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
and safety instructions provided by
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,
5 ft in height must be secured in suita-
ble child restraint systems.

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.

rectly if the need arises.
The indicator lamp for the front pas-
senger airbags in the roof lining
shows the operating status of the

system is triggered, it creates
deformation space underneath the
bonnet for the subsequent head
impact. Indicator lamp for front pas-
