■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 hybrid system, this could mean that these systems are not available
to help protect you in an a ccident, which could result in death or serious injury. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer immediately if this occurs.

Maintenance and care
NX300h_OM_USA_OM78082U
■Caring for leather areas
Lexus recommends cleaning the interior of the 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 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 R N I N G
■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, such as on the floor, in the hybrid battery
(traction battery) air vents, and in the luggage compartment.
Doing so may cause the hybrid battery, 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 2 )
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.
