231-1. For safe use
1
For safety and security
Adjust the angle of the seatback so 
that you are sitting straight up and 
so that you do not have to lean for-
ward to steer. (P.107)
Adjust the seat so that you can 
depress the pedals fully and so that 
your arms bend slightly at the 
elbow when gripping the steering 
wheel. ( P.107)
Lock the head restraint in place 
with the center of the head restraint 
closest to the top of your ears. 
( P.111)
Wear the seat belt correctly. 
( P.25) Make sure that all occupants are wear-
ing their seat belts before driving the 
vehicle. (
P.25) 
Use a child restraint system appropri-
ate for the child until the child becomes 
large enough to properly wear the 
vehicle’s seat belt. ( P.42)
Make sure that you can see backward 
clearly by adjusting the inside and out-
side rear view mirrors properly. 
( P.114, 115)
For safe driving
For safe driving, adjust the seat and 
mirror to an appropriate position 
before driving.
Correct driving posture
WARNING
Observe the following precautions. 
Failure to do so may result in death or 
serious injury.
A
B

D
●Do not adjust the position of the 
driver’s seat while driving. 
Doing so could cause the driver to lose 
control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between the 
driver or passenger and the seatback. 
A cushion may prevent correct pos-
ture from being achieved, and reduce 
the effectiveness of the seat belt and 
head restraint.
●Do not place anything under the front 
seats. 
Objects placed under the front seats 
may become jammed in the seat 
tracks and stop the seat from locking in 
place. This may lead to an accident 
and the adjustment  mechanism may 
also be damaged.
●Always observe the legal speed limit 
when driving on public roads.
●When driving over long distances, take 
regular breaks before you start to feel 
tired. 
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while 
driving, do not force yourself to con-
tinue driving and take a break immedi-
ately.
Correct use of the seat belts

261-1. For safe use
1To fasten the seat belt, push the 
plate into the buckle until a click 
sound is heard.
2 To release the seat belt, press the 
release button  .
■Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sud-
den stop or on impact. It may also lock if you 
lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy 
motion will allow the belt to extend so that 
you can move around fully.
■Automatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger’s sh oulder belt is com-
pletely extended and then retracted even 
slightly, the belt is locked in that position and 
cannot be extended. This feature is used to 
hold a child restraint system (CRS) firmly. To 
free the belt again, fully retract the belt and 
then pull the belt out once more.
1 Push the seat belt shoulder anchor 
down while pressing the release 
button .
2 Push the seat belt shoulder anchor 
up.
Move the height adjuster up and down as 
needed until you hear a click.
The pretensioners help the seat belts to 
quickly restrain the occupants by 
retracting the seat belts when the vehi-
cle is subjected to certain types of 
severe frontal or side collision or a 
vehicle rollover.
The pretensioners do not activate in the 
NOTICE
■When using a seat belt extender
When releasing the se at belt, press on 
the buckle release button on the 
extender, not on the seat belt. 
This helps prevent damage to the vehicle 
interior and the extender itself.

anchor height (front seats)
WARNING
■Adjustable shoulder anchor
Always make sure the shoulder belt is 
positioned across the center of your 
shoulder. The belt should be kept away 
from your neck, but not falling off your 
shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce 
the amount of protection in an accident 
and cause death or serious injuries in the 
event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or 
accident.

event of a minor frontal impact, a minor 
side impact or a rear impact.
■Replacing the belt after the preten-
sioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involv ed in multiple colli-
sions, the pretensioner will activate for the 
first collision, but will not activate for the 
second or subsequent collisions.
WARNING
■Seat belt pretensioners
Observe the following precautions to 
reduce the risk of injury in the event of 
sudden braking, sudd en swerving or an 
accident. 
Failure to do so may cause death or seri-
ous injury.
●Do not place anything, such as a cush-
ion, on the front passenger’s seat. 
Doing so will disperse the passenger’s 
weight, which prevents the sensor 
from detecting the passenger’s weight 
properly. As a result , the seat belt pre-
tensioner for the front passenger’s seat 
may not activate in the event of a colli-
sion.
●If the pretensioner has activated, the 
SRS warning light will  come on. In that 
case, the seat belt cannot be used 
again and must be replaced at your 
Lexus dealer.
