The front seat ventilator has two
switches: one marked “L” (for driver’s
seat) and the other marked “R” (for
front passenger’s seat).
To turn on the seat ventilator, push the
knob to pop it out and then turn the
knob counterclockwise.
At this time, the indicator light will illumi-
nate to indicate the seat ventilator is oper-
ating.
The ignition switch must be set at ON to
activate seat ventilators.
Three setting levels are available.
To disable this function, turn the knob to
the center position. The indicator light
goes off.
Push the knob into the recessed position
when not in use.
NOTICE
 Do not put unevenly weighted ob-
jects on the seat and do not stick
sharp objects (needles, nails, etc.)
into the seat.
 When cleaning the seats, do not
use organic substances (paint thin-
ner, benzine, alcohol, gasoline,
etc.). They may damage the seat
ventilation/heating system or seat
surface.
 Before cleaning the seats, fully
wring out the towel that will be
used. Water entering the seats may
cause the seat ventilation/heating
system to malfunction.
 To prevent the battery from being
discharged, turn the switches off
when the engine is not running.
Toyota strongly urges that the driver and
passengers in the vehicle be properly re-
strained at all times with the seat belts
provided. Failure to do so could increase
the chance of injury and/or the severity of
injury in accidents.
The seat belts provided for your vehicle
are designed for people of adult size,
large enough to properly wear them.
Child. Use a child restraint system ap-
propriate for the child until the child be-
comes large enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belts. See “Child restraint”
on page 98 in this Section for details.
If a child is too large for a child restraint
system, the child should sit in the rear
seat and must be restrained using the
vehicle’s seat belt. According to accident
statistics, the child is safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in the
front seat.
If a child must sit in the front seat, the
seat belts should be worn properly. If an
accident occurs and the seat belts are not
worn properly, the force of the rapid infla-
tion of the airbag may cause death or
serious injury to the child.
