    1-7. Safety information Child restraint systems A child restraint system for a small child or baby must itself be prop- erly restrained on the seat with the lap portion of the lap/shoulder belt. The laws of all 50 states of the U.S.A. and Canada now require the use of child restraint systems.
  • Page 113 1-7. Safety information Forward facing — Convertible seat Booster seat Selecting an appropriate child restraint system Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belts. If a child is too large for a child restraint system, sit the child on a rear seat and use the vehicle’s seat belt.(→P.
  • Page 114 In an accident, the child can be crushed against the windshield, or between you and the vehicle's interior. Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that con- forms to the size of the child, installed on the rear seat. According to acci- dent statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.
  • Page 115 1-7. Safety information CAUTION Child restraint precautions Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by the child restraint manufacturer and that the system is properly secured. If it is not secured properly, it may cause death or serious injury to the child in the event of a sudden stop or accident.
