forward or backward to
ensure the pedals can be
reached and easily
depressed to the extent
required. (  P. 67)
Adjust the seatback so that
the controls are easily opera-
ble.
Adjust the tilt and telescopic
positions of the steering
wheel downward so the air-

Before driving
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■
While driving ●
Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. ●
Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce the
effectiveness of the seat belt and head re straint, increasing the risk of death or
serious injury to the driver or passenger. ●
Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and
stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident. The adjustment
mechanism may also be damaged.■
Adjusting the seat position ●
Do not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion, to
reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt.
If the seat is too reclined during an accident, the lap belt may slide past the hips
and apply restraint forces di rectly to the abdomen or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the ri sk of death or serious injury.●
Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passengers are
not injured by the moving seat. ●
Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid injury.
Fingers or hands may become ja mmed in the seat mechanism.

1261-7. Safety information
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) SRS airbags The SRS airbags inflate when the vehi cle 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 he ad and chest of the driver and front passen-
ger from impact with interior components.
SRS knee airbags
Can help provide driver and front passenger protection.

SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags) ●
The SRS front airbag will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set
threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approximately 12 - 18 mph
[20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fix ed wall that does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following situa-
tions:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which
can move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in which
the front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes under, the bed of a truck●
Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt preten-
sioners will activate. ●
The SRS front airbags for the front passeng er will not activate if there is not a
passenger sitting in the front passenger seat. However, the front airbags for the
front passenger may deploy if luggage is pu t in the seat, even if the seat is unoc-
cupied.■
SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield air-
bags) ●
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 ap proximately 3300 lb. [1500 kg] vehicle
colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle
orientation at an approx imate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h]).●
The SRS curtain shield airbags will depl oy in the event of vehicle rollover.

LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■
SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions regarding the SRS airbags.
Failure to do so may caus e death or serious injury.●
The driver and all passengers in the vehicl e must wear their seat belts properly.
The SRS airbags are supplemental device s to be used with the seat belts.●
The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause death or
serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag. The National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) advises:
Since the risk zone for the dr iver’s airbag is the first 2 - 3 in. (50 - 75 mm) of infla-
tion, placing yourself 10 in. (250 mm) from your driver airbag provides you with a
clear margin of safety. This distance is measured from the center of the steering
wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less than 10 in. (250 mm) away now, you can
change your driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the pedals
comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat.
Although vehicle designs vary, many dr ivers can achieve the 10 in. (250 mm)
distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, simply by reclining the
back of the seat somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to
see the road, raise yourself by using a fi rm, non-slippery cushion, or raise the
seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, ti lt it downward. This points the airbag
toward your chest instead of your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as recomme nded by NHTSA above, while still main-
taining control of the foot pedals, steeri ng wheel, and your view of the instrument
panel controls. ●
The portion of the front, side and rear pil-
lars or roof side rail garnishes (padding)
containing the curtain shield airbags is
inside scratched, cr acked, or otherwise
damaged.

SRS airbag precautions
●
The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable force, and can
cause death or serious injury especially if the front passenger is very close to the
airbag. The front passenger se at should be as far from the airbag as possible with
the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits upright.●
Improperly seated and/or restrained in fants and children can be killed or seri-
ously injured by a deploying airbag. An in fant or child who is too small to use a
seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint system. Lexus
strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats of
the vehicle and properly restrained. The re ar seats are safer for infants and chil-
dren than the front passenger seat. (  P. 146) ●
If the seat belt extender has been con-
nected to the front seat belt buckles but the
seat belt extender has not also been fas-
tened to the latch plate of the seat belt, the
SRS front airbags will judge that the driver
and front passenger are wearing the seat
belt even though the seat belt has not been
connected. In this case, the SRS front air-
bags may not activate correctly in a colli-
sion, resulting in deat h or serious injury in
the event of collision. Be sure to wear the
seat belt with the seat belt extender.
