The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Lexus contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt pretensioners left asthey are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to have the systems of the SRS
airbag and seat belt pretensioner removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer , or another duly qualified and equipped pro- fessional before you scrap your vehicle.
Scrapping of your Lexus
Your vehicle contains batteries and/or accumulators. Do not discard them into theenvironment but cooperate with separate collection (Directive 2006/66/EC).
WARNING
■General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influence of
alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehicle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and reduce coordination, whichcould lead to an accident that could result in death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that distracts the
driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you, your occupants or others.
■General precaution regarding children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicl e, and never allow children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or sh ift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a
danger that children may injure themselv es by playing with the windows, the moon roof, or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely cold tem- peratures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

WARNING
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
■Wearing a seat belt
●Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
●Always wear a seat belt properly.
●Each seat belt should be used by one pe rson only. Do not use a seat belt for more than one person at on ce, including children.
●Lexus recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always use a seat belt
and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
●To achieve a proper seating position, do no t recline the seat more than necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting up straight and well back in
the seats.
●Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.
●Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.
■Pregnant women
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt
in the proper way. ( P. 44)
Women who are pregnant should position the lap belt as low as possible over the hips in the
same manner as other occupants, extending the shoulder belt completely over the shoulderand avoiding belt contact with the rounding of
the abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not only the pregnant woman, but also the fetus could suffer
death or serious injury as a result of sudden braking or a collision.
