1-3. Child Restraint
Child-Restraint Precautions
Whatever child-restraint system you consider, please pick the appro-
priate one for the age and size of the child, obey the law and follow
the instructions that come wit h the individual child-restraint system.
A child who has outgrown child-re straint systems should sit in the rear
and use seat belts, both lap and shoulder. If the shoulder belt crosses
the neck or face, move the child closer to the center of the ve hicle in
the outboard seats, and towards the buckle on the right if the child is
seated on the center seat.
Statistics confirm that the rear seat is the best place for all children up
to 12 years of age, and more so w ith a supplemental restraint system
(air bags).
A rear-facing child-restraint system should NEVER be used on th e
front seat with the air bag syst em activated. The front passeng er’s
seat is also the leas t preferred seat for other child-restraint systems.
To reduce the chance of injuries caused by deployment of the front
passenger air bag, the front passenger occupant classification sensor
works as a part of the supplemen tal restraint system. This system
deactivates the front passenger front and side air bags and als o the
front passenger seat belt pretens ioner system when the front passen-
ger air bag deactivation ind icator light illuminates.
When an infant or small child sits on the front passenger seat, the sys-
tem shuts off the front passeng er front and side air bags and seat belt
pretensioner system, so make sur e the front passenger air bag deac-
tivation indicator light illuminates.
Toyota strongly urges the use of child-restraint systems for chil-
dren small enough to use them.
You are required by law to use a child-restraint system for chil-
dren in the U. S. and Canada.
Check your local and state or provincial laws for specific
requirements regarding the safety of children riding in your
vehicle.
