Riding with children
Observe the following pre-
cautions when children are
in the vehicle.
Use a child restraint system
appropriate for the child,
until the child becomes
large enough to properly
wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact
with the shift lever, wiper
switch, etc.
 Use the rear door child-pro-
tector lock or the window
lock switch to avoid children
opening the door while driv-
ing or operating the power
window accidentally.
( P.116, 136)
 Do not let small children
operate equipment which
may catch or pinch body
parts, such as the power
window, hood, trunk, seats,
etc.
WARNING
■When children are in the vehi-
cle
Never leave children unattended
in the vehicle, and never allow
children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the
vehicle or shift the vehicle into
neutral. There is also a danger
that children ma y injure them-
selves by playing with the win-
dows, the moon roof (if equipped)
or other features of the vehicle. In
addition, heat build-up or
extremely cold temperatures
inside the vehicle can be fatal to
children.

WARNING
●For effective protection in auto-
mobile accidents and sudden
stops, a child must be properly
restrained, using a seat belt or
child restraint system which is
correctly installed. For installa-
tion details, ref er to the opera-
tion manual enclosed with the
child restraint system. General
installation instruction is pro-
vided 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 some-
one else’s arms is not a substi-
tute for a child restraint system.
In an accident, the child can be
crushed against the windshield
or between the holder and the
interior of the vehicle.
■Handling the child restraint
system
If the child restraint system is not
properly fixed in place, the child or
other passengers may be seri-
ously 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 possib le that the child
restraint system has damage
that is not readily visible. In
such cases, do not reuse the
restraint system.
●For Puerto Rico: Depending on
the child restraint system, instal-
lation may be difficult or impos-
sible. In those cases, check
whether the child restraint sys-
tem is suitable for installment in
the vehicle. (
P.55) 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 operation manual
enclosed with the child restraint
system.
●Except for Puerto Rico: Make
sure you have complied with all
installation instructions provided
with the child restraint system
manufacturer and that the sys-
tem is properly secured.
●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 trunk.

 Move the front seat fully rear-
ward.
 If the passenger seat height can be adjusted, Adjust the
seat height to the upper most
position.
 Adjust the seatback angle to
the most upright position.
If there is a gap between the child
seat and the seatb ack, adjust the
seatback angle until good contact is
achieved.
 If the head restraint interferes
with the child restraint system
installation and the head
restraint can be removed,
remove the head restraint.
Otherwise, put the head restraint in
the upper mo st position.

position with child restraint sys-
tems].
■Before confirming the com-
patibility of each seating
position with child restraint
systems
1 Checking the child restraint
system standards.

WARNING
●When a booster 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.
●Use child restraint system suit-
able 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 prevents it from being
attached correctly, attach the
child restraint system to the
right-hand rear seat.
●Adjust the front passenger seat
so that it does no t interfere with
the child restraint system.

able outside the LATIN area.
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 effective-
ness. 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 serious 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 seat-
back when latching it into the
support base, adjust the seat-
back rearward until there is no
interference.
 If the seat belt shoulder
anchor is ahead of the child
seat belt guide, move the seat
cushion forward. 
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 anchor
is ahead of the child seat belt
guide, move the seat cushion
forward.
A child restraint system for a
small child or baby must itself be
properly restrained on the seat
with the lap portion of the
lap/shoulder belt.
■Installing child restraint
system using a seat belt
(child restraint lock func-
tion belt)
Install the child restraint system
in accordance to the operation
manual enclosed with the child
restraint system.
For Puerto Rico: If the child
restraint system on hand is not
within the “universal” category
