When the passenger airbag manual
on–off switch is turned off, the pas-
senger airbag will not inflate in a
collision and turning off the pas-
senger airbag can reduce the occu-
pant protection which your vehicle
safety systems can provide to you
in certain accidents and increase
the likelihood of serious personal
injuries.

and front passenger airbag" in this

Child restraint—

—Child restraint precautions
Toyota strongly urges the use of child
restraint systems for
enough to use them.
The laws of all 50 states in the U.S.A.
and Canada now require the use of a
child restraint system.
Your vehicle conforms to SAEJ1819.
If a child is too large for a child restraint
system, the child should sit in the seat
and must be restrained using the vehicle's
seat belt. See "Seat belts" for details.
CAUTION
D
For effective protection in automo-
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
against the windshield, or between
you and the vehicle's interior.
