ºONº position. However, even if the ignition key is turned to
the ºACCº or ºLOCKº position, the moon roof can be
operated until any of the doors is opened (or for about 60
seconds).
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the following.

While the vehicle is moving, always keep the head, hands
and other parts of the body of all occupants away from the
roof opening. Otherwise, you could be seriously injured if

CAUTION
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a
collision, avoid reclining the seatback any more than needed.
The seat belts provide maximum protection in a frontal or rear
collision when the driver and the passenger are sitting up
straight
and well back in the seats. If you are reclined, the lap
belt may slide past your hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen. Therefore, in the event of a frontal
collision, the risk of personal injury may increase with
increasing recline of the seatback.

Adjust the seat as needed and sit up straight and well back
in the seat. To fasten your belt, pull it out of the r etractor
and insert the tab into the buckle.
You will hear a click when the tab locks into the buckle.
The seat belt length automatically adjusts to your size and the
seat position.
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on
impact. It also may lock if you lean forward too quickly. A
slow, easy motion will allow the belt to extend, and you can
move around freely. When a passenger's shoulder
belt is completely extended and
is then retracted even slightly, the belt is locked in that
position and cannot be extended. This feature is used to hold
the child restraint system securely. (For details, see ºChild
restraintº on page 143.) To free the belt again, fully retract the
belt and then pull the belt out once more.
If the seat belt cannot be pulled out of the retractor, firmly pull
the belt and release it. You will then be able to smoothly pull
the belt out of the retractor.

CAUTION

For effective protection in automobile accidents and
sudden stops, children must be properly restrained.
Holding a child in your arms is not a substitute for a child
restraint system using a seat belt or child restraint
depending on age and size. 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 which
conforms to the size of the child and is put on the r ear seat.
According to accident statistics, the child is safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.

Never put a 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 put on the front seat.

Unless it is unavoidable, do not put a forward±facing child
restraint system on the front seat.

A forward±facing child restraint system should be allowed
to put on the front seat only when it is unavoidable. Always
move the seat as far back as possible, because the force of
a deploying airbag could cause death or serious injury to
the child.

Make sure you have complied with all installation
instructions provided by the child restraint manufacturer
and that the system is properly secured.

CAUTION

Never put a 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 put on the front seat.

Unless it is unavoidable, do not put a forward±facing child
restraint system on the front seat.

A forward±facing child restraint system should be allowed
to put on the front seat only when it is unavoidable. Always
move the seat as far back as possible, because the force of
a deploying airbag could cause death or serious injury to
the child.

After installing the child restraint system, make sure it is
secured in place according to the manufacturer's
instructions. If it is not restrained securely, it may cause
death or serious injury to the child in the event of a sudden
stop or accident.
