GS450h_300h_OM_OM30F00E_(EE)The installation of an
RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect electronic sys-
tems such as:
●Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
●Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range 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 qualified
and equipped professional for precautionary measures or special instructions regarding
installation of an RF-transmitter system.
Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, antenna positions and
installation provisions for the in stallation of RF-transmitters, is available on request at any
authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
High voltage parts and cables on the hybr id vehicles emit approximately the same
amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline powered vehicles or
home electronic appliances despite of their electromagnetic shielding.
Unwanted noise may occur in the reception of the radio frequency transmitter (RF-trans-
mitter).
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Lexus contain explosive
chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt pretensioners left as
they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to have the systems of the SRS
airbag and seat belt pretensioner removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or
by any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional before you scrap your vehicle.
