CAUTION
■When installing a child restraint system
Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual and fix
the child restraint system securely in place.
If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other passen-
gers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking, sudden
swerving or an accident.
●When installing a child restraint system in the rear center seat, adjust both seat
cushions to the same position and align both seatbacks at the same angle. The
seatbacks must be adjusted to the same angle. Otherwise, the child restraint sys-
tem cannot be securely restrained and this may cause death or serious injuries in
the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
●If the driver's seat interferes with the child
restraint system and prevents it from being
attached correctly, attach the child restraint
system to the right-hand rear seat.
●Adjust the front passenger seat so that it
does not interfere with the child restraint
system.
●Only put a forward-facing child restraint
system on the front seat when unavoidable.
When installing a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat, move the seat as far back as possible.
Failure to do so may result in death or seri-
ous injury if the airbags deploy (inflate).

CAUTION
■When installing a child restraint system
●Never use a rear-facing child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger seat when the

(→P. 1 6 3 )
The force of the rapid inflation of the front
passenger airbag can cause death or seri-
ous injury to children in the event of an
accident.
There is a label(s) on the passenger side
sun visor, indicating it is forbidden to attach
a rear-facing child restraint system to the
front passenger seat.
Details of the label(s) are shown in the illus-
tration below.

CAUTION
■When installing a child restraint system
●If child restraint system regulations exist in the country where you reside, please
contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional for the child restraint system installation.
●When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is positioned
across the center of the child's shoulder. The belt should be kept away from the
child's neck, but not so that it could fall off the child's shoulder. Failing to do so
may result in death or serious injury in the event of sudden braking, sudden
swerving or an accident.
●Ensure that the belt and tab are securely locked and the seat belt is not twisted.
●Shake the child restraint system left and right, and forward and backward to
ensure that it has been securely installed.
●After securing a child restraint system, never adjust the seat.
●Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint system manufac-
turer.
■To correctly attach a child restraint system to the anchors
When using the lower anchors, be sure that there are no foreign objects around the
anchors and that the seat belt is not caught behind the child restraint system. Make
sure the child restraint system is securely attached, or it may cause death or serious
injury to the child or other passengers in the event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve
or accident.

■“PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator information
If any of the following problems occur, it is possible that there is a malfunction in the
system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
●Neither “ON” nor “OFF” comes on.
●The indicator does not change when the airbag manual on-off switch is
switched to “ON” or
“OFF”.
CAUTION
■When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install the child restraint system in a rear seat. In the event
that the rear seat cannot be used, the front seat can be used as long as the airbag
manual on-off system is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag deploy-
ment (inflation) may cause death or serious injury.
■When a child restraint system is not installed on the front passenger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off system is set to “ON”.
If it is left
off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident, which may result
in death or serious injury.

CAUTION
■Burns
●Use caution when seating the following persons in a seat with the seat heater on
to avoid the possibility of burns:
• Babies, small children, the elderly, the sick and the physically challenged
• Persons with sensitive skin
• Persons who are fatigued
• Persons who have taken alcohol or drugs that induce sleep (sleeping drugs,
cold remedies, etc.)
●Do not cover the seat with anything when using the seat heater.
Using the seat heater with a blanket or cushion increases the temperature of the
seat and may lead to overheating.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the seat heaters/ventilators
Do not put heavy objects that have an uneven surface on the seat and do not stick
sharp objects (needles, nails, etc.) into the seat.
■To prevent the battery discharged
Do not leave the system on longer than necessary when the engine is off.
