1-1. For safe use

When installing a child restraint system on the front passenger seat
When you have to use a child restraint
system on the front passenger seat,
adjust the following:

The seatback to the most upright posi-
tion

The seat as far back as possible

The seat cushion to the highest position
(if equipped)

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 belt.

If the child is too large for a child restraint system, sit the child on a rear seat
and use the vehicle's seat belt. (P. 30)
WARNING

Using a child restraint system
The use of a child restraint system not suitable for the vehicle may not prop-
erly secure the infant or child. It may result in death or serious injury (in the
event of sudden braking or an accident).

Child restraint precautions

For effective protection in automobile 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 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.
