WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Do not adjust the position of the
driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between the
driver or passenger and the seat - back. A cushion may prevent cor -
rect posture from being achieved,
and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
●Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed und er the front
seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and stop the seat from
locking in place. This may lead to
an accident and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
●Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads.
●When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start
to feel tired.
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con -
tinue driving and take a break
immediately.

■Wearing a seat belt
●Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
●Always wear a seat belt properly.

●Toyota recommends that children

●Always wear your seat belt low and
snug across your hips.
■Pregnant women

Women who are pregnant should position the lap belt as low as possi -
ble over the hips in the same manner

shoulder and avoiding belt contact
with the rounding of the abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly,
not only the pregnant woman, but also the fetus coul d suffer death or
serious injury as a result of sudden
braking or a collision.
