1-1. For safe use
WARNING
Pregnant women
■
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat
belt in the proper way. (P. 38)
Women who are pregnant should posi-
tion the lap belt as low as possible over
the hips in the same manner as other
occupants, extending the shoulder belt
completely over the shoulder and avoid-
ing belt contact with the rounding of the
abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not
only the pregnant woman, but also the
fetus could suffer death or serious injury
as a result of sudden braking, sudden
swerving or a collision.
■ People suffering illness
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way. (P. 38)
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
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.
Adjustable shoulder anchor
■
Always make sure the shoulder belt is positioned across the center of your
shoulder. The belt should be kept away from your neck, but not falling off
your shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce the amount of protection in an
accident and cause death or serious injuries in the event of a sudden stop,
sudden swerve or accident. (P. 39)
