CHILD RESTRAINT
Child restraint precautions
Lexus strongly urges the use of child restraint system
for children small enough to use it.
The laws of all fifty states in the U.S.A. and Canada now
require the use of a child restraint system.
Your vehicle conforms to SAE J1819.
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. See ªSeat beltsº on page 63 for details.
CAUTION!
For effective protection in automobile accidents
and sudden stops, children must be properly
restrained using a seat belt or child restraint
depending on age and size. Holding a child in
your arms is not a substitute for a child restraint
system. In an accident, the child can be crushed
against the windshield, or between you and the
vehicle's interior if you are unrestrained.
Lexus strongly urges use of a proper child
restraint conforms to the size of the child on the
rear seat. According to accident statistics, the
child is safer when properly restrained in the rear
seat than in the front seat.
Never install of rear±facing child restraint system
on the front seat. In the event of an accident, the
force of the rapid inflation of the airbag can cause
death or serious injury if a rear±facing child
restraint system is installed on the front seat.
Unless it is unavoidable, do not install a
forward±facing child restraint system on the front
seat.
