CAUTION
Using the trunk
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in seri-
ous injury.
Remove any heavy loads, such as snow and ice, from the trunk lid before
opening it. Failure to do so may cause the trunk lid to fall closed again
after it is opened.
When opening or closing the trunk lid, thoroughly check to make sure the
surrounding area is safe.
If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that
the trunk is about to open or close.
Use caution when opening or closing the trunk lid in windy weather as it
may move abruptly in strong wind.
Do not attach any accessories other than genuine Lexus parts to the trunk
lid. Such additional weight on the trunk lid may cause the lid to fall closed
again after it is opened.
The trunk lid may fall if it is not
opened fully. It is more difficult to
open or close the trunk lid on an
incline than on a level surface, so
beware of the trunk lid unexpectedly
opening or closing by itself. Make
sure that the trunk lid is fully open
and secure before using the trunk.
When closing the trunk lid, take extra
care to prevent your fingers etc. from
being caught.
When closing the trunk lid, make
sure to press it lightly on its outer
surface. If the trunk handle is used to
fully close the trunk lid, it may result
in hands or arms being caught.

CAUTION
When children are in the vehicle
Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes
twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious inju-
ries that could result in death.
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used
to cut the belt.
Seat belt pretensioners
If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS warning light will come on. In that
case, the seat belt cannot be used again and must be replaced at any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
Seat belt damage and wear
Inappropriate handling of the pretensioner may prevent it from operating
properly resulting in death or serious injury.
Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be
jammed in the door.
Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and
loose parts. Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged
seat belts cannot protect an occupant from death or serious injury.
Ensure that the belt and tab are locked and the belt is not twisted.
If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
Replace the seat assembly, including the belts, if your vehicle has been
involved in a serious accident, even if there's no obvious damage.
Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the
seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by any authorized Lexus
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and adjusted with the
touch of a button. (P. 6 6 )
Linked mirror function when reversing (vehicles with driving position
memory)
The outside rear view mirrors will automatically angle downwards when the
vehicle is reversing in order to give a better view of the ground. However,
this function will not operate when the mirror select switch is in the neutral
position (between “L” and “R”).
Auto anti-glare function (vehicles with auto anti-glare mirror)
When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to automatic mode, the
outside rear view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare
inside rear view mirror to reduce reflected light. (P. 8 2 )
Rain clearing mirrors (if equipped)
When water droplets collects on the mirror surface, for example when it
rains, the rain clearing (hydrophilic) effect of the mirrors causes the droplets
to be spread out into a film making the rear view clearer. In the following
cases, the rain clearing effect will be reduced temporarily, but will return
after 1 or 2 days' exposure to direct sunlight.
After wiping dirt off the mirrors
When the mirrors fog up
After waxing your vehicle in an automatic car wash
After your vehicle has been parked for a long period in underground
parking lots, etc. where there is no direct sunlight
