Before driving

CAUTION

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.

■ 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

● 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.
