt, otherwise the pro-
tective effect of the seat belt is no
longer guaranteed. There is a danger
of injury or even death. Only restrain
one person with each seat belt. Do
not allow infants and children to travel
on the lap of another occupant.
Instead, secure the infant or child in a
child restraint system intended for this
purpose.
WARNING
The protective function of the seat
belts may be limited or may even fail
completely if the seat belts are worn
incorrectly. If a seat belt is not worn
correctly, additional injuries can be
caused, for example in the event of
an accident or braking and evasive
manoeuvres. There is a danger of
injury or even death. Make sure that
all vehicle occupants have fastened
their seat belts correctly.
WARNING
Seat belts are designed to bear upon
the body's skeleton and should be
worn low across the front of the pel-
vis, or lie against pelvis, chest and
shoulders, as applicable. Do not route
the lap section of the belt across the
abdomen.
In order to provide the protection for
which they have been designed, the
seat belts should be adjusted to fit as
snugly as possible without being
uncomfortable. A slack belt will
greatly reduce the protection afforded
to the wearer.
Do not allow the seat belt webbing to
come into contact with polishes, oils
and chemicals and particularly battery
acid. It may be safely cleaned with a
mild soap water solution. Replace the
seat belt if the webbing becomes
frayed, contaminated or damaged.
Seat belts should not be worn with
seat belt straps twisted. Each seat
belt assembly must only be used by
one occupant; carrying infants and
children on the occupant's lap is not
permitted.
It is essential to replace the entire belt
assembly if it was being worn by a
vehicle occupant when a severe
impact occurred, even if damage to
the assembly is not obvious.

WARNING
The seat belts are designed to protect
persons of average adult height and
weight. A child which is 150 cm or
shorter should be sat in an appropri-
ately sized child restraint system,
such as a Toyota genuine child
restraint system. Do not allow a child
to be unrestrained in the vehicle while
it is moving, as doing so is extremely
dangerous.
WARNING
Never leave a child unattended in the
vehicle.
When parking the vehicle, turn the
engine switch off, exit the vehicle with
the child and lock the doors. Even if it
is just for a short time, leaving a child
in the vehicle can be extremely dan-
gerous for the following reasons:
●When the vehicle is parked under
direct sunlight, the temperature
inside the vehicle can increase to
over 50°C, even in winter. In this sit-
uation, occupants may suffer from
dehydration or heatstroke.
●If a switch is operated accidentally,
it may lead to unexpected injuries.
●Do not allow a child to open and
close the doors. When closing a
door, be careful so that the child’s
hands and feet to not get caught in
the door.
●Do not allow a child to put their
head or limbs out of the door win-
dow and be sure that they are clear
of the window before operating the
power window switch.
Important considerations
Safety note
WARNING
Unsupervised children or pets in the
vehicle can set the vehicle in motion
and endanger themselves or other
road users, for example by the follow-
ing actions:
●Pressing the start/stop button.
●Release the parking brake.
●Opening and closing doors or win-
dows.
●Engaging selector lever position N.
●Operating vehicle equipment.
There is a risk of accidents or injury.
Do not leave children or pets unsu-
pervised in the vehicle. When leaving
the vehicle, take the remote control

When using a child restraint system
on the front passenger seat, make
sure that the front and side airbags
on the passenger side are deacti-
vated. Front passenger airbags can
only be deactivated with the key
switch for front passenger airbags,
see page 188.Appropriate child restraint systems
for every age and weight class are
available from any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Please comply with the operating

the child restraint system manufac-
turer when selecting, attaching and
using child restraint systems.
WARNING
Children less than 150 cm, 5 ft in
height cannot wear the seat belt cor-
rectly without using additional child
restraint systems. The protective
function of the seat belts may be lim-
ited or may even fail completely if the
seat belts are worn incorrectly. If a
seat belt is not worn correctly, addi-
tional injuries can be caused, for
example in the event of an accident or
braking and evasive manoeuvres.
There is a danger of injury or even
death. Children smaller than 150 cm,

Please note the following warning
because your vehicle has been

front passenger seat, make sure
that the front and side airbags on
the passenger side are disabled.

WARNING
If child restraint systems and their
attachment systems have been dam-
aged or subjected to stresses in an
accident, their protective function may
be limited or may fail completely. A
child might not be adequately
restrained, for example in the event of
an accident or braking and evasive
manoeuvres. There is a danger of
injury or even death. If child restraint
systems and their attachment sys-
tems have been damaged or sub-
jected to stresses in an accident,
have them checked by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer and
renewed if necessary.
WARNING
If the seat adjustment or child seat
installation is incorrect, the child
restraint system may have limited sta-
bility or may not be stable at all. There
is a danger of injury or even death.
Make sure the child restraint system
is firmly positioned against the back-
rest. Wherever possible, adapt the
backrest angle of all the relevant seat
backrests and adjust the seats cor-
rectly. Make sure that the seats and
their backrests are correctly engaged
or locked.

ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it,
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to
the CHILD can occur.
Except for ASEAN countries, South
Africa, Australia and New Zealand
without ISOFIX lower anchorage
and airbag manual on-off switch:
Before installing a universal child
restraint system, move the front
passenger seat as far back as it will
go and adjust it to the upper most
position. This seat position and
height achieves the best possible routing of the belt and protection in
the event of an accident.
If the upper attachment point of the
seat belt is located ahead of the
child seat's belt guide, carefully
move the front passenger seat for-
wards until the best possible belt
guidance is achieved.
With adjustable backrest width:
before fitting a child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger seat,
fully open the backrest width. Do
not change the backrest width from
this point on and do not call up a
memory position.
Note for Australia: ISOFIX child
seats are not permitted for road use
in Australia at the time of printing.
However, also since a change of
the respective regulations is also
expected in the future, lower
ISOFIX anchorages are supplied in
line with applicable ADRs also for
Australia.
