For safe driving
Adjust  the  angle  of  the  seat-
back  so  that  you  are  sitting
straight  up  and  so  that  you  do
not  have  to  lean  forward  to
steer. (P.   1 3 9 )
Adjust  the  seat  so  that  you  can
depress the  pedals  fully  and so
that  your  arms  bend  slightly  at
the  elbow  when  gripping  the
steering wheel. ( P. 139, 149)
Lock the head restraint in place with the center of the head restraint
closest to the top of your ears. ( P.   1 4 5 )
Wear the seat belt correctly. ( P.   3 0 )
Make sure that all occupants are  wearing their seat belts before driv-
ing the vehicle. ( P.   3 0 )
Use  a  child  restraint  system  appropriate  for  the  child  until  th e  child
becomes large enough to properly  wear the vehicle’s seat belt. 
(  P. 54)
Make sure that you can see rearward of the vehicle clearly, by adjust-
ing the inside and outside rear view mirrors properly. ( P. 151, 154)
For  safe  driving,  adjust  the  seat  and  mirror  to  an  appropriate
position before driving.

■Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also
lock  if  you  lean forward too  quickly. A slow,  easy motion  will  allow  the  belt to
extend so that you can move around fully. 
■ Automatic locking  retractor (ALR)
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is completely extended and then retracted
even slightly, the belt is locked in that position and cannot be extended. This
feature is used to hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly. To free the belt
again, fully retract the belt and then pull the belt out once m ore. (P. 58)
■ Child seat belt usage
The  seat  belts  of  your  vehicle  were  principally  designed  for  persons  of  adult
size. 
●Use  a  child  restraint  system  appropriate  for  the  child,  until  the  child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. ( P. 54)
● When  the  child  becomes  large  enough  to  properly  wear  the  vehicle’s  seat
belt, follow the instructions regarding seat belt usage. ( P. 30)
■ Replacing the belt after the pr etensioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensi oner will activate for
the first collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent collisions.
■ Seat belt extender
If  your  seat  belts  cannot  be  fastened
securely  because  they  are  not  long
enough, a personalized seat belt extender
is  available  from  your  Toyota  dealer  free
of charge.

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  position,  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
■ People suffering illness
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way.  (P. 30)
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat
belt in the proper way. ( P. 30)
Women  who  are  pregnant  should  posi-
tion  the  lap  belt  as  low  as  possible  over
the  hips  in  the  same  manner  as  other
occupants,  extending  the  shoulder  belt
completely  over  the  shoulder  and  avoid-
ing  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  colli-
sion.

WARNING
■When children are in the vehicle
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.
■ Seat belt pretensioners (front seats)
● Do  not  place  anything,  such  as  a  cushion,  on  the  front  passenger’s  seat.
Doing so will disperse the passenger’s weight, which prevents the sensor
from  detecting  the  passenger’s  weight  properly. As  a  result,  the  seat  belt
pretensioner for the front passenger’s seat may not activate in the event of
a collision.
● If  the  pretensioner  has  activated,  the  SRS  warning  light  will  come  on.  In
that  case,  the  seat  belt  cannot  be  used  again  and  must  be  replaced  at
your Toyota dealer.
■ Adjustable shoulder anchor (front seats)
Always make sure the shoulder belt is positioned across the cen ter of your
shoulder.  The  belt  should  be  kept  away  from  your  neck,  but  not  falling  off
your shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce the amount of protection in an
accident and cause death or serious injuries in the event of a sudden stop,
sudden swerve or an accident. ( P. 31)
■ Seat belt damage and wear
● Do  not  damage  the  seat  belts  by  allowing  the  belt,  plate,  or  buckle  to  be
jammed in the door.
● Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose
parts.  Do  not  use  a  damaged  seat  belt  until  it  is  replaced.  Damaged  seat
belts cannot protect an occupant from death or serious injury.
● Ensure that the belt and plate are locked and the belt is not t wisted.
If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately conta ct your Toyota
dealer.
● Replace  the  seat  assembly,  including  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  dispo se  of  the
seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Toyota dealer.
Inappropriate  handling  of  the  pretensioner  may  prevent  it  from  operating
properly, resulting in death or serious injury.

WARNING
■Using a seat belt extender
● Do  not  wear  the  seat  belt  extender  if  you  can  fasten  the  seat  belt  without
the extender.
● Do  not  use  the  seat  belt  extender  when  installing  a  child  restr aint  system
because the belt will not securely hold the child restraint sys tem, increas-
ing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an acci dent.
● The  personalized  extender  may  not  be  safe  on  another  vehicle,  when
used  by  another  person,  or  at  a  different  seating  position  other  than  the
one originally intended.
NOTICE
■When using a seat belt extender
When  releasing  the  seat  belt,  press  on  the  buckle  release  butto n  on  the
extender, not on the seat belt.
This helps prevent damage to the vehicle interior and the extender itself. 

401-1. For safe use
WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
● The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable f orce, and
can cause  death  or  serious  injury especially if the front  passenger  is very
close to the airbag. The front passenger seat should be as far from the air-
bag  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 airbag. An infant or child who  is too small
to  use  a  seat  belt  should  be  properly  secured  using  a  child  restraint  sys-
tem. 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. 54)
●Do  not  sit  on  the  edge  of  the  seat  or
lean against the dashboard.
● Do  not  allow  a  child  to  stand  in  front  of
the  SRS  front  passenger  airbag  unit  or
sit on the knees of a front passenger.
● Do not allow the front seat occupants to
hold items on their knees.
● Do  not  lean  against  the  door,  the  roof
side  rail  or  the  front,  side  and  rear  pil-
lars.
