WARNING
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
■
Wearing a seat belt
●
Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
●
Always wear a seat belt properly.
●
Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt
for more than one person at once, including children.
●
Toyota recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always
use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
●
To achieve a proper seating position, do not recline the seat more than
necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting
up straight and well back in the seats.
●
Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.
●
Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.
■
Pregnant women
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat
belt in the proper way. (→P. 28)
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 or a colli-
sion.

People suffering illness
