WARNING
■Front passenger occupant classification system precautions
● Do not recline the front passenger seatback so far that it touches a rear
seat. This may cause “OFF” of the “PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator to
be illuminated, which indicates that the SRS airbags for the front passen-
ger will not activate in the event of a severe accident. If the seatback
touches the rear seat, return the seatback to a position where it does not
touch the rear seat. Keep the front passenger seatback as upright as pos-
sible when the vehicle is moving. Reclining the seatback excessively may
lessen the effectiveness of the seat belt system.
● If an adult sits in the front passenger seat, “ON” of the “PASSENGER AIR
BAG” indicator is illuminated. If “OFF ” of the “PASSENGER AIR BAG” indi-
cator is illuminated, ask the passenger to sit up straight, well back in the
seat, feet on the floor, and with the seat belt worn correctly. If “OFF” of the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator still re mains illuminated, either ask the
passenger to move to the rear seat, or if that is not possible, move the
front passenger seat fully rearward.
● When it is unavoidable to install a forward-facing child restraint system on
the front passenger seat, install the child restraint system on the front pas-
senger seat in the proper order. ( P. 6 5 )
● Do not modify or remove the front seats.
● Do not kick the front passenger seat or subject it to severe impact. Other-
wise, the SRS warning light may come on to indicate a malfunction of the
front passenger occupant classification system. In this case, contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer immediately.
● Child restraint systems installed on the rear seat should not contact the
front seatbacks.
● Do not use a seat accessory, such as a cushion and seat cover, that cov-
ers the seat cushion surface.
● Do not modify or replace the upholstery of the front seat.
● When it is unavoidable to install a rear-facing child restraint system on the
front passenger seat, do not release the seat belt while the vehicle is mov-
ing. Doing so may cause the airbag system to be on.

Riding with children
●It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats (if equipped) to
avoid accidental contact with the shift lever, wiper switch etc.
● Use the rear door child-protector lock (double-cab models only) or
the window lock switch (vehicles with power windows) to avoid chil-
dren opening the door while driving or operating the power window
accidentally.
● Do not let small children operate equipment which may catch or
pinch body parts, such as the power window (if equipped), hood,
tailgate (if equipped), seats etc.
Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehi-
cle.
Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the
child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat
belt.

have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
