SRS AIRBAGS
The SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbags are
designed to provide further protection to the driver and
front passenger when added to the primary protection
provided by the seat belts.
In response to a severe frontal impact, the SRS airbags
work together with the seat belts to prevent or reduce
injury by inflating, in order to decrease the likelihood of
the driver’s or front passenger’s head or face directly
hitting the steering wheel or dashboard.
The passenger airbag is activated even with no passenger in
the front seat.

Do not put objects on or in front of the dashboard or
steering wheel pad that houses the airbag system.
They might restrict inflation or cause personal injury
as they are projected rearward.
Do not modify, remove or open any component or
wiring, such as the steering wheel, column cover,
front passenger airbag cover, front passenger airbag
or airbag sensor assembly. Doing any of these may
cause sudden SRS airbag inflation or disable the
system, which could result in personal injury.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in severe
injuries.
NOTICE

consulting your Lexus dealer. Such changes can
interfere with proper operation of the SRS airbag
