QRecommended child restraint systems and Compatibility table
The child restraint systems mentioned in the table may not be a vail-

When securing some types of child restraint systems in rear sea t, 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
effectiveness. Be sure your seat belt fits snugly across your s houl-
der and low on your hips. If it does not, or if it interferes w ith the
child restraint, move to a different position.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

OWhen installing a child restraint in the rear seats, adjust the front
seat so that it does not interfere with the child or child rest raint
system.
O 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 rearward until there is no interferen ce.
O If the seat belt shoulder
anchor is ahead of the child
seat belt guide, move the
seat cushion forward.
O When installing a junior seat, if the child in your child restraint
system is in a very upright position, adjust the seatback angle to
the most comfortable position. And if the seat belt shoulder

ous possible installation positions, or check the compatibility after
asking the retailer of the child restraint system. ( P. 6 0 , 6 1 )

to the rebound of the seat cushion. Release the buckle while ho lding
down the child restraint system.
Since the seat belt automatically reels itself, slowly return i t to the stow-
ing position.
Q When installing a child restraint system
You may need a locking clip to install the child restraint syst em. Follow the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of the system. If you r child restraint
system does not provide a locking clip, you can purchase the fo llowing item
from any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repair er, or any reli-
able repairer: Locking clip for child restraint system
(Part No. 73119-22010)
WARNING
Q When installing a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
O 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 inju-
ries that could result in death. If this occurs and the buckle cannot be
unfastened, scissors should be used to cut the belt.
O Ensure that the belt and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is not
twisted.
O Shake the child restraint system left and right, and forward and backward
to ensure that it has been securely installed.
O After securing a child restraint system, never adjust the seat.
O 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.
O Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint system
manufacturer.
