Child seat belt usage

The seat belts of your vehicle are principally designed for persons of adult
size.
●
Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat belt. (→P. 106)
●
When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat
belt, follow the instructions on P. 54 regarding seat belt usage.
■

Seat belt pretensioners

●
Seat belt pretensioners are not designed to activate in minor frontal or
side impacts, in side or rear impacts or in roll-over accidents.
●
The following four components operate simultaneously.
• Seat belt pretensioner for driver
• Seat belt pretensioner for front passenger
• SRS frontal airbag for driver
• SRS frontal airbag for front passenger
●
Pretensioners are designed to function on a one-time-only basis. In the
event that a pretensioner is activated, both the driver's and front passen-
ger's seat belt retractor assemblies must be replaced only by Toyota
dealer. When replacing seat belt retractor assemblies, use only genuine
Toyota parts.
●
If either front seat belt does not retract or cannot be pulled out due to a
malfunction or activation of the pretensioner, contact your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible.
●
If the front seat belt retractor assembly or surrounding area has been
damaged, contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
●
When you sell your vehicle, we urge you to explain to the buyer that it
has seat belt pretensioners by alerting the buyer to the contents of this
section.

Replacing the belt after the pretensioner has been activated

If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensioner will activate
for the first collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent colli-
sions.
