Warning

 


Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may cause the driver's floor mat to slip, possibly interfering with the pedals while driving. An unexpectedly high speed may result or it may become difficult to stop the vehicle, leading to an accident, or leading to death or a serious injury.

  • When installing the driver's floor mat

     

  • Do not use floor mats designed for other models or different model year vehicles, even if they are toyota genuine floor mats.
  • Only use floor mats designed for the driver's seat.
  • Always install the floor mat securely using the retaining hooks (clips) provided.
  • Do not use two or more floor mats on top of each other.
  • Do not place the floor mat bottom-side up or upside-down.

  • Check that the floor mat is securely fixed in the correct place with all the provided retaining hooks (clips). Be especially careful to perform this check after cleaning the floor.
  • With the engine stopped and the shift lever in p, fully depress each pedal to the floor to make sure it does not interfere with the floor mat.

For safety drive

For safe driving, adjust the seat and mirror to an appropriate position before driving.

Correct driving posture

 

  1. Adjust the angle of the seatback so that you are sitting straight up and so that you do not have to lean forward to steer.
  2. Adjust the seat so that you can depress the pedals fully and so that your arms bend slightly at the elbow when gripping the steering wheel.
  3. Lock the head restraint in place with the center of the head restraint closest to the top of your ears.
  4. Wear the seat belt correctly.

Correct use of the seat belts

 

Make sure that all occupants are wearing their seat belts before driving the vehicle. Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle”¦s seat belt.

 

Adjusting the mirrors

 

Make sure that you can see backward clearly by adjusting the inside and outside rear view mirrors properly.

Warning

 


Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

  • Do not adjust the position of the driver's seat while driving.

    Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

  • Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.

    A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.

  • Do not place anything under the front seats.

    Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.

  • When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start to feel tired.

    Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to continue driving and take a break immediately.
