Child restraint precautions
●
Double Cab models: A forward-facing child restraint system may be
installed on the front passenger seat only when it is unavoidable. A child
restraint system that requires a top tether strap should not be used in the
front passenger seat since there is no top tether strap anchor for the front
passenger seat. Adjust the seatback as upright as possible and always
move the seat as far back as possible even if AIR BAG OFF indicator light
is illuminated, because the front passenger airbag could inflate with con-
siderable speed and force. Otherwise, the child may be killed or seriously
injured.
●
Access Cab models: A forward-facing child restraint system which belongs
to a passenger risk group should never be installed on the front 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. 97)
●
Regular Cab models: Do not install a child restraint system on the center
seat if it interferes with driving operations such as gear shifting. In this
case, install the child restraint system on the right passenger seat.
110
●
Access Cab models: Never install a
rear-facing child restraint system on the
front passenger seat with the passen-
ger airbag off switch in the AUTO posi-
tion. In the event of an accident, the
force of the rapid inflation of the front
passenger airbag can cause death or
serious injury to the child if the rear-fac-
ing child restraint system is installed on
the front passenger seat.
●
Access Cab models: If you must install
a rear-facing child restraint system on
the front passenger seat, make sure
that the passenger airbag off switch is
in the OFF position with the key
removed and that the indicator light is
on.
