WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
●Do not hang coat hangers or other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of these items
could become projectiles and may cause deat h or serious injury, should the SRS cur- tain shield airbags deploy.
●If a vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS knee airbag will deploy, be sure to
remove it.
●Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of th e airbags. Such accessories may prevent the
side airbags from activating correctly, disable the system or cause the side airbags to inflate accidentally, resulting in death or serious injury.
●Do not allow anyone to kneel on the passen-
ger seat toward the door or put their head or hands outside the vehicle.
●Do not attach anything to or lean anythingagainst areas such as the dashboard, steeringwheel pad, lower portion of the instrument
panel and door of the glove box. These items can become projectiles when theSRS driver, front passenger and knee airbags
deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas such as a door, windshield glass, side door glass, front or rearpillar, roof side rail and assist grip. (Except for
the speed limit sticker P. 516)

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
●Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS airbag compo- nents.
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS airbags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.
●If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbags have deployed, open a door orwindow to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do so. Wash off any resi-due as soon as possible to prevent skin irritation.
●If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel pad, door ofthe glove box and front and rear pillar garnishes are damaged or cracked, have themreplaced by any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
■Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or perform any of the following modifications without
consulting any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The SRS airbags may malfunction or deploy (inflate) accidentally, causingdeath or serious injury.
●Installation, removal, disassembly and repair of the SRS airbags
●Repairs, modifications, removal or repl acement of the steering wheel, instrument panel, dashboard, glove box, seats or seat upholstery, front, side and rear pillars or
roof side rails
●Repairs or modifications of the front fender, front bumper, or side of the occupant compartment
●Installation of a grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar, etc.), snow plows or winches

■If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
●Slight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may be sustained from SRS airbags, due to the extremely high speed deployment (inflation) by hot gases.
●A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
●Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as well as theseats, the glove box, parts of the front and re ar pillars, and roof side rails may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.
●The windshield may crack.
●Vehicles with ERA-GLONASS: If the SRS ai rbags deploy, the system is designed to send an emergency call* to the Public Safety Answer ing Point (PSAP), notifying them
of the vehicle’s location (without needing to push the “SOS” button) and an agent will attempt to speak with the occupants to ascertain the level of emergency and assistancerequired. If the occupants are unable to communicate, the agent automatically treats
the call as an emergency and helps to di spatch the necessary emergency services. ( P. 384)
*: In some cases, the call cannot be made. (P. 386)
■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set thresh- old level (the level of force corresponding to an approximately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be cons iderably higher in the following situations:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in which the front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes under, the bed of a truck
●Depending on the type of collision, it is possib le that only the seat belt pretensioners will activate.
■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side and curtain shield airbags)
●The SRS side and curtain shield airbags w ill deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to the impact forceproduced by an approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehicle colliding with the vehicle
cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph]).
●The SRS side and curtain shield airbags may also deploy in the event of a severe frontal
collision.
