Child restraint—

—Child restraint precautions
Toyota strongly urges the use of child
restraint systems for children small
enough to use them.
If a child is too large for a child restraint
system, the child should sit in the rear
seat and must be restrained using the
vehicle's seat belt. See "Seat belts" in this
Section for details.
CAUTION
For effective protection in automo-
D
bile accidents and sudden stops, a
child must be properly restrained,
using a seat belt or child restraint
system depending on the age and
size of the child. Holding a child in
your arms is not a substitute for a
child restraint system. In an acci-
dent, the child can be crushed
against the windshield, or between
you and the vehicle's interior.
Toyota strongly urges use of a
D
proper child restraint system which
conforms to the size of the child,
installed on the rear seat. Accord-
ing to accident statistics, the child
is safer when properly restrained in
the rear seat than in the front seat.
If child restraint system regulations
D
exist in the country where you re-
side, please contact your Toyota
dealer for the installation of the
child restraint system.
Make sure you have complied with
D
all installation instructions provided
by the child restraint manufacturer
and that the system is properly se-
cured. If it is not secured properly,
it may cause death or serious injury
to the child in the event of a sud-
den stop, sudden swerve or acci-
dent.
