Unless it is unavoidable, do not put

tem on the front seat.
"
A forward- facing child restraint sys-
tem should be put on the front seat
only when it is unavoidable. Always
move the seat as far back as pos-
sible, because the force of a de-
ploying airbag could cause death or
serious injury to the child. On ve-
hicles with side airbags, do not al-
low the child to lean against the
front door or around the front door
even if the child is seated in the
child restraint system. It is danger-
ous if the side airbag inflates, and
the impact could cause death or
serious injury to the child.
"
After installing the child restraint
system, make sure it is secured in
place following the manufacturer's
instructions. If it is not restrained
securely, it may cause death or se-
rious injury to the child in the
event of a sudden stop or accident.

When not using the child restraint system,
keep it secured with the seat belt or place
it in the trunk or somewhere other than
the passenger compartment. This will pre-
vent it from injuring passengers in the
event of a sudden stop or accident.
Your vehicle has anchors for securing the
top strap of a child restraint system. The
anchor nuts are welded beneath the sheet
metal to permit installation of an anchor
bracket for a child restraint system.
To install an anchor bracket, use an 8 mm
30 mm
1.25 mm coarse thread met-
ric bolt and 15 mm (0.6 in.) spacer. Note
that the bolts accompanying many child
restraint systems are not metric. You can
damage the anchor nuts on your vehicle
if you force bolts with different thread into
the anchor nuts.
For instructions about how to install the
anchor bracket, see "Top strap anchors
and locations".
If your child restraint system does not
provide any of the necessary parts, you
can purchase the following items from
your Toyota dealer.
* CRS installation kit
(Part No. 04731- 22012)—contains 1 bolt,
3 types of spacers and 1 locking clip.
* Bolt (Part No. 91511- 60830)
