Child restraint systems
Points to remember
Studies have shown that installing a child restraint on a rear seat is
much safer than installing one to the front passenger seat.
l Choose a child restraint system appropriate to the age and size of
the child.
l For installation details, follow the instructions provided with the
child restraint system.
General installation instructions are provided in this manual.

Types of child restraints
Child restraint systems are classified into the following 3 types
according to the age and size of the child.
Infant seat (Access Cab and Double Cab models only)
A child restraint system for a small child or baby must itself be prop-
erly restrained on the seat with the lap portion of the lap/shoulder
belt.
The laws of all 50 states of the U.S.A. and Canada now require the
use of child restraint systems.
