CAUTION
!
Always make sure the shoulder
belt is positioned across the cen-
ter of the child’s shoulder. The belt
should be kept away from child’s
neck, but not falling off child’s
shoulder. Failure to do so could re-
duce the amount of protection in
an accident and increase the
chance of injury
High-positioned lap belts and
loose-fitting belts both could
cause serious injuries due to slid-
ing under the lap belt during a col-
lision. Keep the lap belt positioned
as low on hips as possible.
For child’s safety, do not place the
shoulder belt under child’s arm.
After inserting the tab, make sure
the tab and buckle are locked and
that the lap and shoulder portions
of the belt are not twisted.
Do not insert coins, clips, etc. in
the buckle as this may prevent you
from properly latching the tab and
buckle.
If the seat belt does not function
normally, it cannot protect your
child from injury. Contact your To-
yota dealer immediately. Do not
use the seat until the seat belt is
fixed.
2. To remove the child restraint system,
press the buckle-release button and
allow the belt to retract.
