For safety and security
■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 seatback angle to the
most upright position.
When installing a forward-facing child
seat, if there is a gap between the child
seat and the seatback, adjust the seat-
back angle until good contact is
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.52) 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.

WARNING
●Use child restraint system suitable to the age and size of the child and
install it to the rear seat.
●If the driver’s seat interferes with
the child restraint system and pre- vents it from being attached cor-rectly, attach the child restraint
system to the right-hand rear seat (left-hand drive vehicles) or the left-hand rear seat (right-hand drive
vehicles). ( P. 5 5 )

Before driving
WARNING
●When exiting the vehicle, turn the engine switch to OFF, carry the key
and exit the vehicle along with the child. There may be accidental operation, due to mischief, etc., that
may possibly lead to an accident.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the canvas top
●Do not sit or place excessive weight on the canvas top. It may cause of damage of canvas top operation.
●Remove any standing water from the outer canvas and dry the sur-
face before opening roof. The water can potentially enter into the vehicle and may cause interior water dam-
age.
●Do not leave the canvas top open
for long term, such as longer than one day. Doing so may lead to dis-coloration in the folds of the outer
canvas fabric and possibility of irreparable creasing of the outer
canvas fabric.
●To prevent from damaging the can-
vas top material, do not operate the canvas top when the temperature is below 0°C (32°F) or the outer can-
vas fabric is frozen. If necessary to do so, warm the vehicle in a heated garage prior to operation the can-
vas top mechanism.
●Remove ice and snow before open-
ing the canvas top. Also, do not use sharp-edged objects or anything that may cause a scratch to the
outer canvas fabric.
●Do not put any objects on the guide
rail and surround area. It may cause of jamming for sliding canvas top.

equipped.
• If there is a lot of snow or ice on the vehicle, particularly around the wheels or wheel housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is extremely higher than the specified level.
●When tire inflation pressure declines rapidly for example when a tire has
burst, the warning may not function.
■Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system
The warning of the tire pressure warning
system will change in accordance with driving conditions. For this reason, the system may give a warning even if the
tire pressure does not reach a low enough level, or if the pressure is higher than the pressure that was adjusted to
when the system was initialized.
■The tire pressure warning sys-
tem must be init ialized in the
following circumstances:
When rotating front and rear tires
which have different tire inflation
pressures.
When changing the tire size.
When the tire inflation pressure
is changed such as when chang-
ing traveling speed or load
weight.
When the tire pressure warning
system is initialized, the current tire
inflation pressure is set as the
benchmark pressure.
■How to initialize the tire pres-
sure warning system
1 Park the vehicle in a safe place
and turn the engine switch off.
Initialization cannot be performed while the vehicle is moving.
2 Adjust the tire inflation pressure
to the specified cold tire inflation
pressure level. ( P.350)
Make sure to adjust the tire pressure to
the specified cold tire inflation pressure level. The tire pressure warning system will operate based on this pressure
level.
3 Turn the engine switch to ON.

■Effects of incorrect tire inflation pressure
Driving with incorrect tire inflation pres- sure may result in the following:
●Reduced safety
●Damage to the drivetrain
●Reduced tire life due to wear
●Reduced fuel economy
●Reduced driving comfort and poor
handling
If a tire needs frequent inflating, have it checked by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Instructions for checking tire infla-tion pressure
When checking tire inflation pressure, observe the following:
●Check only when the tires are cold.If your vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours or has not been driven
for more than 1.5 km or 1 mile, you will get an accurate cold tire inflation pressure reading.
●Always use a tire pressure gauge.It is difficult to judge if a tire is properly
inflated based only on its appearance.
●It is normal for the tire inflation pres-
sure to be higher after driving as heat is generated in the tire. Do not reduce
tire inflation pressure after driving.
●Passengers and luggage weight
should be placed so that the vehicle is balanced.
Tire inflation pressure
Make sure to maintain proper
tire inflation pressure. Tire
inflation pressure should be
checked at least once per
month. However, Toyota rec-
ommends that tire inflation
pressure be checked once
every two weeks. ( P.350)

■Proper inflation is critical to save

Keep your tires properly inflated. If the tires are not properly inflated,
the following conditions may occur which could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury:
