WARNING
■For safe driving
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 n ot p la ce a cu s hi on b et we en t he
driver or passenger and the seatback.A cushion may prevent correct pos-
ture from being achieved, and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
●Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed under 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.

Seat belts
Make sure that all occupants
are wearing their seat belts
before driving the vehicle.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of injury in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
■Wearing a seat belt
●Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
●Always wear a seat belt properly.
●Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt for more than one person at
once, including children.
●Toyota recommends that children
be seated in the rear seat and always use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
●To achieve a proper seating posi-tion, do not recline the seat more
than necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting up straight and well back
in the seats.
●Do not wear the shoulder belt under
your arm.
●Always wear your seat belt low and
snug across your hips.
■Pregnant women
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way. ( P. 3 6 )
Women who are pregnant should position the lap belt as low as possi-ble over the hips in the same manner
as other occupants, extending the shoulder belt completely over the 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 could suffer death or serious injury as a result of sudden
braking or a collision.
■People suffering illness
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way. ( P. 3 6 )
■When children are in the vehicle
 P. 6 2
■Seat belt damage and wear
●Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to
be jammed in the door.

1-1. For safe use
Extend the shoulder belt so that
it comes fully over the shoulder,
but does not come into contact
with the neck or slide off the
shoulder.
 Position the lap belt as low as
possible over the hips.
 Adjust the position of the
seatback. Sit up straight and well
back in the seat.
 Do not twist the seat belt.
■Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle were prin- cipally designed for persons of adult
size.
●Use a child restraint system appropri-
ate for the child, until the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. ( P.49)
●When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s
seat belt, follow the instructions regarding seat belt usage. ( P.35)
■Seat belt regulations
If seat belt regulations exist in the coun-
try where you reside, please contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer for seat belt replacement or installation.
1 To fasten the seat belt, push the
plate into the buckle until a click
sound is heard.
WARNING
●Inspect the seat belt system period- ically. Check for cuts, fraying, and
loose parts. Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Dam-aged seat belts cannot protect an
occupant from death or serious injury.
●Ensure that the belt and plate are locked and the belt is not twisted.If the seat belt does not function
correctly, immediately contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
●Replace the seat assembly, includ-
ing the belts, if your vehicle has been involved in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage.
●Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of
the seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by any autho-rized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. Inappropriate handling may lead to incorrect operation.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions
regarding the SRS airbags. Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
●The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts
properly. The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat
belts.
●The SRS driver airbag deploys with
considerable force, and can cause death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the air-
bag.
Since the risk zone for the driver’s air-
bag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.) of
inflation, placing yourself 250 mm (10
in.) from your driver airbag provides
you with a clear margin of safety. This
distance is measured from the center
of the steering wheel to your breast-
bone. If you sit less than 250 mm (10
in.) away now, you can change your
driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the ped-als comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat.Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250
mm (10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, sim-ply by reclining the back of the seat
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm,
non-slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air-bag toward your chest instead of
your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as rec-
ommended above, while still main- taining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the
instrument panel controls.
●The SRS front passenger airbag
also deploys with considerable force, and can cause death or seri-ous injury especially if the front pas-
senger is very close to the airbag. The front passenger seat should be as far from the airbag as possible
with the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits upright.
●Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or seriously injured by a deploying air-
bag. An infant or child who is too small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child
restraint system. Toyota strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats
of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are safer for infants and children than the
front passenger seat. ( P. 4 9 )

1-2. Child safety
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system in a rear seat. In the event that the rear seat cannot be
used, the front seat can be used as long as the airbag manual on-off sys-tem is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag deployment (inflation) may cause
serious injury or even death.
■When a child restraint system is
not installed on the front passen- ger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off
system is set to “ON”. If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident,
which may result in serious injury or even death.
Riding with children
Observe the following precau-
tions when children are in the
vehicle.
Use a child restraint system
appropriate for the child, until
the child becomes large
enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belt.
 It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact with
the shift lever, wiper switch,
etc.
 Use the rear door child-protec-
tor lock or the window lock
switch to avoid children open-
ing the door while driving or
operating the power window
accidentally. ( P.139, 171)
Do not let small children oper-
ate equipment which may
catch or pinch body parts,
such as the power window,
hood, back door, seats, etc.
WARNING
■When children are in the vehicle
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehi- cle 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.

1-2. Child safety
■When installing a child
restraint system to a front pas-
senger seat
For the safety of a child, install a
child restraint system to a rear seat.
When installing a child restraint
system to a front passenger seat is
unavoidable, adjust the seat as fol-
lows and install the child restraint
system:
 Move the front seat fully rear-
ward.
 Adjust the seat height to the
upper most position.
 Adjust the seatback angle to the
most upright position.
When installing a forward-facing child
WARNING
●For effective protection in automo- bile accidents and sudden stops, a
child must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system which is correctly installed.
For installation details, refer to the operation manual enclosed with the child restraint system. General
installation instruction is provided in this manual.
●Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that conforms to the weight and size of
the child, installed on the rear seat. According to accident statistics, the child is safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.
●Holding a child in your or someone else’s arms is not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an acci-
dent, the child can be crushed against the windshield or between the holder and the interior of the
vehicle.
■Handling the child restraint sys-
tem
If the child restraint system is not properly fixed in place, the child or
other passengers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving, or
an accident.
●If the vehicle were to receive a
strong impact from an accident, etc., it is possible that the child restraint system has damage that is
not readily visible. In such cases, do not reuse the restraint system.
●Depending on the child restraint system, installation may be difficult or impossible. In those cases,
check whether the child restraint system is suitable for installment in the vehicle. ( P.53) Be sure to
install and observe the usage rules after carefully reading the child restraint system fixing method in
this manual, as well as the opera- tion manual enclosed with the child restraint system.
●Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat even if
it is not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the passenger compartment.
●If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the
vehicle or store it securely in the luggage compartment.
