WARNING
■When using a child restraint
system
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so m ay result in
death or serious injury.
●Never install a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front
passenger seat even if the
“PASS AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated. In the event
of an accident, the force of the
rapid inflation of the front pas-
senger airbag can cause death
or serious injury to the child if
the rear-facing child restraint
system is installed on the front
passenger seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint
system may be installed on the
front passenger seat only when
it is unavoidable. A child
restraint system that requires a
top tether strap should not be
used in the front passenger seat
since there is no top tether strap
anchor for the front passenger
seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint
system may be installed on the
front passenger seat only when
it is unavoidable. When install-
ing a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front
passenger seat, raise the seat-
back as much as possible, and
move the seat to the rearmost
position, even i f the “PASS AIR
BAG OFF” indicator light is illu-
minated.
If the head restraint interferes with
the installation of the child
restraint system, and the head
restraint can be removed, remove
the head restraint.
If the head restraint cannot be
removed, raise it to the uppermost
position.

■Automatic Collision Notifi-
cation
In case of either airbag deploy-
ment or severe rear-end colli-
sion, the system is designed to
automatically call the response
center. The responding agent
receives the vehicle’s location
and attempts to speak with the
vehicle occupants to assess the
level of emergency. If the occu-
pants are unable to communi-
cate, the agent automatically
treats the call as an emergency,
contacts the nearest emer-
gency services provider to
describe the situation, and
requests that assistance be sent
to the location.
■Stolen Vehicle Location
If your vehicle is stolen, Safety
Connect can work with local
authorities to assist them in
locating and recovering the
vehicle. After filing a police
report, call the Customer Experi-
ence Center at 1-800-331-4331
in the United States,
1-877-855-8377 in Puerto Rico
or 1-888-869-6828 in Canada,
and follow the prompts for
Safety Connect to initiate this
service.
In addition to assisting law
enforcement with recovery of a
stolen vehicle, Safety-Con-
nect-equipped vehicle location
data may, under certain circum-
stances, be shared with third
parties to locate your vehicle.
Further information is available
at Toyota.com in the United
States, Toyotapr.com in Puerto
Rico and Toyota.ca in Canada.

ton (“SOS”)

response center. The answer-
ing agent will determine your
