CAUTION
A forward±facing child restraint system should be
allowed to be 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. Do not allow
the child to lean over the front door or around the front
door even if the child is seated in a child restraint
system. It is dangerous if the side airbag inflates, and
the impact could cause death or serious injury to the
child.

shoulder belt through or around the booster seat and
child following the instructions provided by its
manufacturer and insert the tab into the buckle.
Make sure the shoulder belt is correctly across the
child's
shoulder and that the lap belt is positioned as low
as possible on child's hips. See ºSeat beltsº on page 143
for details.
CAUTION
 Always make sure the shoulder belt is positioned
across the center of child's shoulder. The b elt should
be kept away from child's neck, but not falling off
child's shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce the
amount of protection in an accident and cause
serious injuries in a collision.
 Both high±positioned lap belts and
loose±fitting belts could cause serious injuries
due to sliding under the lap belt during a
collision or other unintended result. Keep the
lap belt positioned as low on hip as possible.
 For child's safety, do not place the shoulder
belt under child's arm.
 After inserting the tab, make sure the tab and
buckle are l ocked and that the lap and shoulder
portions of the belt are not twisted.
 Do not insert coins, clips, etc. in the buckle as
this may prevent you from properly latching the
tab and buckle.
 If the seat belt does not function normally,
immediately contact your Lexus dealer. Do not
use the seat until the seat belt is fixed. It cannot
protect your child from injury.
