1-7. Safety information
CAUTION
n Child restraint precautions
l Regular Cab models: A forward-facing child restraint system which
belongs to a passenger risk group should never be installed on the right
passenger seat with the passenger airbag off switch in the AUTO position,
because the force of the deploying airbag could cause death or serious
injury to the child in forward seating position. (→P. 128)
l Regular Cab models (Bench type seat): Do not install a child restraint sys-
tem on the center seat if it interferes with driving operations such as
changing the shift lever position. In this case, install the child restraint sys-
tem on the right passenger seat.
Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a child restraint system
l
on the front or rear passenger seat. If installing a child restraint system
with the seat belt extender connected to the seat belt, the seat belt will not
securely hold the child restraint system, which could cause death or seri-
ous injury to the child or other passengers in the event of collision.
l Do not allow the child to lean his/her head or any part of his/her body
against the door or the area of the seat, front and rear pillars or roof side
rail from which the side airbags or curtain shield airbags deploy even if the
child is seated in the child restraint system. It is dangerous if the side air-
bags and curtain shield airbags inflate, and the force of the rapid inflation
could cause death or serious injury to the child.
Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by
l
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.
n Child restraint lock function belt precaution
Do not allow children to play with the child restraint lock function belt. If the
belt becomes twisted around a child's neck, it will not be possible to pull the
belt out leading 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.
