CAUTION
n
Wearing a seat belt
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking or an accident.
Failing to do so may cause death or severe injury.
l
Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
l
Always wear a seat belt properly.
l
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.
l
Toyota recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always
use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
l
Do not recline the seat any more than necessary to achieve a proper seat-
ing position. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting
up straight and well back in the seats.
l
Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.
l
Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.
n
Seat belt pretensioners
Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger's seat.
Doing so will disperse the passenger's weight, which prevents the sensor
from detecting the passenger's weight properly. As a result, the seat belt pre-
tensioner for the front passenger's seat may not activate in the event of a
collision.
