RX350/RX200t_EE_OM48F32E
Key of letters inserted in the above table:
X: Not suitable seat position for ISOFIX child restraint systems in this mass
group and/or size class.
IUF: Suitable for ISOFIX forward-facing child restraint systems of “universal”
category approved for use in this mass group.
IL: Suitable for ISOFIX child restraint systems of the categories for “specific
vehicles”, “restricted”, or “semi-universal”, approved for use in this mass
group.
*: If the head restraint interferes with your child restraint system, and the head restraint
can be removed, remove the head restraint. Otherwise, put the head restraint in the
upper most position.
When securing some types of child restrain t systems in second row seats, it may
not be possible to properly use the seat belts in positions next to the child
restraint without interfering with it or affecting seat belt effectiveness. Be sure
your seat belt fits snugly across your shoulder and low on your hips. If it does not,
or if it interferes with the child restraint, move to a different position. Failure to do
so may result in death or serious injury.
The child restraint systems mentioned in the table may not be available outside
the EU area.
●When installing a child restraint in the rear seats, adjust the front seat so that it
does not interfere with the child or child restraint system.
●When using a “LEXUS MINI” or “LEXUS MIDI” adjust the support leg and
ISOFIX connectors as follows:
Lock the ISOFIX connectors
where number 3 can be seen.
Lock the support leg where 4
holes can be seen.
