Before driving
Seat belt comfort guide (outside rear seats)
If the shoulder belt sits close to a
person’s neck, slide the seat belt
comfort guide forward.
Seat belt pretensioners (front and outside rear seats)
The pretensioner helps the seat
belt to quickly restrain the occu-
pant by retracting the seat belt
when the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal colli-
sion.
The pretensioner may not activate
in the event of a minor frontal
impact, a side impact or a rear
impact.
nAdjusting the height of the belt (front seats)
Down
Up
Move the height adjuster up and
down as needed until you hear a
click.

58
1-3. Adjustable components (seats, mirrors, steering wheel)
Pre-collision seat belts (front seats of vehicles with pre-collision system)
When the pre-collision sensor detects an obstacle and determines that a
collision is unavoidable, the seat belts lessen collision injury by retracting
the slack in the front seat belts before the collision, thus restraining the
driver and passenger at an earlier stage.
The seat belts will also operate in the event of sudden braking. (→P. 1 9 2 )
nEmergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also lock if
you lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to extend so that
you can move around fully.
nAutomatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger's shoulder belt is completely extended and then retracted even
slightly, the belt is locked in that position and cannot be extended. This feature is
used to hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly. To free the belt again, fully
retract the belt and then pull the belt out once more. (→P. 1 0 4 )
nPregnant women
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt
in the proper way. (→P. 5 6 )
Women who are pregnant should position
the lap belt as low as possible over the hips in
the same manner as other occupants. Extend
the shoulder belt completely over the shoul-
der and position the belt across the chest.
Avoid belt contact over the rounding of the
abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not only a
pregnant woman, but also the fetus could suf-
fer death or serious injury as a result of sud-
den braking or a collision.

Before driving
nPeople suffering illness
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way.
nChild seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle are principally designed for persons of adult size.
lUse a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the child become
large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat belt. (→P. 1 0 0 )
lWhen the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle's seat belt,
follow the instructions on P. 56 regarding seat belt usage.
nReplacing the belt after the pretensioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensioner will activate for the
first collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent collisions.
nSeat belt extender
If your seat belts cannot be fastened securely
because they are not long enough, a person-
alized seat belt extender is available from
your Lexus dealer free of charge.
