IS300h_EE(OM53B95E)The installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect elec-
tronic systems such as:
Hybrid system
Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
Dynamic radar cruise control system
Cruise control system
Anti-lock brake system
Vehicle dynamics integrated management
SRS airbag system
Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly

instructions regarding installation of an RF-transmitter system.
Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, antenna positions
and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is available on

same amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline powered
vehicles or home electronic appliances despite of their electromagnetic shielding.
