Adjusting the mirrors WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.●
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 dr iver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce the effec-
tiveness of the seat be lt and head restraint.●
Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed under the fr ont seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and stop
the seat from locking in plac e. This may lead to an accident and the adjustment mech-
anism may also be damaged. ●
Always observe the legal speed limi t 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 drivin g, do not force yourself to continue driving

Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock th e belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also lock if you
lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion w ill allow the belt to ex tend so that you can
move around fully. ■
Automatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is completely extended and then retracted even
slightly, the belt is locked in that position and cannot be extended. This feature is used to
hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly. To free the belt again, fully retract the belt
and then pull the belt out once more. (  P. 61)■
When the third center seat belt cannot be extended (if equipped)
■
Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle were principally designed for persons of adult size. ●
Use a child restraint system appropriate fo r the child, until the child becomes large
enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. (  P. 56)●
When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt, follow
the instructions on P. 30 regarding seat belt usage.■
Replacing the belt after the pr etensioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensioner will activate for the first
collision, but will not activate for th e second or subsequent collisions.■
Seat belt extenderPut your fingers between the seat belt and the
holder.

LX570_OM_OM60R07U_(U) WARNING ■
When the children are in the vehicle
Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes twisted around
a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or othe r serious injuries that could result in death.
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used to cut the
belt. ■
Seat belt pretensioners ●
Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat. Doing so will
disperse the passenger’s weight, which prevents the sensor from detecting the pas-
senger’s weight properly. As a result, the seat belt pretensioner for the front passen-
ger’s seat may not activate in the event of a collision. ●
If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS wa rning light will come on. In that case, the
seat belt cannot be used again and must be replaced at your Lexus dealer. ■
Adjustable shoulder anchor
Always make sure the shoulder belt is posi tioned 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. (  P. 33)■
When using the third center seat belt (if equipped)
■
Seat belt damage and wear ●
Do not damage the seat belts by allowing th e belt, plate, or buckle to be jammed in
the door. ●
Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose parts. Do
not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged seat belt cannot protect an
occupant from death or serious injury. ●
Ensure that the belt and plate are locked and the belt is not twisted.
If the seat belt does not function correct ly, immediately contact your Lexus dealer.●
Replace the seat assembly, incl uding the belts, if your vehi cle has been involved in a
serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage. ●
Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the seat belts.
Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Lexus dealer. Inappropriate handling
may lead to inco rrect operation.Do not use the third center seat belt with either
buckle released. Fastening only one of the
buckles may result in death or serious injury in
case of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.
