■Recommended child restraint systems information
*: Be sure to attach the seat belt through the SecureGuard.
The child restraint systems mentioned in the table may not be available out-
side the EU countries and United Kingdom.
When securing some types of child
restraint systems in rear seat, it
may not be possible to properly use
the seat belts in positions next to
the child restraint without interfering
with it or affecting seat belt effec-
tiveness. Be sure your seat belt fits
snugly across your shoulder and
low on your hips. If it does not, or if
it interferes with the child restraint,
move to a different position. Failure
to do so may result in death or seri-
ous injury.
 When installing a child restraint
in the rear seats, adjust the front
seat so that it does not interfere
with the child or child restraint
system.
 When installing a child seat with
support base, if the child seat
interferes with the seatback
when latching it into the support
base, adjust the seatback rear-
ward until there is no interfer-
ence.
 If the seat belt shoulder anchor is
ahead of the child seat belt
guide, move the seat cushion
forward.

For safety and security
1If installing the child restraint
system to the front passenger
seat is unavoidable, refer to
P.50 for front passenger seat
adjustment.
2 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 seatback angle until
good contact is achieved.
3 If the head restraint interferes
with the child restraint system
and the head restraint can be
removed, remove the head
restraint. Otherwise, put the
head restraint in the upper most
position. ( P. 2 1 1 )
4 Run the seat belt through the
child restraint system and insert
the plate into the buckle. Make
sure that the belt is not twisted.
Securely fix the seat belt to the
child restraint system in accor-
dance to the directions enclosed
with the child restraint system.
5 If your child restraint system is
not equipped with a lock-off (a
seat belt locking feature),
s e c u r e t h e c h i l d r e s t r a i n t s y s t e m
using a locking clip.
6 After installing the child restraint
system, rock it back and forth to
ensure that it is installed
securely. ( P. 6 2 )
■Removing a child restraint
system installed with a seat
belt
Press the buckle release button
and fully retract the seat belt.
When releasing the buckle, the child
restraint system may spring up due to
the rebound of the seat cushion.
Release the buckle while holding down
the child restraint system.
Since the seat belt automatically reels
itself, slowly return it to the stowing
position.
■When installing a child restraint system
You may need a locking clip to install the child restraint system. Follow the
instructions provided by the manufac- turer of the system. If your child restraint system does not provide a locking clip,
you can purchase the following item from any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer: Locking clip for child restraint system

WARNING
■When installing a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes twisted around a child’s
neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries that could result in death. If this occurs and
the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used to cut the belt.
●Ensure that the belt and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is
not twisted.
●Shake the child restraint system left
and right, and forward and back- ward to ensure that it has been securely installed.
●After securing a child restraint sys-tem, never adjust the seat.
●When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder
belt is positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be kept away from the
child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s shoulder.
●Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint sys-tem manufacturer.
