AVERTISSEMENT
■Précautions relatives aux coussins gonflables SRS
●Si un recouvrement de vinyle est placé sur la zone de déploiement du coussin gonfla-
ble SRS de protection des genoux, veillez à le retirer.
●N’utilisez pas d’accessoires recouvrant les parties du siège où les coussins gonflables
SRS latéraux se déploient, car ces accessoires pourraient entraver le déploiement
des coussins gonflables. De tels accessoires peuvent empêcher les coussins gonfla-
bles latéraux de se déployer correctement, rendre le système inopérant ou provo-
quer accidentellement le déploiemen t des coussins gonflables latéraux,
occasionnant des blessures graves, voire mortelles.
●Ne frappez pas et n’appliquez pas une pression importante à l’emplacement des
composants des coussins gonflables SRS.
Cela peut provoquer un mauvais fonctionnement des coussins gonflables SRS.
●Ne touchez à aucun composant des coussi ns gonflables SRS immédiatement après
leur déploiement (gonflage), car ils pourraient être chauds.
●Si vous avez de la difficulté à respirer après le déploiement des coussins gonflables
SRS, ouvrez une portière ou une glace pour laisser entrer l’air, ou quittez le véhicule
si vous pouvez le faire en toute sécurité. Dès que possible, nettoyez tous les résidus
afin d’éviter les irritations cutanées.
●Si les emplacements de stockage des coussins gonflables SRS, tels que le tampon de
volant et les garnitures des montants avan t et arrière, sont endommagés ou fissurés,
faites-les remplacer par votre concessionnaire Lexus.

SRS
Ne mettez pas votre véhicule au rebut et n’effectuez aucune des modifications suivan-
tes sans d’abord consulter votre concessionnaire Lexus. Les coussins gonflables SRS
pourraient fonctionner de manière incorrecte ou se déployer (gonfler) accidentelle-
ment, ce qui serait susceptible d’occasionner des blessures graves, voire mortelles.
●Installation, retrait, démontage et réparation des coussins gonflables SRS
●Réparations, modifications, retrait ou remplacement du volant, du tableau de bord,
de la planche de bord, de la boîte à gants, des sièges ou du capitonnage des sièges,
des montants avant, latéraux et arrière, ou des brancards de pavillon

l’habitacle
●Installation d’une protection de calandre (barre safari, barre kangourou, etc.), de
lames de déneigement ou de treuils
●Modifications du système de suspension du véhicule
●Installation d’appareils électroniques tels qu’un émetteur-récepteur radio ou un lec-
teur de CD
