OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
176Install the child restraint system on the front passenger seat
only when it is unavoidable. Your vehicle is equipped with a
front passenger occupant classification system. In order to
activate
the occupant classification system correctly, install the
forward−facing child restraint system on the front passenger
seat in the following order:
1. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position.
2. Move the front passenger seat to the rearward position.
3. Put the child restraint system on the front passenger seat
without putting your weight on the front passenger seat.
4. Insert the seat belt tab into the seat belt buckle.
5. Fully extend the shoulder belt to put it in the lock mode.
When the belt is then retrac ted even slightly, it cannot be
extended. To hold the seat securely, make sure the belt is in the
lock mode before letting the belt retract.
6. While pressing the convertible seat firmly against the seat
cushion and seatback, let the shoulder belt retract as far as it
will go to hold the convertible seat securely.
CAUTION
Push and pull the child r estraint system in different
directions to be sure it is secure. Follow all the
installation instructions pr ovided by its manufacturer.
7. Put a child on the child restraint system and secure the child,
complying with the instructions provided by the child restraint
system manufacturer. The occupant classification indicator light should indicate
“OFF”
when the ignition key is in the “ON” position and the child
is in the child restraint system after following these procedures.
The “OFF” indicator indicates the SRS front passenger airbag
will not deploy. If the indicator light indicates “ON”, remove the
child restraint system and reinstall it with the ignition key in the
“ACC” or “LOCK” position. If the indicator light still indicates
“ON” when the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position, then
the SRS front passenger airbag may deploy in an accident. Do
not drive the vehicle in this condition. Remove the child
restraint system and contact your Lexus dealer.
CAUTION
Never install a rearfacing child restraint system on
the front passenger seat. A forwardfacing child
restraint system should only be installed on the front
passenger seat when unavoidable. If you must install
the child restraint system on the front passenger
seat, put the seat in its mo st rearward position, and
install the forwardfacing child restraint system in
the proper order. Otherw ise, the front passenger
occupant classification system cannot detect the
presence of the child rest raint system and the front
passenger airbag could deploy.
