■ Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also
lock if you lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to
extend so that you can move around fully.

■ 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. 136)
● When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat
belt, follow the instructions on P. 73 regarding seat belt usage.
■ Seat belt pretensioners
● Seat belt pretensioners are not designed to activate in minor frontal or
side impact, 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 any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional. When replacing seat belt retractor assemblies for the front
seating positions, use only genuine Toyota parts equipped with a force
limiter.
● If either front seat belt does not retract or cannot be pulled out due to a
malfunction or activation of the pretensioner, contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional as soon as possible.
● If the front seat belt retractor assembly or surrounding area has been
damaged, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional 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.
■ Seat belt regulations
If seat belt regulations exist in the country where you reside, please contact
any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional, for seat belt replacement or installation.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
■ Wearing a seat belt
● Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
● Always wear a seat belt properly.
●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.
● Toyota recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always
use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
● To achieve a proper seating position, do not recline the seat more than
necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting
up straight and well back in the seats.
●Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.
● Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.

WARNING
■ Pregnant women
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat
belt in the proper way. (→P. 73)
1
Women who are pregnant should position
the lap belt as low as possible over the
hips in the same manner as other occu-
pants. Extend the shoulder belt com-
pletely over the shoulder and position the
belt across the chest. Avoid belt contact
over the rounding of the abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not
only pregnant woman, but also the fetus
could suffer death or serious injury as a
result of sudden braking or a collision.
■ People with a medical condition
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way.
■ When children are in the vehicle
Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes
twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries
that could result in death.
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used
to cut the belt.

WARNING
■ Seat belt pretensioners
● If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS warning light will come on. In
that case, the seat belt cannot be used again and must be replaced at any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
● To obtain maximum protection, the occupants should sit in an upright posi-
tion with their seat belts properly fastened.
●Do not modify, remove or strike the front seat belt retractor assemblies or
surrounding area. This could result in accidental activation of the seat belt
pretensioners or could make the system inoperative, possibly resulting in
serious injury. Seat belt pretensioners have no user-serviceable parts. For
required servicing of front seat belt retractors equipped with seat belt pre-
tensioners, see any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
●When discarding front seat belt retractor assemblies or scrapping the
entire vehicle due to collision damage or for other reasons, consult any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.

WARNING
■ Seat belt damage and wear
●Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be
jammed in the door.
1
● Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose
parts. Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged seat
belts cannot protect an occupant from death or serious injury.
● Ensure that the belt and plate are locked and the belt is not twisted.
If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
●Replace the seat assembly, including the belts, if your vehicle has been
involved in a serious accident, even if there's no obvious damage.
●Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the
seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional. Inappropriate handling of the pretensioner may prevent it from
operating properly, resulting in death or serious injury.
■ When using the seat belt guide
● Always make sure that the belt is not twisted, and runs freely through the
guide.
●Regardless of whether the guide is used or not, always secure the seat
belt guide button.
●Do not hang from or pull the guide forcefully.
■ Before using the rear seat belts
Always make sure that the seat belt is not
caught in the seatback or twisted in one
of the hooks that secure the seatback.
Failure to do so may cause the seat belt
to not be fastened correctly or to become
ineffective in a collision, resulting in death
or serious injury.
