The power windows can be operated when
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
Operating the power windows after turning the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch OFF
The power windows can be operated for approximately 45 seconds even
after the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is switched to ACCESSORY
mode or turned OFF. They cannot, however, be operated once either front
door is opened.
Jam protection function
If an object becomes caught between the window and the window frame,
window travel is stopped and the window is opened slightly.
When the power window does not close normally
If the jam protection function is operating abnormally and a window cannot
be closed, perform the following operations using the power window switch
on the relevant door.
After stopping the vehicle, the window can be closed by holding the
power window switch in the one-touch closing position while the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode.
If the window still cannot be closed even by carrying out the operation
explained above, initialize the function by performing the following pro-
cedure.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch closing position.
Continue holding the switch for a further 6 seconds after the win-
dow has closed.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch opening position.
Continue holding the switch for a further 2 seconds after the win-
dow has opened completely.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch closing position
once again. Continue holding the switch for a further 2 seconds
after the window has closed.
If you release the switch while the window is moving, start again from the
beginning.
If the window continues to close but then re-open slightly even after per-
forming the above procedure correctly, have the vehicle inspected by any
authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional.

(Customizable features P. 556)
CAUTION
Closing the windows
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury.
Check to make sure that all passengers do not have any part of their body
in a position where it could be caught when a window is being operated.
Do not allow children to operate the power windows.
Closing a power window on someone can cause serious injury, and in
some instances, even death.
Jam protection function
Never try jamming any part of your body to activate the jam protection
function intentionally.
The jam protection function may not work if something gets caught just
before the window fully closes.

If the moon roof closes but then re-opens slightly
Stop the vehicle.
Press and hold the “CLOSE” switch until the moon roof com-
pletely closes.
During the operation, the moon roof will move in the manner out-
lined below. If the switch is released during the operation, the oper-
ation will have to be performed again from the beginning.
The moon roof will close, open and then pause for approximately
10 seconds. Then it will close, tilt up and pause for approximately 1
second, after which it will tilt down and open and then close.
If the moon roof does not fully close even after performing the above proce-
dure correctly, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
If the moon roof tilts down but then tilts back up
Stop the vehicle.
Press and hold the “TILT” switch until the moon roof moves into
the tilt up position and stops.
Release the “TILT” switch once and then press and hold the
“TILT” switch until the moon roof completely closes.
After moving to the tilt up position, the moon roof will move in the
following manner. If the switch is released during the operation, the
operation will have to be performed again from the beginning.
The moon roof will pause for approximately 10 seconds while in
the tilt up position and then make some fine adjustments. Follow-
ing this, it will pause for approximately 1 second, tilt down, open
and then close.
If the moon roof does not fully close even after performing the above proce-
dure correctly, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

Correct driving posture
Drive in a good posture as follows:
Sit upright and well back
in the seat. (P. 6 3 )
Adjust the position of the
seat forward or backward
to ensure the pedals can be
reached and easily
depressed to the extent
required. (P. 63)
Adjust the seatback so that
the controls are easily
operable. (P. 63)
Adjust the tilt and tele-
scopic positions of the
steering wheel downward
so the airbag is facing your
chest.
(P. 79, 80)
Lock the head restraint in
place with the center of the
head restraint closest to the
top of your ears. (P. 71)

SRS airbags
The SRS airbags inflate when the vehicle is subjected to certain types
of severe impacts that may cause significant injury to the occupants.
They work together with the seat belts to help reduce the risk of death
or serious injury.
SRS front airbags
SRS driver airbag/front passenger airbag
Can help protect the head and chest of the driver and front
passenger from impact with interior components.
SRS knee airbags
Can help provide driver and front passenger protection.
SRS side and curtain shield airbags
SRS side airbags
Can help protect the torso of the front seat occupants.
SRS curtain shield airbags
Can help protect primarily the head of outside occupants.

Airbag system components
The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The
SRS airbag system is controlled by the airbag sensor assembly.
The airbag sensor assembly consists of a safing sensor and an air-
bag sensor.
In certain types of severe frontal or side impacts, the SRS airbag
system triggers the airbag inflators. A chemical reaction in the
inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas to help restrain
the motion of the occupants. Knee airbags

If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
Bruising and slight abrasions may result from contact with a deploying
(inflating) SRS airbag.
A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel, airbag cover and inflator) as
well as the front seats, and parts of the front pillar, rear pillar and roof
side rail, may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be
hot.
The windshield may crack.
SRS airbag deployment conditions (front airbags)
The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds
the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approxi-
mately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that
does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher if the vehicle
strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can move or
deform on impact, or if the vehicle is involved in an underride collision
(e.g. a collision in which the front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes
under, the bed of a truck, etc.).
It is possible that in some collisions where the forward deceleration of
the vehicle is very close to the designed threshold level, the SRS front
airbags and the seat belt pretensioners may not activate together.
SRS airbag deployment conditions (side and curtain shield airbags)
The SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags will deploy in the
event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force
corresponding to the impact force produced by an approximately 1500 kg
[3300 lb.] vehicle colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpen-
dicular to the vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 20 - 30
km/h
[12 - 18 mph]).
