• 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 system. Toyota strongly
recommends that all infants and
children be placed in the rear seat
of the vehicle and properly re-
strained. The rear seat is the safest
for infants and children. For in-
structions concerning the installa-
tion of a child restraint system, see
"Child restraint" on page 74 in this
Section.

• Do not allow a child to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body
against the door or the area of the
seat, front pillar, rear pillar or roof
side from which the side airbag and
curtain shield airbag deploy even if
he/she is seated in the child re-
straint system. It is dangerous if
the side airbag and curtain shield
airbag inflate, and the impact could
cause death or serious injury to the
child. For instructions concerning
the installation of a child restraint
system, see "Child restraint" on
page 74 in this Section.
• Do not lean against the side door
when the vehicle is in use, since
the side airbag and curtain shield
airbag inflate with considerable
speed and force. Otherwise, you
may be killed or seriously injured.
Special care should be taken espe-
cially when you have a small child
in the vehicle.
• Sit up straight and well back in the
seat, distributing your weight evenly
in the seat. Do not apply excessive
weight to the outer side of the front
seats with a side airbag, and to the
front pillar, rear pillar and roof side
rail with a curtain shield airbag.
