■Front passenger occupant classification system precautions
●Do not recline the front passenger seatback so far that it touches a rear seat. This may
cause the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light to be illuminated, which indicates that the
SRS airbags for the front passenger will not activate in the event of a severe accident.
If the seatback touches the rear seat, return the seatback to a position where it does
not touch the rear seat. Keep the front pa ssenger seatback as upright as possible
when the vehicle is moving. Reclining the seatback excessively may lessen the effec-
tiveness of the seat belt system.
●If an adult sits in the front passenger seat , the “AIR BAG ON” indicator light is illumi-
nated. If the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator is illuminated, ask the passenger to sit up
straight, well back in the seat, feet on the floor, and with the seat belt worn correctly. If
the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator still remains illuminated, either ask the passenger to
move to the rear seat, or if that is not possible, move the front passenger seat fully
rearward.
●When it is unavoidable to install a forward- facing child restraint system on the front
passenger seat, install the child restraint sy stem on the front passenger seat in the
proper order. ( P. 6 1 )
●Do not modify or remove the front seats.
●Do not kick the front passenger seat or subj ect it to severe impact. Otherwise, the
SRS warning light may come on to indicat e a malfunction of the front passenger
occupant classification system. In this ca se, contact your Lexus dealer immediately.
●Child restraint systems installed on the rear seat should not contact the front seat-
backs.
●Do not use a seat accessory, such as a cu shion and seat cover, that covers the seat
cushion surface.
●Do not modify or replace the upholstery of the front seat.

■When installing a child restraint system
Observe the following when installing child restraint system to the front passenger seat
if it is unavoidable. The fr ont passenger SRS air bag inflates with considerable speed
and force that if not observed may lead to death or serious injury to the child.
●Never install a rear-facing ch ild restraint system on the front passenger seat even if
the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator lig ht is illuminated. In the event of an accident, the force
of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to
the child if the rear-facing child restraint system is installed on the front passenger
seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint system ma y be installed on the front passenger seat
only when it is unavoidable. A child restra int system that requires a top tether strap
should not be used in the front passenger seat since there is no top tether strap
anchor for the front passenger seat.
●Do not allow the child to lean his/her head or any part of his/her body against the
door or the area of the seat, front pillars or roof side rails from which the SRS side air-
bags or SRS curtain shield ai rbags deploy even if the child is seated in the child
restraint system. It is dangerous if the SRS side and curtain shield airbags inflate, and
the impact could cause death or serious injury to the child.
●When a booster seat is installed, always en sure 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.
●A forward-facing child restraint system may
be installed on the front passenger seat only
when it is unavoidable. When installing a for-
ward-facing child restraint system on the front
passenger seat, move the seat as far back as
possible, and raise the seat to the upper most
position, even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated.
If the head restraint interferes with the child
restraint system inst allation and the head
restraint can be removed, remove the head
restraint.

■If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS airbag warning light not come on
when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems are not available to help
protect you in an accident, which could result in death or serious injury. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Lexus dealer immediately if this occurs.

Maintenance and care
NX200t_OM_USA_OM78081U
●Remove loose dirt using a vacuum cleaner.
●Apply a mild soap solution to the synthetic leather using a sponge or soft cloth.
●Allow the solution to soak in for a few minutes. Remove the dirt and wipe off
the solution with a clean, damp cloth.
■Caring for leather areas
Lexus recommends cleaning the interior of th e vehicle at least twice a year to maintain
the quality of the vehicle’s interior.
■Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foaming-type cleaners available. Use a sponge or brush to
apply the foam. Rub in overlapping circles. Do not use water. Wipe dirty surfaces and let
them dry. Excellent results are obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as possible.
■Seat belts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water using a cloth or sponge. Also check the belts
periodically for excessive wear, fraying or cuts.
■Front side windows with UV protective coat ing (vehicles with UV protective coating)
The front side windows have UV protective coating. To prevent any damage to the UV
protective coating, observe the following:
●If the windows are dirty, gently wipe them with a cloth soaked in water or lukewarm
water as soon as possible.
●If the windows are very dirty, do not open and close them repeatedly.

■Wa t e r i n t h e v e h i c l e
●Do not splash or spill liquid in the vehicle.
Doing so may cause electrical components, etc. to malfunction or catch fire.
●Do not get any of the SRS components or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
(  P. 4 0 )
An electrical malfunction may cause the airbags to deploy or not function properly,
resulting in death or serious injury.
■Cleaning the interior (especially instrument panel)
Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner. The instrument panel may reflect off the wind-
shield, obstructing the driver’s view and leading to an accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.

Votre véhicule est équipé de COUSSINS GONFLABLES INTELLIGENTS
(ADVANCED AIRBAGS) conçus selon les normes de sécurité américaines
applicables aux véhicules à moteur (FMVSS208). Le boîtier électronique de
coussins gonflables (ECU) utilise les informations reçues des capteurs, etc.
détaillés dans le schéma ci-dessus de composition du système pour commander
le déploiement des coussins gonflabl es. Ces informations comprennent des
informations sur la gravité de la collision et les occupants. Le déploiement rapide
des coussins gonflables est obtenu au moyen d’une réaction chimique dans les
dispositifs pyrotechniques, qui produit un gaz inoffensif permettant d’amortir le
mouvement des occupants.
AVERTISSEMENT
■Précautions avec les coussins gonflables SRS
Respectez les précautions suivantes conc ernant les coussins gonflables SRS.
À défaut, des blessures graves, voire mortelles, pourraient s’ensuivre.
●Le conducteur et tous les passagers à bord du véhicule doivent porter leur ceinture
de sécurité correctement.
Les coussins gonflables SRS sont des disp ositifs de protection complémentaires aux
ceintures de sécurité.
●Le coussin gonflable SRS conducteur se déploie avec une puissance considérable et
peut occasionner des blessures graves, voire mortelles, notamment lorsque le
conducteur se trouve très près du coussin gonflable. L’autorité fédérale chargée de la
sécurité routière aux États-Unis, la NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration) conseille:
Sachant que la zone à risque du coussin gonflable conducteur se trouve dans les
premiers 2 à 3 in. (50 - 75 mm) de déploiement, vous disposez d’une marge de
sécurité confortable en vous plaçant à 10 in. (250 mm) du coussin gonflable
conducteur. Cette distance est à mesurer entre le moyeu du volant de direction et le
sternum. Si vous vous tenez à moins de 10 in. (250 mm), vous pouvez changer votre
position de conduite de plusieurs façons:
• Reculez votre siège le plus possible, tout en continuant à pouvoir atteindre
confortablement les pédales.
• Inclinez légèrement le dossier du sièg e. Même si les véhicules sont conçus
différemment, la plupart des conducteurs peuvent maintenir une distance de 10 in.
(250 mm), même si le siège se trouve co mplètement vers l’avant, simplement en
inclinant un peu le dossier du siège vers l’arrière. Si vous avez des difficultés à voir
la route après avoir incliné votre siège, utilisez un coussin ferme et antidérapant
pour vous rehausser ou, si votre véhicu le est équipé du réglage en hauteur du
siège, remontez-le.
• Si votre volant de direction est réglable, inclinez-le vers le bas. Cela vous permet d’orienter le coussin gonflable vers votre buste plutôt que vers la tête et le cou.
Le siège doit être réglé selon les recomm andations de la NHTSA ci-dessus, tout en
conservant le contrôle des pédales et du volant, et la vue des commandes au tableau
de bord.
