For the safety of the vehicle occu-
pants, the vehicle is equipped with
two seat belts. However, they can
only provide effective protection
when worn correctly.
Before a journey, always make sure
that all occupants have fastened
their seat belts. The airbags sup-
plement the seat belts as an addi-
tional safety device. The airbags
are not a substitute for the seat
belts.
All belt fastening points are
designed to achieve the best possi-
ble protective effe ct of the seat
belts with proper use of the seat
belts and correct seat setting.
Notes on sitting safely, see page

Seat belts
General
Safety notes
WA R N I N G
Never restrain more than one person
with each seat belt, otherwise the pro- tective effect of the seat belt is no
longer guaranteed. There is a danger
of injury or even death. Only restrain one person with each seat belt. Do
not allow infants and children to travel
on the lap of another occupant.
Instead, secure the infant or child in a child restraint system intended for this
purpose.
WA R N I N G
The protective function of the seat
belts may be limited or may even fail
completely if the seat belts are worn incorrectly. If a seat belt is not worn
correctly, additional injuries can be
caused, for example in the event of an accident or when braking or carry-
ing out evasive manoeuvres. There is
a danger of injury or even death.
Make sure that al l vehicle occupants have fastened their seat belts cor-
rectly.
WA R N I N G
Seat belts are designed to bear upon
the bony structure of the body and
should be worn low across the front of the pelvis, or the pelvis, chest and
shoulders, as applicable. Wearing the
lap section of the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection for
which they have been designed. A
slack belt will greatly reduce the pro- tection afforded to the wearer.
1223-1. CONTROLS
WA R N I N G
The seat belts are designed to protect
persons of average adult height and
weight. A child which is 150 cm or
shorter should be sat in an appropri- ately sized child restraint system,
such as a Toyota genuine child
restraint system. Do not allow a child to be unrestrained in the vehicle while
it is moving, as doing so is extremely
dangerous.
WA R N I N G
Never leave a child unattended in the
vehicle.
When parking the vehicle, turn the
engine switch off, exit the vehicle with
the child and lock the doors. Even if it
is just for a short time, leaving a child in the vehicle can be extremely dan-
gerous for the following reasons:
●When the vehicle is parked under
direct sunlight, the temperature
inside the vehicle can increase to over 50°C, even in winter. In this sit-
uation, occupants may suffer from
dehydration or heatstroke.
●If a switch is operated accidentally,
it may lead to unexpected injuries.
●Do not allow a child to open and
close the doors. When closing a door, be careful so that the child’s
hands and feet to not get caught in
the door.
●Do not allow a child to put their head or limbs out of the door win-
dow and be sure that they are clear
of the window before operating the power window switch.
Important considerations
Safety notes
WA R N I N G
Unsupervised children or pets in the vehicle can set the vehicle in motion
and endanger themselves or other
road users, for example by the follow- ing actions:
●Pressing the start/stop button.
●Release the parking brake.
●Opening and closing doors or win-
dows.
●Engaging selector lever position N.
●Operating vehicle equipment.
There is a risk of accidents or injury.
Do not leave children or pets unsu- pervised in the vehicle. When leaving
the vehicle, take the remote control
with you and lock the vehicle.
WA R N I N G
Hot vehicles can have fatal conse-
quences, in particular for children and
pets. There is a risk of injury or even death. Do not leave anyone unsuper-
vised in the vehicle, especially chil-
dren and pets.

When using a child restraint system
on the front passenger seat, make
sure that the front and side airbags
on the passenger side are deacti-
vated. Front passenger airbags can
only be deactivated with the key
switch for front passenger airbags,
see page 202.
Appropriate child restraint systems
for every age and weight class are
available from any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Please comply with the operating
and safety instructions provided by
the child restraint system manufac-
turer when selecting, attaching and
using child restraint systems.
WA R N I N G
Child restraint systems and their parts
can get very hot when exposed to
direct sunlight. Contact with hot parts can cause burns. There is a risk of
injury. Do not expose the child
restraint system to direct sunlight. Cover the child restraint system if
necessary. It may be necessary to
allow the child restraint system to cool
down before strapping a child in. Do not leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle.
WA R N I N G
Children under 150 cm, 5 ft tall cannot
wear the seat belt correctly without
using additional child restraint sys- tems. The protective function of the
seat belts may be limited or may even
fail completely if the seat belts are worn incorrectly. If a seat belt is not
worn correctly, additional injuries can
be caused, for example in the event of an accident or when braking or car-
rying out evasive manoeuvres. There
is a risk of injury or even death. Chil-
dren under 150 cm, 5 ft tall must be secured in suitable child restraint sys-
tems.

Children less than 150 cm, 5 ft in height cannot wear the seat belt cor-
rectly without using additional child
restraint systems. The protective function of the seat belts may be lim-

seat belts are worn incorrectly. If a seat belt is not worn correctly, addi-
tional injuries can be caused, for
example in the event of an accident or braking and evasive manoeuvres.

Please note the following warning
because your vehicle has been
equipped with a front airbag for the
front passenger’s seat that cannot
be deactivated:
Before fitting a child restraint on the

Safety notes
WA R N I N G
If child restraint systems and their
attachment system s have been dam- aged or subjected to stresses in an
accident, their protective function may
be limited or may fail completely. A child might not be adequately
restrained, for example in the event of
an accident, braking or evasive
manoeuvres. There is a risk of injury or even death. Child restraint systems
that are damaged or have been sub-
jected to stresses in an accident must not be used further. If attachment sys-
tems have been damaged or sub-
jected to stresses in an accident, have them checked and replaced by
any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer and renewed if neces-
sary.
WA R N I N G
If the seat is not adjusted properly or the child seat has been installed
incorrectly, the chil d restraint system
may have limited stability or may not be stable at all. There is a risk of
injury or even death. Make sure that
the child restraint system rests firmly against the backrest. Wherever possi-
ble, adapt the backrest angle of all the
relevant seat backrests and adjust the seats correctly. Make sure that the
seats and their backrests are correctly
engaged or locked. If possible, adjust the height of the head restraints, or
remove them.
For Australia: In stallation of
